Message: [QUOTE="TCC Kid, post: 4302048, member: 11583"] I like your Pro-Uconn Women approach but I believe the truth is --this was Uconn's --A bridge too Far! The Gamecocks, love or hate em, were a well coached, well staffed team with many many healthy, uninjured, un sick players with talent. They were/are an extremely good team. Boston is only one part of their puzzle albeit a major factor in their win. But SC had 10 other players that all contributed. Paige, the heart and soul of this team visibly limped during the game. Her lateral movements were not that of Paige of 2021. Fudd, sick beyond sick and a no factor. As much as I dis like this--credit goes to SC for properly defining each Uconn players movement, where and how she will pass,their idiosyncrasies were well diagnosed. On another day, with a healthier team it is still a MAYBE for UConn winning. No, No, NO! Uconn did NOT "run out of Gas". A team hobbled by injuries and sicknesses was beaten by a deeper, stronger team. This UC team deserves praise, not excuses, it deserves to see the situation as it really was. [USER=73]@Tonyc[/USER] has done that. He and We are really proud of what these kids and Geno accomplished. I have watched those games with DT, Sue, Swin, Asia, Marie, even Barbara turner--They were like the SC team--and I am not more proud of them than this team. [/QUOTE]
