For him because of who he is, I agree. But you see all the time in big time sports guys who are much richer than Dan making their decisions strictly based on the money. We have a special coach.

Ehh oats would be a great hire, but there is no almost as much of a grand slam hire as Hurley. That’s why they are still talking about him, there’s a portion of their fan base that would be disappointed with anyone but Hurley. And as far as Kentucky getting more desperate and offering even...

Thanks. Actually just got back from the Manchester dicks and they had a lot. Plenty of the main shirts and hats. Hoodies, back to back long sleeve ts, and a few other things

It also doesn’t really matter. We sell out our games, we support nil, and we care about the program. That’s all a coach is going to care about. He’s not leaving a perfect situation in the midst of a dynasty to go from the 10th most passionate fan base to the 2nd (just throwing out arbitrary...

Where’s good to get championship merch in the Hartford area without having to wait on shipping? Dicks?

To each their own. Every episode of curb makes me laugh, and there’s still been some classics the last couple seasons. Very sad it’s ending

Maybe this belongs on the CR board and even then the points are arguably exaggerated, but as far as “mattering” it matters greatly for the most important thing, enjoying being a fan and having success. Wouldn’t dream of trading places with all the p4 schools who’s best success is going 8-4 and...

Amazing experience. Hard to compare the noise level to 2014 since it’s been 10 years. Nature of the games thought that was a super tense crowd the entire way probably until the Nolan dunk when we could go nuts celebrating. Lots of back and forth between the fan bases though obviously we drowned...

I believe one of the articles or tweets I saw said he did that too lol

Agreed. I was there, we brought it big time.

I’m hoping Brooklyn had so many duke and UConn fans living in the city that could make a last minute purchase it kept the price up. Boston would really only have UConn fans buying last minute. Just hoping that makes the difference though, I have no idea lol

Get in price on Seatgeek seems to be dropping slightly, still extremely expensive though. Think it drops more or is now the time to buy?

We played 2 games that were completely over by halftime. Both felt over by the first under 12 timeout. The last thing these games provided other teams is hope

Coaches talk about this stuff all the time to each other. Even with belichek one of the only things that could get him to open up in a press conference was a good X’s and O’s question by a media member who knew their stuff. It wasn’t about keeping their techniques secret. Plus nfl there’s no...

How so?

Yea I mentioned concession lines but added in at the end that all I truly care about is having the best atmosphere possible

The NCAA games have always used the madden engine with some tweaks to make it more like college. I think that just some of the stuff that seems unrealistic about madden that leads to tons of 49-42 games works for college since it is usually more wide open. That, and franchise mode and...

Ridiculous take

Yea wild. Got 2 when i got in before 6 my next trip at 6:30 they were gone. I was on student section side so thought maybe they ran out first but guess it was everywhere. This didn’t happen for providence last year so idk what the deal was

Good crowd. Easily the best of the year so far, not as loud as the loudest games last year, but with good reason those were close games

We really haven’t seen much of this team play with both castle and clingan available and playing their usual minutes. Defense will be scary when that happens. Really great win

Thought he played the best all around game on the team tonight and his play in the first 10 minutes or so of the 2nd half is what changed the game. Definitely didn’t look lost, he was really taking charge of the offense too directing guys around and getting the guys the ball in good spots

So it has nothing to do with the UConn-st john’s situation is what you’re saying

Portal works both ways, lack of playing time might make a guy more likely to leave but it also makes it easier to replace them. We saw it when people complained about diggins, akok, and Floyd not playing. We’re also seeing now with samson, and a couple other less extreme examples of Hurley...

Idk I don’t feel that strongly about it, just speculating, and obviously any nba team will do their due diligence anyway…but the second it comes out he re-injured the foot, even if it’s a minor miss one game injury, his foot holding up becomes a bigger media issue for the rest of the year and...

Last couple years the men’s option was butler this year it was one of the early season Hartford games that you could find on stubhub for $4 after fees. Another sign of the increased demand

Long term dealing with another foot injury is probably a lot more concerning to nba teams than if he sprained his ankle so I could see it making some sense to try to pass it off as he sprained his ankle

When you take a shot at the cum bowl you cross a line.

People’s takes are so over the top with gampel vs xl. Xl is not a neutral court lol. Maybe when we play Manhattan it is, not for a big game. It gets loud for a big game. it’s also not a better environment than gampel on any type of consistent basis

It’s not Kansas but gampel was electric for every big east game last year. Players were raving about the atmosphere against freaking Georgetown. I hate xl and hate we play there but nova game 2 years ago was absolutely insane. If you go back and watch the highlights note how many time the...

Yea. Today the students show up to gampel and big games in Hartford and they are into it but other than standing all game and putting arms up on free throws the student section isn’t much different than the regular sections. Barely any of our traditional chants, no jumping up and down on defense...

I’d certainly bring him in if it’s to add another qb to compete for the starting job. If it’s pay him big nil dollars and basically guarantee he starts that’s a different story.

They do that again now at gampel but I think just the lower bowl, can’t remember if they ever do it at xl. But yes, agreed with the overall point that they are lacking creativity these days

Because in a game like this every minute matters. We had a shot at the end to win the game so that’s previous statement that we had nothing to lose just isn’t true. It’s a long season with plenty of chances to experiment that spot was not one of them

All the reports were nil had nothing to do with it, our offer was right there, at least for Flagg. We’ve also never really beaten out duke for that level recruit pre-nil. We were able to poach 2 key pieces on last years championship team, one of which is one of our best players this year. One...
