Right now, my issue is recruiting, and getting ready for the season and making sure that we put ourselves in position to win a national championship. |
She felt like during the regular season there were times when she may have had opportunities to take over games and didn't. And now that her career's winding down, in this scenario she wanted the ball in her hands and she wasn't afraid to take big shots. |
She finally realized that the more I do for others, the better it is for me, and in the end she ends up being better than she's ever been. I think you grow as a person when you start doing things for other people. So college was good for Barbara. The University of Connecticut was good for Barbara. And Barbara was good for the University of Connecticut. |
She had an unbelievable night. |
She has too much ability to not play well. She just came out and just shot it and made plays. She found a way to be a real basketball player (Tuesday) as opposed to just somebody who plays point guard at Connecticut and runs up and down the floor. (Tuesday) she was a real basketball player. |
She is assembling a really great cast here. She is taking young players and playing them. Once they are older they will know how to play together. Pitt accomplished more (yesterday) then we did. |
She may be as difficult a player to match up and defend as anybody I've seen up to this point. |
She played like the All-American she is. |
She played way more than I wanted her to play. But she'll take [today] off and go Monday and then take Tuesday and Wednesday off, and we'll see. |
She played way more than I wanted her to play. I was hoping that we could limit her minutes. Ann will take (today) off and go Monday (against LSU) and then take Tuesday, Wednesday off and we'll see what happens next week. But we needed all those minutes (Saturday). |
She wasn't that thrilled to play. When I took her out, I had no intention of putting her back in. But all that went out the window in the second half. |
She?s sneaky and she caught those guys a couple times. She?s not easy to guard, and I thought those guys did a pretty good job of making her work hard for everything. |
She'll make plays that are just really key without being in the box score. She's one of those guys at the end of the game, you look and you say, 'What did Will do?' Well, if you weren't at the game and you didn't watch it, you don't know what Will did. And that's Will. And that's always been Will from Day 1 that she's stepped on the floor at Connecticut. She drives you crazy with what she could do and then she amazes you with what she actually does. |
She's careless and when you're careless all of a sudden it starts to chip away at your confidence because you start making just enough mistakes that are just careless mistakes. Some of it is just that you've got to be more attentive and your intensity level's got to be a lot higher. We need Renee to play at a real high level in order for this team to move forward. |
She's come a long way with this team. She's one of the great people in the game and I'm happy for her. |
