Message: [QUOTE="eebmg, post: 2415083, member: 7548"] I just don't believe the freshman are stepping up in any way that Geno thinks warrants time. I think Geno's mindset is that unless they wow me and do something the team needs really well, he will not give them meaningful minutes. It's almost totally on the player to sink or swim. This approach is so foreign to any other place where trying to develop freshman (and perhaps appeasing) by giving them minutes seems to be standard practice. I think most people are uncomfortable in a true meritocracy and would not implement it so unyieldingly but that is why UConn is so unique. Everyone needs to deal with it and if some players transfer, C'est la vie [/QUOTE]
