Paige definitely plays the game like a pro, her anticipated skills on the defense were amazing the way she would jump the passing lanes it kind of reminded me of Angel McCoughtry. Paige arms looked really long, you can tell she’s a true student of the game.

her game is a thing of beauty, and so it begins. awesomesauce.

We got aige and you don't.

We got aige and you don't.

He's not about to come out with it in the beginning of her freshman year, but it is lurking in there behind the mask and sooner or later it will come out!

"He's not going to come out with it," huh? After the game Geno dubbed Paige "great." No higher praise than that. When was the last time you heard Coach call a freshman "great" in the first game of her career?

"Great" is not the same as the magic phrase signifying "the stick that stirs the drink" in all of WCBB. I'll give you "Great" is a pretty good thing though.

Remember that Geno spent a lot of time in Minnesota over 3 years or so. I think it was time well spent.

She certainly makes it look like it is easy when it ain't.

Geno is trying hard to find something that he can say negative so that she does not get a "big" head.

Thanks. I guess that puts Paige in some pretty good company.

Besides Maya, there was anothter freshman:
"Breanna Stewart's UConn debut went about as well as she could have hoped. The 6-foot-4 freshman scored 21 points, grabbed five rebounds and had four steals Sunday as No. 2 Connecticut routed the College of Charleston 103-39"

So that puts her in pretty good company. But even they experienced some growing pains freshman year, so let's not get too down if Paige has some struggles later in the season. She has shown she is in the same class as some of UConn's greatest players.
