Message: [QUOTE="msf22b, post: 3434774, member: 656"] Funny Tony, here I am, known in the past as one of the Kings of pessimism...and I'm not down. UConn did not lose last night because the opposition was more athletic, bigger, younger :), whatever. We lost because we stunk up the joint, just as we have in the other big losses (and some of the wins). The team is [U]underachieving,[/U] our #1's are ridiculously underachieving...that means they have the potential to get better, much better. The season can still be turned around; we can go into the NCAA's and scare a whole bunch of people. Is it gonna happen? I surely wouldn't bet my modest pension on it...but it might. Remember Bria Hartley a few years ago, so depressed by her game, that she took herself out of the starting lineup...and all those losses to ND, wearing on them. And then it turned around and she along with that gifted freshman...what was her name? destroyed ND in the semi's of the dance. I'm fascinated to anticipate what rabbits Geno can pull out of the hat...Can this totally dysfunctional team play UConn ball? perhaps. Stay tuned. [/QUOTE]
