That sample is too small to be meaningful. She was 0-4 against Baylor and 0-2 against ND. And 3 of the shots were in the opening ends. 2 in one position, all wide open. She played 17 minutes total.
Overall, UConn has excellent stats for the season. First in many categories. Unfortunately, UConn is often held to a higher standard. So, the only stat that really matters is that UConn has two wins and two losses against the top five teams, with those two losses being on their home court.
I agree, and both of those losses are filled with sufficient good news to believe they are readily reversible losses.
I agree, "If you can't say something bad about someone, don't say anything" Do these kids come where you work, and criticize you.
My simple theory in these situations is to "Trust Geno!"
That's true, but no one has given 5 years. All the girls play hard. Some are still on the learning curve and never played in a game of this magnitude. Their time will come, as all will. Don't forget, six of the young ladies are either freshman or soph's. They to will have to earn it.
What does Heather Buck have to do with your post?
They haven't had Hartley's height right in more the 2 1/2 years.
So, are you seriously blaming Doty for these losses?
No one has a solution, but they all can say what not to do. Typical complaining for the sake of complaining. It ia getting so tiresome.
What she has earned is a short leash and quick hook. I have a lot of respect for how hard she has worked to come back from serious injuries but the truth is she isn't much of a player anymore. She doesn't shoot well, her passes aren't accurate and she gets beat regularly on defense.
Same thing has been true of Bria much of the season, Breanna is struggling, too. Even Kelly hasn't been as sharp as she was early in the year. Caroline no matter what is still the best available at organizing the offense. She is playing under 20 minutes per game. She was part of the great start against Baylor. She took and missed 4 3s one of which was a shot to beat the shot clock. The other 3 were wide open but not entirely spot up jumpers. Geno will limit her time when he isn't getting from her what he sees as needed.
What? Are you aware that during the first few minutes of the game where UCONN got up by 11, Doty was running the team for most of it.
Yes, Caroline understood she had been a dumba$$ and Geno affirmed that was her normal state of being. He did not say they lost because she was a dumba$$ Monday night more than everyone else. Caroline in her maturity understood the situation that is why someday she will be an excellent coach.
