Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 4956498, member: 3535"] I disagree with most of the context of your post. In regard to [B]-CW, Liv, Amari, to date, Ice and Yanna-- [/B]Liv and Yanna did not have soft touches away from the basket. Though some mentioned it- but these were wrong evaluations. And Amari was not a top 10 player so putting her in the discussion with the number 1 player is not the best example to cite. Yes maybe CW did. And yes they underperformed to their ranking - but for example CW and Liv got to the Finals - and a Final Four another year. You're being kind of harsh especially with Liv-- she is a pro player that got to 3 Final Fours, one was a Finals. And you mention about UCONN injuries in para 2 but then you take a bit of a snipe for not winning the championship. But if the injuries are [B]significant[/B] as you state, then why would you expect or take a shot at UCONN for not winning it all? Which leads further to goals. If you are going mention goals then you can't just disregard the other goals that have been met which this program does state - and they are win the Big East, Win the B.E Tourney, win the Regional FF. You did say "Ulitmte Goal" but you made it seem like the other goals don't matter. Does it seem like to any of us that the team doesn't celebrate the other goals? Ofc they do. Because they have meaning to the UCONN team including Geno. So, if they have [B]significant[/B] injuries and they are meeting all their goals instead of the last one, it seems odd that UCONN should take a hit for this. As a result, your final statement imo glosses over the goals. which is why I disagree with the context of your post. For anyone not understanding that their other goals that have been achieved along with there being significant injuries these past three years- [B]ofc "we can blame them (the posters or fans)" if they become accusatory.[/B] And in regard to this thread the 5 players you mentioned above- 4 of the 5 were not #1 recruits yet you lumped them in with Sarah., Why not appreciate what UCONN has done? Why not appreciate that a number 1 recruit is coming? The potential that Sarah can bring is exciting. It is very possible she can bring to the table great shooting, passing and rebounding. I suppose you do appreciate – but at least the context of this post it just seemed all so negative on a thread in which we got the #1 recruit. [/QUOTE]
