Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3712352, member: 5798"] Ater reading an article in today’s (Oct 22) edition of the Hartford Courant, and listening to Geno’s take on Aaliyah, I’m convinced that she is as special as Paige. I've been reading articles and reading comments by my esteemed colleagues here in the yard all summer. I’ve have not read one article or comment that even hints that Bueckers is not all that she appears to be, or that the hype is "fake news". :confused: Everyone from former teammates and coaches to current teammates and coaches ALL say the same thing, she’s special. Ditto for Aaliyah. In a recent interview, Christyn Williams said 3 times how “tough” she is. She doesn’t take plays off. She’s relentless on both ends of the court. Needless to say Williams is convinced of her aggressiveness and skill set. Geno has compared her to Napheesa Collier, saying that she has the same motor and competitiveness. She’s extremely coachable, and wants to be not just good, but great. She said it was a ”no-brainer” choosing UConn because "it's UConn", and she wants to be coached hard, and coached by the best. One poster called her a beast (respectively). It should be very exciting to see both of them on the court together. Imagine what play will look like once these two get use to each other, and can run a play with a simple glance, similar to a quarterback and his receiver with no words or gestures necessary. To quote retired NFL linebacker Bart Scott, “can’t wait“. [/QUOTE]
