Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 3079716, member: 2844"] Kind of a unneeded thread - IF IF IF - I understand that MrP says he didn't mean that a missed free throw cost the game but the idea that it was JAs free throw that started the downslide and was echoed on the chat is BS. The team was up against a far superior force in terms of talent, training, conditioning and yes - coaching UH ran UConn out of the gym - plain and simple I have seen this UConn team look tired (regardless of what the Fish says) in the late stages of the 1st half and 2nd half too many times this year. Besides an uptick in talent which I know that Dan Hurley and his staff are working diligently on, the team needs a better overall improvement in strength and conditioning - something I was under the impression was happening all last off season and advertised as such. Many claim that they are the way the are because of the past 3 seasons - yes there was an attitude of losing but that is something an effective coach should overcome and not just with "his players". The impression we got when they beat Syracuse is that the team was now under the Dan Hurley rapture and celebrated as such. I guess they forgot? If anyone would have shown the bad/loser attitude it would have been JA and CV - I didn't see any of that in those two at all - they were positive and buying into the Dan Hurley system It's a long road back to the JC days and not as easy as it was then either for so many reasons. Here's to 2019-2020. I am looking forward to better things and I really think they are on the horizon Thank you JA - sorry that you weren't given more to work with during your career, you'll be missed by me. [/QUOTE]
