The most troubling thing I've seen this year is the lack of motion and ball movement on a consistent basis on offense. Geno has said he's been unable to get the team to move on offense, and it's especially mystifying given he has hall of fame coacheS (ie. more than 1) on his staff, and a senior PG who should be better able to get the offense to run efficiently. Oh, and it's not like any of his other starters are freshmen.
I'll give Aubrey and Anna a bit of a pass since they are freshmen, although Anna seems to be the most astute on offense - surprising maturity for a freshman. But there's no excuse for Olivia, Megan and Christyn (and to a lesser degree, Kyla).
Add to that - we have no idea what Christyn is going to give us night in and night out on offense.
Having said all that, I think we all knew this was going to be a rebuilding year. Being a top 8 team is not a bad thing given what we lose at the end of the season, and the embarrassment of riches we get next season.
Still, this is the prediction thread for the Memphis game. I went thru the lack of motion on offense because it's one major reason (IMHO) that our offense does not run at a high level. So what will we see the next game? I don't think that magically the team will suddenly start clicking on offense. This game should be a 30+ point blowout. i'm going to be a bit more conservative...
UCONN 78
