Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 4695157, member: 12088"] It's no disrespect to Caitlin to say that Paige is the best player in WCBB. Caitlin is pretty good too. But fans gotta fan, and this is a Husky board. As for folks who think that even though UConn will be better this year than last, every other team will be better, too... well that's just false. Lots of teams will be worse for the talent they lost to graduation or injury, and others may return to form if key players rehab effectively. Who's not likely to be as good as last season? Louisville, Iowa, Stanford, MD, ND, Iowa St., Indiana, NC St., Villanova, DePaul, Marquette. If everything breaks the right way for ND, they probably belong in the next list. Who might be as good or even a little better? SC, LSU,VPI, tOSU, Utah, UCLA, Tennessee, Texas, Baylor. Are any of these teams likely to be as much better than last season as the Huskies are likely to be? That's hard to imagine, which doesn't mean they won't be tough. They were all good last season (or at least for parts of it) and are likely to pose challenges to opponents again this season. But a fully healthy Husky squad has the potential to run the table against all of them. Will the huskies need some better karma than they've had recently? Yes, of course, and they'll need a couple of freshman to step up as well. [/QUOTE]
