OT : Dr. Auriemma's observation

[Blueconn]

"...she has a real basketball IQ. In today's day and age, if you can 'I' you are way ahead of the game, never mind the 'Q' part." - Geno re Morgan Tuck.

Almost in league with the late Dr. Berra who observed that 90% of the game is half mental.

From my observations, Geno hit the nail on the head. He stated that she's the easiest person to coach. That means she gets it the first time. You may occasionally see her coaching from the bench during games. In games, you will see her leadership role taking over in huddles. Ask Muffett or Courtney Williams (USF), who's the difference maker on UConn? "She's a beast out there," USF's Williams said of Tuck. "I think she's the most consistent player on their team."

Always fun to watch player behavior and then play the "spot the future coach" game. Morgan makes the list.

Nykeesha's nick- name was "Prescious". For Morgan it might be "Trusty"; though the players might choose "Easy".
