Obviously the likelihood of winning multiple championships during your time there helps that.. but it's still amazing to me. Williams could be the star just about anywhere she goes.. but instead she's gonna go to UConn (IMO, I've already convinced myself this is where she's going) and split playing time with a bevy of really good to great guards/wings and be completely fine with it... she's going to be on the same team with Megan Walker, Charli Collier, Katie Lou Samuelson, Napheesa Collier etc.. these are all players that have the ability and skill to rightfully dominate the ball on their team.. but instead, they come to UConn and buy into the team concept and do what's best for the program. THAT is what's amazing to me and as much as UConn winning everything bugs me.. THAT is why Geno gets my respect. He's a treasure. There's no other school in WCBB that can do this. No, not even Notre Dame. This is just another thing that separates UConn and it's also another reason the rest of us will always be chasing the Huskies (well, for as long as Geno is there). [/QUOTE]
