Justine couldn't get you a front-row seat, or press table, for the game with her alma mater??

At every program (and in every sport) one scholarship player resides at the end of the bench. It's a fact; granted, playing time is different based on depth and the competition.
Living in Texas, I did keep up some with Lexi's recruitment. I was surprised she was offered by UConn. More surprised that she stayed committed and signed despite the additional verbal commitments to UConn at her position by more highly-ranked players.
While players certainly have the chance to improve and move up the depth chart, there are plenty of players who remain buried on the depth chart, but remain part of the team all four years. Conversely, some players see the writing on the wall and make the tough decision to move elsewhere.

I guess I am a little late to the party. I have skimmed some of the post here... mainly because of how disgusted I was that people are attacking this young woman. UCONN is five games in. Four of the first five games have been against the top 25, and Michigan State is on the cusp of being a top 25 team.
People want to know why a freshman is not playing more minutes when UCONN started the season how most teams end their season... with top notch competition. Why isn't Lexie playing more minutes??? Because we are not playing cupcake teams. Because she is not Megan Walker who is extremely impressive.
Why has this conversation gone on for four pages? Seriously?

We are all wondering/curious because we are fans and that’s what we do. Whatever the reason may or may not be for her limited time on the court so far I’m sure we are all rooting for her and hopes she eventually makes the transition needed to be a valuable contributor for the team in the future.
