Message: [QUOTE="Longtime fan, post: 3324717, member: 7093"] I agree with you , Dude. The fifth starter, if we are to progress as a viable competitor in the tournament, will not be ( cannot be ) Kyla. She played like she did as a freshman....pretty much invisible, but with " little harm done." I was hoping for more confidence, more polished shooting skills ( she can hit threes ), and a more active contribution. Mostly, she was just taking up space. I was surprised that he made Danger play 40 minutes ( maybe she was off and I missed it ). But not 30 seconds for Molly, and the PG transfer from Murray state is ( in my view ) already "dead in the water." Geno made a comment about her not being accustomed to the speed and pace with which Uconn plays. In other words, Murray State is not UConn. I don't think we'll see her at all unless there is a blowout. I saw the same good defense from Aubrey that you mentioned. It will take a couple months for the game to slow down for her, but she looks to be a talent. Nonetheless, if the NCAA keeps Westbrook in the unavailable category, we are going to struggle. One key injury and the lights go out. Not sure what we have in the player I call, " Poland." She looks a bit slow, possibly overweight, and she did not shine in any dimension of the game. We'll give a pass to first game nerves. But she is not immediately reminiscent of Svetlana, is she? [/QUOTE]
