6th is good. Less pressure. More incentive.

They deserve it! They have earned it! If they contiunue to play hard, the sky is the limit for them. I don't agree with some of these rankings!

The crackhead from Connecticut is so jealous of Pat and her program. You can't stand the fact that the lady vols are back and what you saw actually scared you. Uconn will not go 40 and 0, not this season. When Renee left that idea should have left to. That point spot in Uconn is ok but it is not enough to do what Renee did. As I have said before, Maya and Tina cannot do it alone. Tina is good and so is Maya, after that you have nothing but role players and those two guards will not run that offense like Renee did. You know Uconn is weaker this year and you are running scared because the lady vols are getting better and by the end of this season around tournament time everybody better lookout. We will enjoy the number six ranking as I am sure you will enjoy the number one spot for the time being. Stanford is also on the rise and they are much better this year, so those steriod queens up there in Uconn better prepare for the cardinal. You was so sure that Uconn would land Chiney Ogwumike but too bad she chose a better program and left you and that scandalous school and went to Stanford. I don't care what anybody says, Uconn is not the only big fish in the pond this year and they will be challenged and possibly beat by Stanford, Duke and here is hoping Texas skins Uconn alive!

A week or so ago one of the philosophers on this site tried to attribute an ugly rumor about gender related stuff to UCONN regarding the Tennessee Team. Of course there was no substance to it, just brain dead gossip. Now we see from another fan "in the know" in Tennessee saying, "Stanford is also on the rise and they are much better this year, so those steriod queens up there in Uconn better prepare for the cardinal."
Nice talk.

Probably best not to reply to his or her post.
CTOWNICON writes:
I said it and I mean every word! You're quivering in your husky bones because even you have to admit that the cardinal is to be feared this year. That's the thing with the Uconn trash, they don't know how to give credit when its due. Uconn isn't the only good program out there and if you don't like what is said here on lady vol's site then don't come here. That is another thing the Uconn trash don't know how to do is stay off this site. I understand it is irresistible but try harder to resist. And yes steroid queens is the phrase I used.

I said after Tina and Maya Uconn has nothing but role players. If Tiffany Hayes is on the wade list it is not because of her skills because she lacks many to even be considered in the same breath as some of the past recipients. I have seen Uconn play time and time again and when Renee left the dynamics of that team changed and they are weaker this season and I don't care who disagrees. I will say this, they are a good team and they will win their share of games but I don't see a perfect season for them. Tiffany Hayes on the wade list. How many favors the NCAA gonna do for Geno. That just goes to show you the politics of sports because in all fairness nobody on Uconn team should be on the wade list but Moore and Charles. Hayes is not talented enough and she has not earned it.
