Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 3813288, member: 3535"] I think many players show a progression from F/T shooting to hitting outside shots. Additionally, I think she finishes beautifully around the basket. IMO of which I'm near certain - if she were ever to get beaten out that she is relegated to mop-up minutes - it would mean UCONN is in our discussions comparing that team to our other all-time great teams. It would mean that the UCONN offense is "THAT" unstoppable that you can't use a big-time defender. :) -------------- **But in regards to Saylor-- I've read your posts - I'm in the skeptical camp of her having any sort of impact this year-- though nearly all games leading up to NCAA with exceptions of SC and a rare game will be blowouts. I am skeptical that she is a "sharp-shooter" in year 1. Actually year half-of-one. I think she is a good shooter but -- "sharp-shooter?" I doubt it in year half-of-one in which she missed a year previously. . If she was a sharp-shooter anyhow from everything I see - she'd be top 5 imo. Anna and CWill were regarded as good shooters or even better - along with Evina who is pretty good- and now we consider them "worst Geno has ever had" as Geno puts it. :) Now These other college players are no longer someone UCONN can rely on but a H/S player who has been out of hoop for a long time is going to step in and be a super shooter for an elite WCBB program? And I'll just reiterate again I did not read she was sharpshooter. She was very good but not a sharpshooter. Maybe what I read is wrong. We'll see. If my skepticism proves unfounded then she may play right away in some big games but I think as me and few others have said – imo we're getting a bit ahead of ourselves in our expectation for her. But hey if she is awesome then do it!!!! :) [/QUOTE]
