Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 4393195, member: 12088"] I loved MoJeff at UConn. She was so scrappy, so quick, so tenacious. when she played against SC it was glorious. I don’t mind comparing her to Nika, because they share some qualities. It’s unfair to Nika to hold her to such a standard given where she’s starting from. But I think she may surprise us with what she can do this year. This is the real pleasure of thinking about the challenge Nika faces. If she can live up to it, even if she’s not playing at MoJeff’s level, it will still be wonderful. Folks mistakenly assume we’re just trashing Nika. But that’s not it at all. I’m just trying to bring it all into focus for myself to better appreciate whatever Nika manages to achieve. It would diminish her to pretend there aren’t huge hurdles facing her. I have high hopes for her. [/QUOTE]
