Message: [QUOTE="Tonyc, post: 3073853, member: 73"] Just in time for the post season. Early in the season there were alot of questions....and that is almost like every season. Fans talked about "IF" and "When" the freshman come around. Well the freshman have come around. They are not at their potential but they are tournament ready. Now I expect some feedback on that and I hope its not too negative. ONO presence helps keep opponents from going inside. CW MW and MC are playing terrific Defense. Defense wins championships..where have we heard that. This team has come along way from the beginning of the season and a very long way from a couple of weeks ago. An ole golf pro once told me when he was tweaking my swing. When you are breaking bad habits and making changes to your game your gonna get worse before you get better. Well look where we are now. A legitimate contender for the NC. While other teams seem to be struggling UConn is at a new level. We have improved so much and it is more glaring now over the past couple of weeks. One concern has been our lack of height. Well ONO in the middle and Phessa and Lou on the wings has changed that. Another concern was our defense. Well MC has helped change that and it seems to be contagious. The first 2 games of the NCAAs will be in Storrs. Should be a great tuneup after over a week of not playing a game. Rest and practice, teaching and drilling on the fundamentals and they playing at home. Then to Albany and most likely we will see LVille who is suffering from injuries or maybe Stanford. Tara is a great coach but facing UConn right now is a tuff task because UConn now is playing defense and many teams we will face do not play good defense. So the ride continues to the FF. UConn is in position to do something special once again. We can Dream Big again. Our expectations are Big again and UConn well theyre UConn again.. We have arrived just in time..... [/QUOTE]
