Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 2615214, member: 1131"] This is a very good article. What I found interesting is that SI was able to get Geno to comment on all four of the players that they discussed. From the detail in his comments, it's obvious that he has watched a lot of film and done a lot of thinking about how to deal with Brown, McCowan, and even Brown+Cox. He was careful in the article to confine his comments to what WON'T work ("If the game gets to be a slugfest, we're not going to win that"), and not tip his hand as to what UConn WILL do against Baylor or Mississippi State. About Azura, he said that she needs to block or at least alter more shots, and develop more of the defensive mentality that Stewie had. He said Azura has the length but not the bulk of the other players being discussed; hence the "slugfest" comment. As a fan, I derive comfort from the fact that Geno's brain has obviously been at work on how to play against Brown, Cox, and McCowan. [/QUOTE]
