Message: [QUOTE="cferraro04, post: 4849279, member: 267"] For the original poster (Oldude)...Great post...great info...yes...it is a remarkable moment that we UConn fans should cherish...the stars have lined up rather ominously and have created the circumstances that we have. Think for a minute what if Caroline and Azzi hadn't gone to the injury list? Then KK and Ashlynn wouldn't have gotten the minutes they have. And, the chance to see three quality point guards on the floor at the same time would have been greatly diminished. We, as fans, have a lot to be grateful for...any other team who would have lost even two let alone five quality players would have been devastated, and their ability to whether the injuries and keep winning would be unlikely. UConn lost 5 star players and after a couple of hiccups...now look at them. They looked at themselves in the mirror. They did a checklist from head to toe. They made adjustments. it is as if they didn't miss a beat...Ahhhh, life is good! Let's look ahead to next year...what 4 or maybe even 5 guards could take the floor? 1. Azzi will be back, 2. Paige will be back, 3. Nika will be back, 4. KK Arnold will be a sophomore. 5. Ashlynn Shade will be a sophomore. 6. 5'10" point guard, #4 ESPN...Allie Ziebell. 7. 6'2" guard, #18 ESPN...Morgan Cheli. Yes, count them 7 quality point guards or off-guards. If this year is bad...wait til' next year. [/QUOTE]
