    Where is our commissioner?

    How many titles won out of the west versus the others? Hurley is testing his underwear.

    Where is our commissioner?

    You have good points. I don’t argue for the sake of it. With regard to your fear of a conspiracy theory label: - every detective is a conspiracy theorist.

    Where is our commissioner?

    I might be crazy, but this might work out better for next year. This year the teams that got n give the conference a good shot at posting a winning record. Usually conferences and maybthat get in a lot have to scrape by to hit ,500. If we get 3 teams in at the 10-11 line, we are lucky to hit...

    Best Coaching Staff In The Country

    They are fantastic assistants, but the idea that they would only leave for a blue blood is a little silly. If Ohio State didn’t give that job to the assistant who just got them on a nice little run, you’re telling me Luke or Kimani wouldn’t take it? Michigan and Louisville seem tough right...

    OT: Tiege Hanley Ad with Spencer, Clingan, and Sanogo (Merged)

    My question is who directed the commercial. That guy got everyone (non-actors) to do their parts perfectly. He or she got them comfortable enough to go through the games and make it work brilliantly. This is a secret known by actors and stand ups - actors are only as good as their directors...

    UConn in the NBA March 2024

    These numbers don’t make sense to me, unless Andre skipped the max vertical and only his standiing very was reported. According to this 2023 nba combine report, Andre was only fifth in max vert at 39.5” - 2023 NBA draft combine: The top measurements, including wingspans, from Day 1

    UConn in the NBA March 2024

    I recall being perplexed by his nba combine vertical only being listed around 39”. Here he’s 4’ or so/.

    Duke loses (again)...so, Cooper, maybe you want to reconsider?

    He chose elsewhere - that’s fine, but I don’t want him. Is he so good that he could be a ballpark Donyell sophomore season as a freshman? I don’t know, but find that hard to fathom. And I don’t want many freshman 1& sones, no matter what.

    Alex Karaban Recruitment

    Even garbage schools provide a solid education if one wishes to receive it. My undergrad was ECSU / Wesleyan. I needed ECSU to learn how to write a proper paper, and had several phenomenal professors there. At Wesleyan, there was an entirely different standard, and I had to drop track and...

    EvanMiya player rankings

    Last year’s team had interesting numbers to say the least. Andre Jackson 3 Clingan 7 Newton 28 Sanogo 41 Hawkins 42 Karaban 160 Also, on this year’s list Diarra is 88.

    Who can beat them?

    A lot of those teams can beat us on the right day. But, I really worry about Purdue. I think of Emeka fouling out three Duke players in 2004, and wondering if Edey would do that to us.

    I've been a UConn fan since 1980 and can't remember a UConn team only having 2 losses this late in the season

    Isn’t that around the time some folks said Calhoun had reached his ceiling? So glad we listened to them!

    I appreciate all of your work. This is an exceptional piece of sports journalism. But, don’t let it go to your head. (I don’t do emojis).

    Andrea Hurley returns to TOP DOGS!

    He’s not Ollie, He doesn’t have it in his blood to get distracted. And, he won’t be here forever. I don’t see him leaving for another school, possibly the NBA. But, I don’t want him to shorten his life by staying here longer than he should. It’s funny, as a junior high/ early high schooler...

    We Should Be #1 on Monday

    I can understand ranking Purdue at 1, if we’re going based upon accomplishments only. But, overall, no team right now looks like a true #1. I think eventually we have a good chance to look like a true #1 with a healthy Clingan. I guess, rather than look at rankings and where they should or...

    Leading Scorer Poll

    I thought for sure he was an 11-12 ppg game. And, that would make sense based upon his fga - basically the same as last year (9.9 fga / 13.2 ppg), but with 3 more ppg (10.1 fga/ 16.3). Granted, competition is about to step up, but I certainly didn’t predict an increase in efficiency on a new team.

    Best NBA Player to Come Out of the Big East

    I agree - heck MJ even said he’d pick Ewing as the guy (excluding himself) that he would start a team with. I just said a mention - I don’t think Mourning was as good as Ewing.

    I’d give Alonzo Mourning a mention as well.

    Jay Williams as a color commentator

    I think I’ve heard him tell the story a bit differently before. More like JWill called Calhoun to tell him he was coming, but Calhoun had already taken his last scholarship player for that class. If Robertson committed before JWil was ready, that’s plausible. Hard to imagine how talented...

    OT: Who looks like the best team in hoops now?

    I’m assuming a win over Indiana. How is Texas looking? I’m assuming/hoping that’s the first real test.

    OT: Who looks like the best team in hoops now?

    You’re a good egg. But, sometimes folks write on telephones without care. Grammatical and punctuational mistakes don’t need to be called out every time. By the way, it took me 7 attempts to spell a basic work like punctuational. Vision sucks now,.

    OT: Who looks like the best team in hoops now?

    I haven’t seen them yet. Where might you guesstimate their rankings - not where AP will put them, but your perception based upon a few games? I’m not looking to call you out in two months when one or two may or may not fail - just curious if the potential you see if them in polls at the end...

    OT: Who looks like the best team in hoops now?

    That’s a completely fair initial assessment. And now it seems funny how the BY lost its mind when we failed to land Timberlake. We need Clingan to improve to play against Dickinson, but we have a good shot if Castle is back, and a reasonable chance without him.

    OT: Who looks like the best team in hoops now?

    Right now, it seems really hard to say. I missed the Arizona win over Duke. Our team looks okay, but not great. Michigan State seems to suck, but I expect them to get to the 15-20 range in time. Duke has flaws. Kansas barely beat a Kentucky team that had low early expectations (I don’t want...

    She is funny - she was great on the field of 68 during the tournament. And she hates Providence fans….

    Leading Scorer Poll

    This is tough. I don’t quite see it being Spencer or Karaban (i want to maintain their past efficiency and not increase volume too much). Clingan will have some days with early foul trouble and might not yet have the ability to return with monster second halves that Emeka and Sanogo could pull...

    Ngongba Visiting October 13th (First Night)

    I really wanted Ngongba, but let’s not forget that 2014 was won with Brimah at center. A mobile, medium shot blocking center who rarely scores and isn’t a fantastic rebounder isn’t insurmountable as a starter. I have to think, at a minimum, the staff will get Singare to that level. And...
