Message: [QUOTE="BlueSkyGLW, post: 5197765, member: 11281"] Coach Geno is finally seeing daylight in an important game re: what he has been seeing in this team emerging a little bit at a time: that it is equipped to make a run for the national championship #12. Still some little rough edges but they are now showing connectedness along with full game effort, and in raising their confidence, everyone's performance level is elevating. Many things to mention but lots of you have touched on them while in a state of euphoria, so no point repeating. But the fact that it reminded you of the good old days in flow, execution and effort means the first threshold has been passed: to have a game where you play this way for 40 minutes. Now, the next step is repeat and improve.....all the ingredients are there with their evident quality: from playing big to playing small. It is good to see quality depth not seen since Stewie's last year. And, BTW, this was done against a team that some people here have claimed to be physically dominant compared to the fragile UConn. That physically dominant team was outrebounded by 19 - one measure of physical dominance, reversed. I did see this coming, though not necessarily against South Carolina, especially this jaw-droppingly good. I trust they will continue to grow.....and the big girl, too, showed progress here. Looking forward to seeing the big girl as her comfort level continues to rise! Continue to work hard, play well in the way your coaches want you to, stay healthy and prevail - your team is good enough to get $12 done, so surely you will [B]deserve[/B] that win for the investment in effort and mental strength you shall have committed into this season and did in seasons past, especially you, Paige and Azzi in getting past your injury woes.
