Message: [QUOTE="Husky68, post: 2448869, member: 173"] Kemba or Amida or Taliek (smile wise) are not coming through the door. Have a bunch of quiet/serious guys on the court (maybe Anderson is bit more demonstrative). Watched the last game again and looked for body language on the court and bench. This is a serious team trying to be good and get better. Faults, sure there are plenty. Larrier's handle, over reacting to drives at the expense of 3 point line, Adams shooting, etc; but this was a game where quiters would have quit. Guys were very supportive of each other (in their quiet way), didn't see any WTF was that looks. I was impressed how hard they worked for 45 minutes in a game where "everyone" thought it should be a cake walk (except the opponent). UConn won because they out worked the opponent not out played them. Ollie and his 2 sidekicks seemed to me to be in the game the entire time and liked their interactions with players and game decisions. Don't see all the drama on Ollie should do this or that. You guys want Bruce Pearl or Calamari type on bench, I'll take what we have instead. You want Duke/Kentucky/Kansas type recruiting become a behind the scenes booster with connections and money and go to it. Am I saying we win #5, no, but this is no dumpster fire (yet). Will we underperform what's needed for Ollie to keep job, could but sure hope not. We are not an elite team so there will be a thin line between great/acceptable/disaster. [/QUOTE]
