Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 2919153, member: 5798"] I sure hope so. It’s going to be a challenge replacing Lou and Napheesa next year. That challenge will be lessened with Jones and Boston in the fold. I don’t want to be a harbinger of doom, but there will be two starting positions that must be filled. That's where Jones and Boston come in. Most BY'ers think Boston is a lock, while the yard is split on Jones' final destination. Geno needs players that can make plays on both ends of the court (make plays, score and play defense) to be competitive next year. They both start as freshmen if they come here. While I'm not doing "Chicken Little" just yet, looking at the bench right now, plus Griffin, I am concerned. Are those players Geno will choose from already in house? In years past, UConn has survived not getting certain highly coveted recruits, because he already had talented freshmen waiting in the wings to step up. The consensus (according to posts and comments here in the yard and the media) is that UConn is presently lacking quality depth. How can they lose two All Americans, not add any top rated recruits (No slight meant towards Griffin who is rated[URL='http://www.espn.com/high-school/girls-basketball/recruiting/rankings/_/class/2019'] #33 in Hoopgiurlz[/URL]), and remain dominant? I’m not panicking, but I am seriously concerned. I question if they can survive not getting both Jones and Boston. If I’m missing something here, someone please enlighten me. Thoughts? :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
