Message: [QUOTE="HopJim, post: 3541459, member: 6986"] A few thoughts after reading: -Not sure who the writer, Matt Ward, is but great article. Don't agree with all his predictions but he did his homework better than most writers in years and brought up a number of interesting comments. -I don't remember a season where transfers and frosh will play such a big role in the National Championship. UConn will be like many teams in its reliance on frosh to play critical roles in critical games. -Matt comments that Boston could be top player in country. Certainly a top 10 player but much will depends on her conditioning. I watched every game I could that she played in last year and saw some amazing performances and some where she was good, but seemed slow and not in game shape. While I wish UConn had more size to defend her (likely in National Championship game), I suspect ONO will be stronger and understand more of the schemes needed to stop a big body. I also think this coming years UConn team will be faster, quicker and better passers, all skills needed to beat South Carolina. [/QUOTE]
