    We need to renew series against Notre Dame

    I agree 100% on this. What does it buy UConn to play this game? ND has been nothing but a thorn in the side of the Big East for the day they joined. They got way more out of it than they put in due to that bogus no-football thing. Make no mistake, it is part of the reason why the Big East is...

    Is there a Juco that could help our rebounding next year?

    JT III must have great AAU contacts.

    Is there a Juco that could help our rebounding next year?

    Juco aren't what they used to be since the NCAA lowered admissions requirements and basically allow schools to lower their requirements as low as they want. The kids that would have been good Jucos in the 80s and 90s are now playing at schools with joke admissions.

    How confident are you

    One of the claims made on this board over and over again is how great of a recruiter Ollie is and how the kids love him. Why shouldn't he be able to outrecruit Pastner then? And if Pastner outrecruited Calhoun, why? What exactly does Pastner have to sell that Calhoun didn't? Was he in the...

    How confident are you

    Conference affiliation excuse = taking the escalator...period. Confernce affiliation only helps the lower teams in a conference get a couple of Top 100 kids. It doesn't impact blue chip players. UConn will be on national TV plenty of times because we are now an elite program which has won 3...

    How confident are you

    Conference affiliation is a "take the escalator" excuse. This is UConn. No conference affiliation doesn't affect ND football recruiting. Calipari was able to get McD AAs at umess and Memphis. I don't expect the re-alignment thing to impact Georgetown's recruiting. It is really simple at...

    Not saying it was the refs but...

    Refs are like elephants when it comes to negative press and poor treatment by any given coach. Too bad they aren't like elephants where the rule book is concerned.

    Not saying it was the refs but...

    The refs don't give breaks to a team that doesn't care about academics or graduating their players. The refs don't give breaks to a team whose hall of fame coach is a cheater, even if he did just retire. Like it or not, there is a dark cloud over the program and it has an effect. It is all...

    Refs admit they should have given UConn 2 points at start of OT

    The sad thing is that the refs are the worst part of the sport for several reasons. At its worst, youactually have corrupt refs determining the outcomes of games. And then you have biased refs who clearly have it in for certain coaches or favor others. I know many people assume this is a...

    Multi-year Extension for Ollie

    No, you weren't right. And even if you were, what does it matter? Go invent a time machine because that is the only way being right matters. For the rest of the universe having to obey causality, being right in the past is meaningless other than trying to stroke your fragile ego in some sort...

    It is either his dad or sister. It matches what they posted on twitter last year too well to just be coincidence.

    Missouri vs. UCLA

    Oriakhi's father must be bouncing off the walls. He hasn't posted on the Missouri site since I outted him a few weeks ago. I know he is just dieing to call Haith a slave master or some other nonsense.

    Jabari Parker castigated over Duke decision

    I have to agree with Mau on this one. I hate that Duke gets so many top players and always wondered if K was totally above board but K ain't no squid and I applaud Parker for not choosing the dark side.

    It's just so very sad

    I agree with your argument about civil rights in conflict. The example I would give is the right of the public to live safely being more important than the right of a mentally unstable man to buy or carry a gun. But that doesn't mean the rights of normal citizens to buy and own a gun should be...

    Oh, how many times have we heard geniuses be called crazy? Few if any of you are capable of comprehending Einstein's work. He was said to be crazy at first too, for some of his theories which took decades to be proven. I really don't care if a coward and fool, who is willing to piss away his...

    >> UConn could be left behind [NY DAILY NEWS: 12/16/12]

    Nothing this dope says has credibility. He, like many of those at Yahoo and CBS Sports, are among those that Calhoun pissed off over the years. He is one of the squid's prostitutes.

    Add Fordham and UMASS to the New Big East basketball only

    I'm glad to be rid of the nasty ugly PeeCee fans. We don't need to associate ourselves with another equally screwed up fan base in umess. And I don't care what BC fans say about UConn. They are idiots. Truth is truth and bullsh!t is bullsh!t. We are above umess and BC, BOTH. Truth!

    Yep, and many of those people would be within the three branches of government. That threat is enough to keep them from trying to gain absolute power. At this point, there is no need for this and, hopefully, there never will be. As of right now, the fat cats at the top have too much to lose...

    It's just so very sad

    Reagan, two Kennedys and several other presidents and members of congress have been victims of attacks by simple hand guns. And those were unorganized nutjobs. Imagine what a motivated and organized militia could do. I'm not saying that fear of assasination drives the daily votes in congess...

    It's just so very sad

    Ultimately, yes. This is what the founders had in mind. Their fear of death is stronger than their greed. But, you are right, both drive their actions. Consider what the president and congress could do if they wanted to. We could quickly lose what little democracy we have left. It is...

    You saying it doesn't make it so. The first sign of a profound lack of wisdom is the assumption that anyone who disagrees with you must be "wrong". That is your ego talking and being scared is your mind fearing that it could be wrong. Have you considered that a completely abusive government...

    The atrocities that occured during the end of the Roman Empire and the dark ages were at least as ugly as this. They didn't need guns. Swords, a mace, rope and horses were sufficient to wipe out entire villages, including women and children. Humans are imperfect and humanity occasionally goes...

    Good point. Not to distract people from their fear based knee jerk anti-gun crusade but has anyone heard any more information about the New Jersey connection to this incident? We now know his father is alive and lives in Stamford. We also know the brother was working and is not the other...

    Add Fordham and UMASS to the New Big East basketball only

    Seriously, you should be banned for even mentioning umess. To say they are beneath us is an understatement. Even in one of our darkest seasons, we are still a much better team. Like any team, they could get lucky once out of evey 20 or so games and beat us. Why give those crappy fans the...

    No, it wasn't. You are just incapable of understanding his logic. However, it is only one piece to this giant issue/puzzle. Unless someone wants to post a 500 page thesis on the subject in this thread, it is a waste of time to debate it on the internet. It is too inefficient to type out your...

    Big East?

    Perhaps it is because you can't understand the nuances. There is one assumption built in which is that Hathaway stayed in his job longer than he would have if it weren't for Geno's support. I concede that there is no way of knowing how much more time Geno's support may have bought Hathaway...

    Big East?

    I think Geno is the best basketball coach in the country, men or women, college or pro. However, he is at least partly responsible for this situation. He sided with Hathaway against Calhoun. Hathaway is responsible for destroying the football program at a critical time with his hiring of...

    NY Post Big East basketball-only schools to split from rest of conference: source

    You need to be put into time out. First, we are not good enough in football to thrive as an independent. Second, you would prefer playing in the same conference as UMass versus UNC, Duke, Syracuse, Louisville and Pitt? Step back from the edge of the cliff dude..........

    NY Post Big East basketball-only schools to split from rest of conference: source

    The Big East football schools should have never formed the Big East football conference. They should have broken off and formed a new conference. We would have had the teams you mentioned above plus Kansas, as you mentioned. And we still would have added Cinci and Louisville eventually. And...

    NY Post Big East basketball-only schools to split from rest of conference: source

    It will be OK guys. We will eventually get into the ACC. Until then, UConn can lead the effort to create the best non-power conference. The "sixth-man" if you will. I gave a list of potential teams above. There are a lot of considerations to picking the conference from that list. I went...
