Message: [QUOTE="Cuango, post: 5340920, member: 3834"] This is classic Geno. I’m betting he’s absolutely giddy over this roster. I think first of all, he’s bent on giving Paige her flowers, I think he’s likely deliberately underplaying Caroline in order to keep expectations low, and he’s pushing Ice and Jana to keep the pressure on them. He is [B]the[/B] master at this kind of verbal messaging. I’d bet a lot of money that every single thing he said there was carefully calculated to send a particular message to both individuals and the team as a whole. He is just sooo smart about what his players need and how to motivate them to fulfill their potential. He [B]does[/B] have a lot of work ahead of him as he begins to mold this incredible collection of talent into the dominant powerhouse most people are expecting, but I’m thinking underneath that grumpy pessimism, he’s rubbing his hands together in anticipation.
