    Realistically, how far can this UCONN team go

    Only three of the fourteen on the roster are seniors.
    How far can this overachieving basketball team go with 11 underclassmen?

    Walker is an all world guard, freshman Napier is playing like a polished junior, Oriakhi is more than getting it done in the pivot, Lamb proved last night he can shoot lights out.

    I think this team can go deep in the tourney, sweet 16 deep.

    Reminds me of the fab five from Michigan back in the day.

    Just like when Melo won the whole thing with 'Cuse!! Walker may be able to do the same thing!

    This team can go to the Elite 8, or have a bad shooting night and go down in the 2nd rd. I think the guard play is too good to lose in 1st rd game if they keep playing at this level and receive a 2-3 seed.

    anytime you've got the best player on the floor... in every game, you've got a damn good shot. They've gone to some tough places and won - and not by last second junk or anything either.

    As a Conn native, I hope they can join the Women's team in the Final Four, and I wouldn't be surprised if they did.

    Guard play can carry a team deep into the tournament, and I wouldn't be surprised to see an elite 8 or even a final four run from this team.
