Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3681727, member: 5798"] Slide over my friend and allow me to join you on that branch. One of the best arguments I've read suggesting that Maya is the GOAT. She's my goat too, for all the reasons you mentioned. We're a very small minority (there are others), but that' ok. I can live with it. I like Diana, and recognize that she is the CONSENSUS goat of the UConn fan base, but not the unanimous choice. Until those of us that want to debate on who the real goat is, first we must agree on the criteria to be used in making those judgments. I doubt we'll be able to do that. That is why we cannot all agree. Some use stats/numbers, some go by the number of championships won, while others use individual awards and the eye test. Because she was a 4 time MVP of the final four, and won 4 rings, many think [B]Breanna Stewart[/B] is the goat. She was a great player, and is 2nd on the all-time scoring list right behind Maya. But was she better than Dee or Maya? [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connecticut_Huskies_women%27s_basketball']Connecticut[/URL] has the most all-time winners with nine. [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_Moore'][B]Maya [/B][/URL][B]is the only player to win the Wade Trophy three times[/B], accomplishing the feat in 2009 (only sophomore ever to win the award). That said, it's hard to argue against a 4 time NCAA champion regardless of what criteria you choose to use. The goat is whoever YOU think is the best player in UConn lore is, because you know your basketball, and know a great one when you see one. ;) Case closed. [/QUOTE]
