This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Consider UConn's formula by Kayo
I can't remember UConn having a 10-deep roster. The team always has great players, but the rotation never seems to be more than seven deep... seven deep in outstanding players but not so deep that great players aren't getting enough minutes to be happy.
I'm willing to be corrected if this hasn't been the case most of the time, but that's how it seems when I've see UConn play.
There need to be some players on the roster who might not play heavy minutes until they are juniors and seniors... Madison Cable, Hannah Huffman, Ariel Braker. Some might become starters as their careers progress (Cable, Braker), and others might be regular rotation players off the bench (Huffman). Contributors. Important to the team's success. usually not stars.
Getting everybody might create problems that undermine team cohesiveness.
