Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3396891, member: 5798"] As much as I (we) hate to admit it, this UConn team doesn’t appear to be as talented and resilient as some of the recent teams. As previously noted, the swing and miss the program suffered on many of its most coveted recruits the last two years, and the defection of other players that transferred, along with Camara being unavailable has left the program short. Nine players can get the job done if all nine are experienced veterans that can/will produce and be effective consistently. One game does not condemn a team, but as in the Baylor game, it will expose any and all weaknesses and deficiencies you have. UConn was exposed, and it hurt. Some posters were tepid in their criticism of the team’s (players) performance, while others aggressively went for the jugular, and pulled no punches. How they fare against the remaining OOC opponents will answer any questions about how far this team can go in March. If they right the ship and win the remaining 3 games, I’ll be a lot more optimistic about their chances going forward. If they lose two, they may not advance beyond the second weekend. There’s an old adage: When people (teams) show you who they are, believe them. [/QUOTE]
