Message: [QUOTE="msf22b, post: 3468956, member: 656"] There is this team and this team's issues, trying to get back to the final-4, making progress, Geno is optimistic, he says (yesterday) he likes what he sees...Is he right or is it a conn...All will be clear in a very few weeks...My fervent hope is that we compete like mad; play our best game...Then let the chips fall where they may...There's a lot of talent out there (in addition to UConn). And there is next year's team, a completely different animal; lots of options at guard with proven and semi-unproven talent...and you can forget about not playing freshman. Does anyone actually think Paige doesn't play...even start? No one can foresee what will happen...you can't play more than three guards, there will be a spirited dogfight for playing time...and we all know that Geno prefers to play a smallish group. I suspect someone, whomever will be pushed aside (to some extent). Back to this season...Aubrey had a wonderful game yesterday...her motor and athleticism overwhelmed the smaller and over-matched Temple kids...but remember the situ...she came in (not as a guard) but as a sub for Olivia...a role she been seen in regularly...and is likely to be less effective again the like of the Herbert Harrigan's of the world. But who knows? If she takes half a million jump shots this summer; she may turn into a respectable threat at guard or wing, but for now, she is wisely used as resident spark plug...Geno's understands her strengths and uses it skillfully. The question in all of this is: how well does this season's group perform against top competition? I'm hopeful and rooting like mad, just a bit more skeptical than Geno's public persona based on past performance. [/QUOTE]
