Message: [QUOTE="Tonyc, post: 2977137, member: 73"] Another great lesson from Geno. I learned along time a go. Set a goal and work towards it inch by inch its a sinch yard by yard its very hard. Take small steps and its alot easier and less pressure. Its a marathon not a sprint. It takes time to get rid of bad habits and learn new habits. Work on fundamentals every day until they become reflexive and they just happen without you having to think about them. It takes time and you must understand that. Repetition is the mother of skill and only repetition learned correctly. This is where good coaching comes in. Learn the right way to do it and practice it until you dont have to think about. This is why imo its so important to have the opportunity to play for Geno. Because he holds you accountable for your practice. He teachs you the right way to do something and expects you to practice it until you get it with guidance from his coaches. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and thinking things will change. At UConn you learn the right way to execute and do things and you do them until you cant get them wrong. Thats why Tina Steph Kiah Stewie have become great and have shown so much improvement because they were committed and trusted in their coaching staff. Now look at them and look at some others who had great potential and didnt come to UConn. IMO many of those great HS players who didnt come to UConn didnt reach their full potential...some did many didnt. [/QUOTE]
