This is a thread titled "Tiffany Hayes". That is why I am discussing Tiffany Hayes. If you would like to start a thread on any of the players feel free. Unfortunately, Tiffany is a senior and she still appears to have the same wild streak she has had for 3 years. That's probably why there are 5 pages on this thread, and not for the others.

nah I think its 5 pages long cause we're crazy enough to reply to your comments.

actually I have started threads on other... look around, (Kaleena, Kiah).

stay with me, remember we're talking about the game that was played on Nov 21, 2011 against the Stanford Cardinal womens basketball team
 
WOW there is alot of argueing going on. This thread is becoming a real mess. Perhaps what was said wasnt what was ment to be said. In any event perhaps we should look back to what was said and see if that was what was meant to be said. Everbody cant be wrong and everybody cant be right. I think we need an olive branch here and move on. Happy Thanksgiving to all and God Bless
 
i have zero issue with tiff driving to the hoop to attempt a shot. the thing i still find mystifying is that she seems incapable of making a right handed layup. as i said, she turns a drive from a degree of difficulty of a 3 to an 8 with the way she has to twist and contort her body in order to attempt the layup with her left hand but from the right side. i just got the pacific game and have been watching that and am amazed at how smoothly Bria and Stef use their off hands, and they are sophomores. i can't figure out why as a senior, Tiff has yet to learn to use her off hand for a point blank layup.

i loved the other things Tiff did. just like Faris when her shot's not falling. Tiff didn't pout or lag on defense. she just went out and grabbed boards, made steals and dished assists. i think that's the mark of a mature player.

i think some of the criticisms have come across as maybe a bit harsh, but on the flip side, when you recall Geno's comments (paraphrasing) that "when Tiff plays her best, she's the best player on the floor", and these comments came last year with Maya on the team, combined with the fact that she's a senior and a captain, i think expectations are higher.

maybe too high!

btw a lot of people cant do things with their off hand... Renee didnt use her left (according to some) til her Sr. year.

my problem with some of the comments is they "might" be coming from people that NEVER played basketball and seem to think things are soooooo easy.

(thinking of halftime when the guy needs to make a lay-up, free throw, 3pter and a 1/2 court shot.... and he throws the ball over the backboard while attempting the lay-up)
 
Uconn as a team came out a little, rushed, and a little over hyped. They were playing way to fast. Some of the team regained their poise on offense and some didnt. The defense and rebounding were terrific. Work on poise and playing undercontrol in big games and when the pressure is on and we will be fine.

It kinda funny how the preseason started with pollsters ranking us between 3-6 with anywhere from 2-8 losses. I beleive they underestimated UConns heart, determination and relentless drive. It all comes from disipline, and the way Geno trains them.

but Renee did learn finally to layup with her off hand. how is it that Bria and Stef as sophomores can do it but potential AA candidate Tiff cannot?

Stay with me. We're not talking about one game. We are talking about Hayes' basketball IQ.
