Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 5100348, member: 9844"] That Texas game was part of a great 6 game start to her sophomore season. I remember her PER (player efficiency ratio) was around 30 which drew some All American comments early in the season. Then the knee injury where Aaliyah fell back into her ruined the rest of the season. Her PER fell all the way down to low 20's by year end, which means she was probably only around 15 the rest of the season (about average). The glass half full interpretation would be those were the only 6 games she has been healthy during her entire Uconn career, and that is the level she could achieve if healthy again. Remember she was bothered by her foot pretty much her whole freshmen season. With that view Azzi has never played with Paige when both were healthy. Azzi only healthy at the start of the season Paige missed entirely. We thought we would see that combination of two back to back number 1 recruits together for three glorious years, and here we are still waiting for both to be healthy at the same time for the first time. Maybe later this year! [/QUOTE]
