Message: [QUOTE="Triad, post: 3396769, member: 9676"] Sitting may be a message but what exactly IS the message? She failed to follow orders?? She didn't do as she has the talent tod do? I could go on, you get the idea! In place of public messages an effective method that works with many people for many reasons is: Teach her! This is what you did wrong this is how to handle it! Now that works when there is an exact FIX. But what happened to Olivia was a TEAM--Coaching and players-- failure or lack of size--. Olivia was taken out of the game by Baylors size and athleticism. If Uconn sees that again how will Uconn overcome that?? Not with the lack of size and lack of Bench Uconn will have until next season. What is the lesson for Olivia to learn from THAT? I, as [USER=1131]@JoePgh[/USER] suggested, believe more than anything Geno took her out of the Baylor game for Olivia's benefit and to protect her. I doubt seriously Geno had suggestions for how Olivia could have played better or how she could have scored when ONLY 3 of the 7 or 8 players scored. True there is a lot of basketball and a lot of games to be won that can and shall be won. Olivia is talented, intelligent, capable, and determined all that happened in the Baylor game was not her fault. She is what she is and that's pretty good. She will be AA before she graduates.
