Quote from: Crusader03 on November 18, 2011, 08:14:02 AMI, too, am optimistic about the team this year, I just think it's far too early to say they're going to be a much improved squad this season. I've seen a lot of good, possitive aspects of their game so far, but it's hard to hang your hat on anything until we get the majority of these ladies healthy and playing. I thought our defense played extremely well in the second half against Rice yesterday but we're still turning the ball over a lot. I'd have to say the talent is there to be able to compete with anyone in the conference. Putting the right players on the floor at the right time will be the challenge. We'll see how well the coaching staff can do this once we have the majority of our players healthy, and ready to compete. I still feel we won't have a true picture of where we're at until after the holidays.Quote from: jack on November 18, 2011, 06:29:51 AM
Like others, I fail to see the purpose of this thread, if only to stir the pot. It's far too soon to state we are a much improved team. We don't even have a "W" yet. Personally, I don't think we'll have a clear indication of where we're at until after the holidays. Having said that, I do see a lot of promise with this squad, and do feel we have a better chemistry then we seen the past few years. As long as we improve, week to week, that's all we can expect, or ask for.
Jack, have you had a chance to watch the team? I know you have been a Keith-supporter in the past, so I'm surprised you are not more excited about him and the team. As PGMADO mentioned, the Lady 'Saders have been riddled with injuries. Add what you've seen to a healthy/eligible squad and we are looking EXTREMELY solid.
Hey, I'm an optimist...what can I say?
