Message: [QUOTE="Alydar, post: 3659928, member: 730"] My favorite quotes: Nice article. Having watched her with Cosgriff I'd say he did a more than a little to make her better. He gave Bueckers a lot of talent and a system that had led to championships over many years and then he just let her run things. Of course his practices were intense and led to a pretty efficient offense with lots of scoring options. A bit overstated but he would tell her what to run and she just took over and got everyone positioned. And she made sure everyone got their shots. She is a freshman but I am convinced that she will quickly become UConn's leader on the court mostly because other than Westbrook, who I don't know much about, the rest of the team isn't really interested in being the leader. And I don't mean that as a criticism. Bueckers had a natural talent for inspiring her HS team which was almost entirely freshmen and sophomores. She is perfect, a pg, a big mouth, fearless on the court, liked by her team mates and most of all she is comfortable doing it. I'll speculate that Geno knows this and gave the books to the others so that it will be up to them to lead or else Bueckers will. And as for my third quote I seem to remember Geno saying that Bird had to have the last say. [/QUOTE]
