Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 4285255, member: 3535"] I agree he hasn't nailed some spots. He's not getting/producing that other (2nd) college A/A. lately. And as I have said - they have had a lot of bad luck. Stevens leaving them and Camara always being hurt- what other top player is going to come so late in the process? Collier was coming and it took an extreme Hurricane for her to ultimately decline the offer. Last year we would have had some extra athleticism with Walker (she was small but physical for her size especially if you put her at the SF which could've happened last year.) but she left - a 1st team A/A as a junior. Who loses what UCONN has (lose your only 1st team a/.a as a junior for example) while still getting consistently where UCONN goes? What teams loses this talent and are still able to keep getting back to Final Fours? And Aubrey Griffin was a freak athlete - she went down. And yes they could use more athleticism. While other teams could use more skill. Stanford apparently could have used more skill, right? It;s nice that we as fans are bummed out about only being in Final Fours but if Walker comes back- we are favored to win it all last year. If Stevens comes back or Camara was healthy early on we would have probably been favored to win it all. If Collier comes etc . . . Bad luck. [/QUOTE]
