Message: [QUOTE="BroadwayVa, post: 3035116, member: 6118"] That was the point of a post I made to Charlieball this past summer. Uconn does not need a number one, 2, or 5--they need one big, strong, teachable, quick learner--Step wasn't the exception to prove the point, she and others like her are available for the asking. (No not Steff this year). I suspect the REAL choice is an European who is big that can hit the floor with fundamentals and provide good minutes. Transfers have been notoriously needing retraining to fit the Uconn program--that takes 2 years. We must remember Steff as a Senior was much different than that Frosh. However, she was thrown at Griner and did a decent, not great job. The Nurse from Wikitywalk, StoningtonMystic area did a great job on Griner .But wasn't a superb top of the line Center. Moore was a project for 3 years and then provided nice minutes (no not Maya). Point of this is there are 39th ranked centers and there are 39th ranked centers--some get to be Steff and other do not. . [/QUOTE]
