Question..Is Kelly Faris..

[Adesmar123]

the anti Skylar Diggins ?

no hate messages allowed in responses....but in the world of anti matter...? My physicists friends would say no, they co existed on the basketball floor.

no Twitter account...not seeking notoriety...not cultivating a following...

hmmm

She certainly is when it comes to facial expressions.

(I mean that in a non-hateful way, of course.)

Their differences may be primarily superficial...both would like to hammer you into submission...

In many ways Kelly is the anti-SD........Kelly doesn't score as much ; Kelly doesn't flop ; Kelly doesn't complain everytime a call doesn't go her way ; Kelly keeps the same facial expressions throughout the game ; Kelly doesn't change hair scarves if she's having a bad half ; Kelly plays for a school that wins NC's. And Kelly is going to win a NC this year , and SD will not........... So yeah , I would say Kelly is the anti-SD.

And she's probably proud of it.............I know I am.

Geno would have loved to have Skylar Diggins on his team. He actively recruited her. And so would have I. We'd have two more NCs had she come to Storrs.

How about we save the trash talking until we actually show up against ND more than once in six meetings? Like, if we ruin Skylar's senior night and then win the BET, I'm good with it. Until then, it just seems petty.

I respectfully disagree. He would have loved her talent but not all of the fluff that comes along with it. And it didn't start in college. I am not a big fan of flashy and have disliked her for that for several years while recognizing her talents as a player. I do not think the Skylar e periment at UConn would not have ended so well...but that is all conjecture at this point.

I don't believe so. I have been a strong kelly Faris fan for 3 years now and she has the kind of work ethic it takes to be successful at something. But so does Diggins. They are in tremendous shape both mentally and physically. They both have the strong desire to win and will do anything to achieve that. Diggins gets more attention and thrives on it, I believe Kelly thrives on playing great and not so much on the attention. They are both great players with different roles in their team's success. Skylar did a great job when it counted to beat UCONN and some are still sore. Excellence should be respected no matter what colors she wears. And anyone who thinks Geno wouldn't want Skylar on his team is dillusional. Faris is Superwoman in disguise.

You don't think they showed up in the two OT games?

UCOnn battled them tough in 5 of the 6 games. To say they didn't show up just to defend ND is unfair.
