Being in Florida, I haven't had the opportunity to watch this team with the exception of nationally televised games. I did finally get on ESPN3 and watched Sunday's game against Saint Bonaventure. There is a couple of things that really stood out for me: one is that St. Bonaventure has a good solid team and plays sound fundamental basketball. The second is that we obliterated this "sound fundamental" team with such speed, crispness and athleticism that I was awed. It just seemed like I was watching a "how to" tape on playing championship caliber basketball by John Wooden or Adolph Rupp or one of the other great minds of basketball lore. I can only imagine Geno or Chris in a private moment saying to themselves, "how can we possibly get these guys (or gals) to play any better then they're playing at this moment"? Their defense was overwhelming, crushing any continuity that St. Bonaventure attempted to show and their unrelenting rebounding, ball hawking, etc. was over the moon impressive. I really can't foresee anyone beating these girls, in particular later when Morgan and KML return. Just so, so, so impressive!!!!!
