It is quite obvious that the aforementioned do not know the offense, being "book smart" also has very little bearing on understanding the inner workings of a motion offense. It is more about feel and reading defenses than learning absolute rules.
Doubtful. Looks like the private schools want their tuition and their players playing bball for them.
Yeah she's like the Hanby of this team.
How is it quite obvious! You have not seen enough from Autumn or Piath to even say they don't know the offense.
From what I have seen of Autumn is she is quite comfortable in UConn's defense and offense. But whether those limited minutes are enough to make a definitive judgement (?). As far as Piath she needs awareness (too many passes pass her by). And she needs work on skills and footwork.
If I didn’t know better I swear that Alexa either reads and or post on the BY. Wait a second do I “really” know better?A largely repetitive article from the Courant just went up.
How was Saylor Poffenbarger allowed to join the UConn women early, and what does her addition mean for the Huskies? Here’s more on UConn’s latest freshman.
Much to the surprise of Husky fans, the UConn women’s basketball team announced Friday that it is bringing aboard a new addition mid-season: Saylor Poffenbarger, a class of 2021 recruit who had signed with UConn in November, has finished high school early and decided to join the team upon the...www.courant.com
Poffenbarger underwent left hip surgery in April, but Laflin said she looked healthy when he recently saw her play in a local fall league.
“Saylor’s a coach’s kid. She’s a smart player. She has the right view. She’s not going to come in and make it about her. She’s not going to have to face any of the maturity hurdles, I wouldn’t think,” Laflin said. “I would imagine Saylor has realistic expectations, and that’s the advice that I would give any of them is to say, ‘You’ve got to have a realistic expectation, to treat this as an experience that as you grow and gain, if you get to play and produce or even be in a consistent rotation, that’s a little bit of a bonus. But you can’t go in judging it like you just judged your high school game that you played in two weeks ago.’
Thats a whole lot of holes..
I don't ever remember reading anything she's written that I hadn't already learned on the BY or somewhere else. I don't bother anymore.If I didn’t know better I swear that Alexa either reads and or post on the BY. Wait a second do I “really” know better?
I guess to each their own
Who's family? Paige's?
No, I was referencing Saylor’s family. There was some confusion about which player was being referenced.
I actually preferred a silent-running ship and GPS input to a ring-laser gyro-navigator to steer her by, clear deep water, with the sky being optional until at periscope depth....
My idea of a serious run to the national championship is having THREE Huskies competing for the national sixth "man" of the Year award, and five of five starters in the final ten for each national position awards.
We love $hi___ Creek, and may the Huskies never be there without a paddle....If I didn’t know better I swear that Alexa either reads and or post on the BY. Wait a second do I “really” know better?
I am sure her High School coach provided ample great advice (because it is her mom & it did not blindside her either), and may Saylor have a tremendously successful 4.5 years of College eligibility, and the team be protected from the pandemic!!!Typical BoneYard thread, title says one thing but the posters latch on to a completely AND irrelevant dialogue...
Back to Saylor-she has chosen an opportunity to accelerate her collegiate choice a semester early as there were either limited or no opportunities to play in HS this year. She offers some unique skills for this team-position versatility, outside shooting and ball handling. I am dubious on even 10 min per game simply because we have 9 deep already so 7-10 average for me would be outstanding. If she can even average 2-3 3-point shots a game that would be good. She will have growing pains as all the freshman usually do (Paige is becoming an exception). There is nothing but upside here. Geno and Staff had to approve this and think it was a good idea, why anyone here is so concerned about other players minutes, obviously is not in tune with the competitive UConn spirit. Play the cards you are dealt and let the chips fall where they may. Happy to have you Saylor!
Only one thing to add to a fast ship..... a full "quiver" of precision weapons, because harm's way tends to appear in the "twinkling of an eye."
The difference in your photos is that the pup is cute, and the mature Husky is beautiful....
You are correct.
Are you saying Sayor has a boatload of talent?
Nicely played! ...and "100 PERCENT!" as Pastor Ron from Plantville, CT would say at full volume....
They been the favorites to me and probably others that’s not even a Uconn fan
