Message: [QUOTE="Redux, post: 4447105, member: 11089"] The Senior players you're alluding to played their hearts out. They were what we had and they were rightfully UConn starters and the team would not have been as successful as it was without them. There were times, many times, when each of them played at an elite level. The team led by these players over-achieved, IMO; I appreciate the great seasons they gave us. And BTW it's far from certain that those seasons will be matched; that's why they play the games. But nobody can accuse you of being incorrect. You can't watch the speed and decisiveness of the ball being brought down the court now and not admit the huge difference. Elsewhere, you can't watch the core consistency that has replaced the Jekyll-Hyde performances we got from those players and not admit that a newer, higher base level of performance has been established. This is a better team. No harm in acknowledging that and moving forward. [/QUOTE]
