Message: [QUOTE="Alydar, post: 4283873, member: 730"] This whole idea that Geno needs to abandon his style and join the Pat Summitt Brigade and learn to win with brute strength and a hundred offensive rebounds is just a pile of something smelly. The only guard that played well for SCar is gone and they are forced to use a transfer or a zero-experience freshman at pg. I didn't see Fletcher on any lists of AA's . And while plenty on this board had serious doubts about NPOY Bueckers coming back from a relatively minor knee issue, they have no issues with Johnson (great promise) as vying for the starting pg spot. I guess an ACL is much less serious than a bone bruise. Never mind that Johnson has no experience as a college pg. Fudd was a question mark though, right? Some of those same people needed Bueckers to "show them something" before rating her. Frankly I think some of the posters here are Creme surrogates. UConn loses the championship game and now Geno is expected to dismantle his entire philosophy and become a disciple of the Summitt/Staley theory of basketball? Summitt won 3 in a row in the 90's and Geno didn't change, but SCar wins one and you all sound like callers into sports talk radio. It's always the same, lose a big game and the fans want a new team and a new approach. Next it will be that Geno/Daley team is an anachronism and new blood is needed. What ever happened to practicing and getting better? SCar lost to Stanford last year but I didn't see Dawn abandon her style. Has Tara announced that Stanford is becoming a guard-oriented team? When UConn plays bulldozer basketball I will become a [U]very[/U] casual fan. [/QUOTE]
