Temple Game Pressers

[JavaMan]

UConn is first and Temple starts at 18:39.

Mia Davis: "then like coach said #44 came in..." So she knows Aubrey's name but refuses to say it? I honestly don't get why people do that.

 

[Sargassoc]

I love Tonya.

 

[Wbbfan1]

I"d like to see Temple on the Schedule every couple of years. It would be good for Tonya's program.

We need every OOC game to be strong since the NBE is not going to wow anybody.

Unfortunately with the new league, instead of 16 garbage games every year, now it's going to be 20, and Geno is going to have to be really judicious about the out of conference schedule. After accounting for homecomings, there isn't going to be room for too many throw away games. I guess Geno can dedicate one of the ten OOC games every year to a friends of Geno match up and have teams like Temple, USF, etc. play in that game.

It’s a basketball thing. When I played ball, and we started talking trash, you would always call out someone’s number like, “Hey 44! No way you put up a double-double in the first half.”

It would be gr8 if Mir got #43 or #45...

But Tonya used our Players name which is the important thing. It is best for players to be "desensitized" to their opponents.

UConn coaches and players don't do this. They show their opponents the proper respect.

 

[EasyEd]

It's great that Tonya is still a UConn fan. She doesn't want UConn to lose, except to her Temple team.

Anna:

Big ice pack on Aubrey’s left knee. (Not nearly as big as the ice packs on ALL starting pitchers’ shoulders after EVERY game, but lotsa wear & tear coming next couple days with no 4 days off between starts...)

Wow what happened to her knee? I hope it's not serious! We need Aubrey.

Interesting that Geno rationalized...made excuses for the slow start.
It's not like this hasn't been an off and on issue all season.

Also, he spoke of the fact that it's a good shooting team;
yes against Temple, has not been demonstrated against the top-5

For me, that is the question (I would not be surprised if he ponders it as well)...

Is this pretty slick, hot shooting bunch, with pretty good D, the real UConn?
Or will they revert...

I'm hoping for a few more nasty upsets that get us to Fort Wayne
which would give us a gamblers chance of getting to a final 4
Mad Anthony would surely recommend staying away from Dawn's bunch, the way they played today.

Christyn:

CW just happy all the questions were about the freshman.

100% agree, and with the makeup of today's Big East, the trend to improve doesn't look good.

it is a theme going back a few years, not the other teams defense, missing open shots wide open lay ups, nerves, too pumped up. Maybe this year the freshmen will lead them.
