Auriemma owns this one.

My point was "offering advice". It seems our "watching" (but not doing) somehow qualifies us to "offer advice" such as "Dolson is being used incorrectly". I don't quite get it.
To me it seems completely appropriate for the team to set PERFECTION as it's goal, but it's entirely unreasonable for fans to demand attainment of that standard. I've seen a whole lot of excellence on display with this team all year - even in all three losses.
Lastly - doesn't the coach always own every loss? What loss would you say the coach doesn't own? This even applies in pro sports though there it is not only coach but also GM and owner.

Well said. I would simply add that it is also entirely unreasonable if not arrogant for fans to think the team could attain perfection if only they were in charge, not Geno. I don't quite get that.

msf22b, Your posts are too difficult to comprehend. Whatever button you hit makes it very difficult to read the words and impossible to respond to by hitting the reply button.

What you've written makes little sense anyway.

Wait, he'll own up to his shortcomings this season, soon.

Why would he? He has us to do it.

Maybe. They'll likely have a better connection than Stewart and Dolson. Tuck knows what's going on out there. Watching Stewart running around aimlessly on offense last night was enough to make me want to pull my hair out. You could see Stefanie's frustration as she's trying to figure out what Stewart is doing and where's she's going.

I've also seen Tuck push Stewie with her hand to guide her to the correct spot on more than one occasion.

Having said that, I'm still hopeful that Stewie can play through the rough patches because we really need her contributions. Obviously if her night is turning into a complete cluster** then yeah, sit her down.

I'm in favor of letting her play through it because I still believe in the upside (though I don't like that word). It's just that she has to figure out a way to score more than 5 points in 40 minutes. If Tuck can figure it out, Stewart can too. No time like the present!

Yep - I said in a post last week that when you have that much talent (Stewie), part of the beauty is that you're never *that* far away from making great plays! If you know what I mean.
