Geno Auriemma was asked about the possibility of starting Ketia Swanier instead of Renee Montgomery considering Swanier has been, in the coach's words, the team's best player.

To that Auriemma said, "That would mean I'd have to sit somebody that's starting now. I don't think I'm comfortable doing that. I don't think anyone who's starting now would be justified to move them. I don't like changing roles that have taken all this time to kind of be somewhat solidified."
