Message: [QUOTE="eebmg, post: 3604001, member: 7548"] This piece seems most critical Williams and Nelson-Ododa seem poised to lead the team both on and off the court despite their relative youth, Auriemma said. “This will be their third year of playing a lot of basketball, and if you talk to both of them, they’ll tell you they’re really, really disappointed with the way things went, for them personally, this past year, which is the best thing for a kid to say,” Auriemma said of the junior pair. “They’re like, ‘Coach, I’m not happy. I took a step back. I know what I did that I’m not going to do, and I know what I should’ve done that I’m going to do. And they’re going to be great.” I understand the step back sentiment for Christyn but I do not really see that in Liv. Her evolution seems pretty steady and is poised to explode. All she needs to do is step up against the top teams. [/QUOTE]
