Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4158487, member: 9844"] Largely agree and your highlighted quote is probably Geno's true feelings. The senior class has been a big disappointment. I think they are trying, but it is what it is. Christyn is a shooting guard that is not a very good shooter, a decent defender, pretty good cutting to the basket but the rest of her game is ordinary. There is no greatness there, no All-America teams, not going to be on the wall, and a marginal WNBA prospect. Evina is pretty good at a variety of things, is very versatile, but probably doesn't have a single skill that is above average by at least WNBA standards, but like Christyn is a shooter that opposing teams do not fear. Her versatility might land her an end of the bench job in the W, but like CW and Liv all three have wound up being mediocre by Uconn starter standards and well short of expectations. With Liv it is all about the body type. Of course she is a good shot blocker and decent passer but she was never going to be much more than that against other good bigs unless she could start throwing around weight she never added. I think she can play in Europe but has very little chance in the W. Can't bang with WNBA bigs and doesn't have perimeter skills to be a stretch four. In fairness, some HS classes just are not that good at the top, but somebody has to be ranked near the top, and Christyn and Evina's class seem to fit that category but having said that some lower ranked players have exceeded them.
