Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 2999434, member: 5798"] Nan, every poster needs to read and embrace your comment. I couldn’t agree more. This approach should be taken with Christyn and ONO. I’ve read comments chastising them for playing like freshmen, duh. Both of them will blossom in their own time. The incubation period cannot be rushed. Christyn has hit the freshman wall. This is just about the same time in the season that Stewie hit her’s. It’s a rite of passage. Something that most freshmen go through. Especially those that start. She’ll get through it. Christyn and ONO are going to help win a lot of BIG games for us (Notre Dame type games) before they graduate. We just have to wait and be patient and support them until then. The good thing is, we get to witness it when it happens, and it will happen. Notice how long it took Crystal to understand and “get” Geno’s system. Sometimes we forget what Geno says every year, that is that it takes most freshmen a full year to fully and completely understand and “get” his system. Every player has duties and responsibilities on both ends of the court. Recently when Geno has pulled Christyn out of a game, it’s because she’s not doing something she is expected to do. This fault can be on either end of the court. There is no substitute for experience. Christyn and ONO are gaining that experience with every game they play. [/QUOTE]
