Let's face it- UCONN has been at their best when they have had multiple All_Americans. If there are no multiple A/A's, then someone is going to have to be a Diana Taurasi type of which is highly doubtful.  So my 1st preference is for 2-3 players (4 I think too much to ask but always hopeful) to emerge as big time huge National players.

If that doesn't work then my 2nd preference is one player is off-the-charts.

But if all are about the same without a superstar then just press utilizing a deep bench and trap whether it be halfcourt or full.

I prefer always as many superstars as you can get and play them and play them and play them. While some are concerned that we lost bench players over the years and it's hard to recruit quality bench, I'm much more concerned of not getting superstars. Superstars are the big reason why UCONN has 11 titles and so many consecutive Final Fours. The superstars don't care as much if everyone eats, they want to consume what's rightfully theirs. They eventually become legend and become near unstoppable. You don't sit that. You play it and play it and play it.
