Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 3768418, member: 6927"] I, as you know, cry not for Notre Dame, but I do empathize with that "what could've been" wistfulness on the un-landed recruit. Try as some have to diminish UConn's success with the trope of "Geno gets all the players," he's had plenty of the painful swings-and-misses: Tamika Catchings, Nicky Anosike and, of recent fame, Aaliyah Boston are just three that come to mind right away. As for Iowa, Czinano is a returning all-Big Ten first teamer and is playing like it. While they could use some more consistently threatening offensive weapons to balance things out a bit for Czinano and Clark, I'd say 95% of Iowa's problems are on the defensive end right now. Over their first 5 games, their opponents are averaging over 84 ppg. Just imagine where they'd be right now if Clark wasn't going berserk on the scoring with 30+ games on the reg. [/QUOTE]
