Message: [QUOTE="MD#12Fan, post: 4088505, member: 8636"] Great points as always! Devil's Advocate: I've made this point before: when Geno recruits a young college student to UConn, a team affiliated with a state university, he has a responsibility to that young person in terms of development and even PT IMO. Is college basketball really, "selling waterfront property in Phoenix"? I would also argue that the well-being of the young person supersedes winning NC's. So, if one "screws up" and stockpiles, on-purpose or accidentally, 5 or 6 3-men, like this edition of UConn WCBB, it is up to Geno and the staff to figure out how to be fair to these athletes. I am always a proponent of using more people. (I won't go there here) For you bashers, it's not about NC's. NC's are the product of integrity and excellence, qualities Geno and UConn WCBB are know for. This is not the Seattle Storm or Phoenix Mercury. It's not good enough to say, "this is college basketball now". If it is, it must change immediately. [/QUOTE]
