Message: [QUOTE="Stymie, post: 4303362, member: 11176"] 1)-yes, Dorka will somewhat fill the void. But was ineffectual in SC first meeting when USC DOMINATED, once again, on the boards. And while I do have great affection for Aubrey nothing, to this point of her Husky career, indicates that she will provide much more than a nominal contribution. 2)-Coach has recruited some future relief. But it is the opinion of most that “bigs” require more time to adjust to the D-1 game. 3)-apparently , you’re hanging your hat on meteoric improvement of Amari. Less than even money on that one. Improvement, sure, but she’s got a long way to go -based on what she’s shown so far- to contribute in a big way. At this this point, I consider a disappointment. Aayliah will need to continue her trend line-not take steps backward as she did early last season. Next year will be year 3 of Paige’s career at Storrs-3/4 over. IMHO- unless offense can be calibrated to bring our size closer to the net and they learn to BOX OUT, we’ll top out in the Final four again next year. I do not understand why we continually keep Edwards et al at the top of the key or outside the elbow looking to pass. That is not a shot that really needs to be defended. I would use that as more of a different look. Let the shooters hunt, screen for each other or get to “their” spots to pull the trigger. It would be a crying shame for Paige to end her UCONN career with only one Championship ( and Azzi with two). JMHO and respectfully submitted. [/QUOTE]
