Just looking at the height of this team and wow our smallest player is 5’10. I would love to see us post up our guards often.
I seem to remember one BE game early in the season where Paige posted and easily scored but never went back to the play (which I assumed was called from the sidelines). Later Geno was interviewed (or at least I seem to recall) and he was annoyed Paige did not go after that play again and again quipping that I guess Paige thought it was too easy (and maybe disrespectful to the smaller guard)

Maybe I am hallucinating this? :confused:

I remember this as well. I believe it was against Seton Hall.

Wow! I guess you can teach height! One summer at UConn and Dorka is already an inch taller from when she was at Ohio State. ;)

I'm excited to see her progression and improvement in the UConn system. It's going to be a fun season regardless of the record, may be a few adjustment games in the beginning.

After Dorka arrived on campus:

“She’s bigger than I thought,” Auriemma said. “She’s all of 6-5."

Yees! I'd really like to watch her post up against smaller guards when given the chance. Her fade from the post looks so smooth especially if she does it one-legged Dirk style. I saw a training vid of hers where she did this but never really got to see it too often in-game, even during her high school games.

Just noticed some pictures are not up. Mainly Morgan Valley and a few other staff. That is surprising to me
Well they have only had a couple of days since Morgan was hired so... LOL :rolleyes: :eek:

Did anyone notice that Dorka's high school was listed as "Ohio State"? Is UConn casting some aspersions on the academic level of the Big Ten?

I noticed it, but if you look on the main page its "previous school" and not highschool as they label it on the player's individual page.

I've noticed that is a pretty standard practice on many team roster pages. Maybe it's the formatting? Or you might see both the high school and the former college/university.
For instance, Notre Dame lists Maya Dodson as St. Francis/Stanford. (Maya has some fine academic pedigree ;) )

Anybody know when they usually post the new media guide on the website? I'm looking forward to getting a look at that.
