Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 2989563, member: 5823"] There is a lot of selective amnesia going on here specific to your hyperbole about being up by 40 points before bench players are given an opportunity to play in meaningful games so let me just refresh a few memories: 3 Season ago UCONN opened the season at Florida State. In a game that was nip and tuck and came down to the last shot there was Freshmen Molly Bent coming into the game in the second quarter with UCONN actually trailing 19-18. Wait, there was Molly Bent coming in the game in the third period with UCONN only up by 2 points. If you need a more recent example then think of UCONN's game @ND. Olivia was substituted into that game when UCONN had a 5 Point lead in the 2 quarter. She would play for 7 consecutive minutes until the end of the quarter when the UCONN lead had shrunk to 3. She logged an additional 7 minutes of the decisive 4th quarter. Mikayla Coombs was the first UCONN sub in the game a Baylor. She entered the game with UCONN trailing by 3 points and was given the assignment to cool down Landrum who was on fire. These players earned opportunities in practice. That "line of thinking" is the foundation of this program and there is nothing wrong with it. [/QUOTE]
