All I can say is WOW. What a show. I guess I was wrong UConn wasn't rusty. UConn is explosive on both sides of the ball and a key is nothing seems to bother them. They run their sets and trust what theyre doing in their sets and its just a matter of time before the game is over almost before it starts. If last nite is any indication of what is to come and I do believe this team will get better with the freshman and Morgan Tuck getting more playtime and experience this just may be the Greatest Team UConn has ever had. It reminds me from a talent level of the team that lost Shea and Svet when Diana was a freshman. That team lost to ND in the FF with Shea and Svet on the bench with injuries.
It all starts with confidence, being unselfish and then defense and this team has it. This team has a terrific mindset. It also has so much talent its mindboggling. For opponents how do you defend UConn? You have to hope UConn has an off nite. You have right now 7 players who can put up numbers. As Ek Williams and Edwards gain more confidence and playtime they will be big contributors. When Eks shot starts falling it will not be raining treys it will be a Tsumani of treys.
A lot of questions answered last nite. The biggest is a healthy KML and Tuck. The question of Nurse and Tuck coming off the bench is crazy. How good is UConn with Nurse and Tuck coming in off the bench? Its crazy they are so good and will only get better over the next few weeks.
With about 9+ minutes left Geno brought in the freshman. Yes there were some mistakes and very evident on defense with UCD getting some easy baskets. Geno will fix that. You could see the talent of the freshman as they felt their way around in their first UConn game. A couple of hiccups in execution which has to be expected but they are really good. The biggest difference going forward is opponents will be starting freshman who will have hiccups and UConn wont????
Stanford will be Monday nite at 9 on ESPN 2. No worries about how to load you computer because its on TV. LOL This will be a good test as Stanford is ranked number 6 in the polls. I expect UConn to win this one big. My only regret is UConn doesn't have many early season home games. We have to wait for Monday against Creighton and then UConn is off to Florida. We are spoiled fans.
