Message: [QUOTE="msf22b, post: 4152417, member: 656"] This is the most difficult year to handicap that I can recall. So many variables (even despite UConn) So many unknowns. I can't even begin to formulate an answer to the OP's query For UConn to return to dominance... it obviously depends not only on the individual health of missing stars. But how the returning players fit into the scheme that has existed in their absence. One can recall that Nika became less effective last season as the team's general health improved. There is no guarantee that Caroline and Dorka will be as effective as they have been. But if they are and Nika is as assertive as she was in her best form last season Then this could be a world-beater team; even without much help from the seniors. And I haven't even mentioned the budding super-stars But who knows if that will happen? As above... So many variables, so many unknowns. [/QUOTE]
