Kyla Irwin

[Geew1992]

has taken over where Lawler left off. Biggest supporter on the bench.

Let's not down Irwin. She was the first thing other than MW off of the bench. I still believe she will be a contributor off of the bench.

I think Kyla looks better with every minute she earns. Certainly a work in progress, but that also describes most other people doing most other things.

Still, with Geno, player growth and maturity are important. Kyla has shown both. I like this kid, win or lose.

I wasn’t downing her. I’m just sayin I respect her intensity on the bench.

She drops in the rotation with a healthy Camara. Also, Lou being out moves Z up and Irwin is the only health big off the bench at the moment.

The best part of her game imho is her passing. She has a good feel for entry passes into the post from the wing or key. Jury out on other aspects of her game but I expect improvement.

No the best part of her game is----no fear of the bigs and no fear of tossing it up. She will mix it up with anyone.

Great attitude but suspect she would on more of a lower level team. She seems to enjoy the UConn commitment and has invested in being in better shape and agree, is somewhat fearless in her play

At the moment the only issue I see with Irwin is that her footwork is about a half second slow. That's why she gets caught in the wrong spot and commits a lot of fouls. That can be improved and I think she will over the course of the season.

I always thought Kyla had potential. I was very happy to see her get in the game early today. I always feel these girls just need to see one go down and then a good flow will follow. A good example of this is with Andi.
I think Kyla has game and really think with some minutes she will develop into a solid player.

Irwin seems far more self assured on the court this year.................she's going to grab some rebounds and make the occasional shot................if nothing else you know she's going to give her all..............

I believe with Molly and Kyla if work, attitude, effort and dedication made them STARS---Then STARS they would be! I have no idea what that special something we see in Megan Walker is that separates her from some other Frosh or Sophs. For their sake, my Christmas wish is for both to get some of that.

I didn't see your Hi Five comment as disrespect--heck even KLS does it--doing the hi Five for a teammate is the highest form of respect. Your's was a good post, thanks.
