Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 5108644, member: 3535"] To a degree imo they do care. Why wouldn't they? They want to be recognized. They're human and very competitive to get where they have gotten. I can recall Geno once saying how Paige would come up to him and tell him, "You owe me minutes," in her frosh year. Her soph yea when she came back so quickly she had a reply, "I'm different." These are ego things. I can't imagine how with all the time Paige puts in the work to achieve the success she has had that she is okay with settling that she is not the best. And looking at it from a UCONN perspective, that 11th player might not get on The Wall. While the degree they care matters more for team, but individually who wouldn't want to be recognized in that manner? They've achieved their individual success by being very competitive. If they didn't have this competitive fire to be at a certain level then they probably wouldn't get recruited by schools such as UCONN an SoCar etc. I can't imagine Geno and Paige not accepting that Paige shouldn't be "the best."
