Message: [QUOTE="BroadwayVa, post: 2142701, member: 6118"] Interesting thoughts---I read this and was about to argue against it--but--you make some good points. Ones I didn't consider I would have argued that : Uconn had 2 or so weeks between end of season and NCAA's OR Uconn played it core 5 less and less as the season progressed ( but still 27 or more minutes). My final argument would have been---they are kids. But you are certainly correct in saying : When the body is depleted the mind finds it hard to think. In game situations --each decision must be a reaction to an event--if you delay you are lost. Over the years Geno has stayed with typically 8 players ---everyone else has to wait for PT especially in the NC's --other coaches, not as successful as Geno, rotate people in and out of games nearly every stoppage of the clock--keeping everyone a bit fresher. As a Uconn fan , for a long time, I praised the conditioning of Uconn's players--but that comes at a price (too much continuous PT) --I doubt you'll see that next year. [/QUOTE]
