Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 3095927, member: 199"] I certainly agree about the 'trust' issue with Geno, but the first foul trouble started fairly early in the first half with Williams and at that point Uconn had a sizeable lead. He went with Ono, and I thought she played pretty poorly when she first entered, giving up O boards, playing defense outside while leaving the inside wide open and fumbling rebounds. At either the middle of the first Q or middle of the second Q as Uconn began bleeding scoring margin, Coombs could have been given a few minutes to see how well or poorly she did. Truthfully she couldn't have done much worse than the five on the floor. I do agree that by the mid fourth, he was riding his horses and should have, but that was because he refused to try anything during the first half. He seemed to trust her quite a bit when Lou was out during the AAC tournament. What changed? I also thought he called off the press when Buffalo finally slowed their heart rate and began to run good offense - they were breaking the pressure and getting really good shots and making them by the time he pulled the defense back.
