This, however, [U]slightly[/U] overshadows that ALL of Geno's recruits have expressed coming to Storrs to grow into the BEST basketball players that they could be. (... and along the way.. evolve into the best individuals they can) They ALL come knowing the drill... "We like your skills as players. You all come with talents & credentials. If you devote yourselves, we believe, together, we can achieve your ultimate goal. You are promised no guarantee of playing time. You are assured of enough time and sweat in practice to establish your role in the Team-scheme. You have no lock on any particular position... The Team will need you (and use your newly developed skills) to play where (and when) you'll be most successful for the Team." Every year brings a different squad... a different mix. Does 2016-2017 promise anything? It only promises a schedule... It offers one game at a time for an entire season. The only assurance we have, (based on experience), is that the March team will be better honed than the First Night game. In Geno we trust. In CD we trust. In devotion we trust. In Team we believe.
