Message: [QUOTE="Tonyc, post: 2382224, member: 73"] I keep reading all these posts about hope we get this one or that one. IMO some kids dont understand what it takes to win. Some dont understand they need to change to be successful at the next level. When you on a team the team can not do it on your talent alone, you will need help and should be surrounded by coacharble talented teammates. If you keep on doing what your doing your gonna keep on getting what your getting. There is always a next level . Your goals should be to get to that next level. Geno presents the opportunity to help you reach the next level, but you must be coachable. NC's are expected at UConn. There are many shooting stars that come and go. There are many couldve beens that couldve been great but werent ready to change and missed their opportunity. Understand... to be successful at anything in life you have to pay a huge price, pay it in advance and there are no guarantees. You have to give up the way it is and be dedicated to change to become the best you can be. In order to do that ... You have to have the right attitude and you must be coachable. You have to have a leader who is proven, that can get you there. You will never get better at anything in life unless you are willing to change where you are in your life, make a total commitment, trust your mentor, and never ever give up. You have to commit to doing what ever it takes. Nothing comes easy. It takes work. Work is practicing what youve learned until you cant get it wrong. In the end its all about having the right attitude. So when a great high school player goes elsewhere because elsewhere makes them happy wish them good luck and in April smile because UConn will be in the Final4. [/QUOTE]
