Message: [QUOTE="JustinesGuy, post: 2520362, member: 7901"] Personally I think expectations can be too high. Clearly uconn has a very high standard and camp Geno can be grueling but is it too grueling? I feel like there's this expectation that every game has to start out 30-9 and we need to win by 40. Let me ask what the hell does that prove? Is that a positive if it comes at the cost of not playing our bench. How is the bench going to get confidence if they cannot get into the games WITH the starters. You know our starting SIX should not play the entire game save the last 4 minutes of garbage time!!! The starters should play the first few minutes of each half then possibly at games end if it's close( which it rarely is). Out side of those times Geno needs to mix in Irwin, BC, LG, MC with the starters throughout the game. Last game with KLS KN and CD all banged up and for him not to get them relief till four minutes left in game is really ridiculous. You mean to tell me the underclassmen are that awful?? Do they not know the plays? If they get out there and stop looking over there shoulder that they will be yanked if they make a bad play or miss a read, they and the team will be much better for it!!! So that circles back, are expectations too high? If we're up 20-30 and we can only trust walker that's a huge problem. Just my two cents [/QUOTE]
