Message: [QUOTE="itsasport, post: 4012882, member: 306"] Ono will start but, last year, she sat a lot of minutes due to fouls. Dorka will get plenty of playing time. Aubry last year put in some very impactful short-minute stretches in terms of defense and under the basket rebounding and scoring. and also on fast breaks. I think the same will happened this year, Concerning playing time, I do not think that is the primary concern for the players. If it was, they would not have all some here or would have transferred. If they wanted to play 40 minutes they could have gone to Notre Dame, etc. College ball is not the culmination of their career. It is the training ground. As Dorka said, she is here to become the best basketball player that she can be- for her professional career. Playing time is the grade they get for their hard work and performance in class (practice) UConn has the best teaching staff in the country, most of their fellow students will be stars in the WNBA, a good number will be Olympians. They will have multiple NCAA appearances and championships. And they will enjoy lifetime membership in a unique basketball sorority. Finally, they will be able to say that they were coached by Geno Auriemma and Chris Dailey [/QUOTE]
