I've noticed a lot less armchair coaching since I've made fore frequent use of the "ignore" feature - LOL Definitely a sanity saver.

Whoa, sometimes the old methods are the best.

I have a theory. I think Geno was aware of the buzz about his short bench coming from reporters and fans. He played the reserves all at once to put an end to all of the arm chair coaching.

I dislike how Geno handled this "bench situation". What did Geno expect the product on the court to look like by putting four bench players in at the same time??!?! How is it going to look different than a blowout game in the 4th quarter.

Let me give some free advise. Mix in some bench players with the starters. Never have all five starters out there together dave the first 3-4 minutes of each quarter.

Another point- the crowd was completely dead!! Come on storrs!! Give the bench some love.
 
Geno is so RIGHT about that "My bad" comment. That is the excuse for everything for everyone...and not just in basketball.
 
This was not a good move by Geno tonight. The starters have the same attitude on the floor that he does on the bench tonight. No sense of urgency or insistence they play UConn style of basketball.

Who is Geno playing too tonight? Is he trying to prove a point to the fans and the media why the reserves aren't getting enough minutes. Play the reserves that have the most individual skills to play against Elite Competition. IMO that's Megan and Mikayla.

KLS landed on her left foot funny and her ankle has been bothering her, she's done for the night

gee.........I'm not sure the starters are playing all that much better then the subs............this team looks distracted, disinterested whatever...........I would give Tulsa some credit they are playing well at both ends
 
Here I am watching this ugly UConn game that looks like Geno is trying to lose. On ESPN Notre Dame has taken the lead against the Lady Vols and I have missed all of Notre Dame's comeback.
 
Kia, KLS, and Crystal are the only ones on this team who should be shooting anything from outside 12 feet.
 
I made it home just on time for 4th quarter. To all who criticized the bench for their play in the second, it doesn't appear that the starters did much better on the third. I wouldn't judge the bench by one game.

Sorry Meghan, Molly was a liability the complete time she was on the court. Why is Tulsa hitting the three point shots they have made? They've been wide open, many were Molly's responsibility.
