Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 3161189, member: 1414"] Of course not. That's why I said "not saying this team has any chance at it". What I also said is that the range of outcomes is very wide. For example, Tennessee was a #3 seed two years ago (and a #2 seed last year), yet in 2016-17 they were a .500 team. They did it mostly with 3* kids who matured and improved. The 17-18 Vols were picked 13th in the SEC preseason and won the regular season championship. Next year's UConn team could be just over .500 on the low side, or it could be a solid top 25 team with a strong seed in the tournament. Final four? No. But Sweet 16 certainly is possible. There is just no way to know how much impact the freshmen will have, and how soon or how much improvement we see from the returning players. If enough "ifs" resolve positively, the team could make a huge jump. [/QUOTE]
