    2019 UConn Commit #4 - Jayce Medlock (DeSoto Tx)

    DeSoto is one of the biggest and most successful programs in the DFW area. If he sticks and SMU doesn't poach him, I think you will have a good player. SMU has struggled recruiting DeSoto. As far as the Frisco Lonestar kid who decommitted, don't lose any sleep over that. My kids went to...

    OT: Best Pizza in CT

    Since my son moved to Boston, I have been looking for good pizza. Pizzeria Regina was highly recommended, but I have to agree, it was awful. I expected it to be similar to Modern Apizza but I was very wrong. I would rather get a slice from a food court in Dallas than ever go back there.

    Classy

    I was on Facebook this evening and saw this post from my cousin. I thought I would share it here because it reflects the class of your fanbase: When a random UConn WBB fan reaches out too you regarding your injured daughter, you realize God is truly in control. This kind message lifted my...

    Is Ollie Serious

    Way more. At least double. Thinking that was only $1,800 may be the most offensive thing I've read about the suit

    Best Boston/Cambridge Bar to Watch UCONN Game

    I'm definitely an SMU fan. Between my wife and I, we have four degrees from the school and I played football there. But my son is in Boston and fingers crossed, we find out today if my daughter got into Wellesley. That being said, I've kinda adopted UCONN as my New England D1 school so I have no...

    Best Boston/Cambridge Bar to Watch UCONN Game

    Thanks for all the replies. I actually fly out tomorrow and am planning to take my son and his girlfriend out for a nice dinner while I am in Boston. I've heard Legal Seafood is pretty good, but would love more options. I pretty much eat everything, so all suggestions are welcomed.

    Best Boston/Cambridge Bar to Watch UCONN Game

    I will be in Boston next Thursday through Sunday and am looking for a good place to watch the SMU game with my son. I looked for tickets, but the only areas where I could get two seats together was in the nosebleed sections so I decided to just go to a bar. My son is only 19, so any...

    I cannot believe our seniors

    I won't comment on the game, but I feel confident in saying that season 2 was the most boring season. That being said, it was easily the most imported season.

    OT: Public Transportation from Boston to Hartford

    Yes, I do, in fact, live in Texas, but my son goes to school in Boston and my daughter has only applied to colleges in the NE area so I will be traveling in the area quite a bit in the coming years. And while we get more snow in Dallas than most of the state, schools and business shut down at...

    OT: Public Transportation from Boston to Hartford

    Thanks for all the responses, I will make my decision on how to get there once I make it to Boston and have a better idea of what the weather is like. I'm really looking forward to going to this game. As far as pizza is concerned, I would love suggestions becasue we did not like the pizza we...

    OT: Public Transportation from Boston to Hartford

    My son has his conference championship the same weekend that SMU plays in Hartford and I am considering making the trip to Hartford for the game. As a native Texan, I do not drive in the snow and was wondering if there are any public transportations options from Boston to Hartford in the event...

    OT. Things to do in Houston

    And while I have never been to this restaurant, I have heard that Treebeards is excellent for lunch. And the person who gave that recommendation gave me the best dining recommendations for random places we ended up when my son and I took our cross country trip to Boston this summer, so I...

    OT. Things to do in Houston

    From someone who has lived in Houston, rent a car and leave the city. Drive to Austin. It's a short drive. I hate Houston and all things Houston. The only thing that I refuse to leave Houston without doing is stopping at a Shipley's Donut and getting hot glazed donuts. If they aren't hot...

    Beer

    I should have checked this before my last trip to Boston. I was aimlessly trying local brews with no direction. Though I have to admit, I was a big fan of Down East Cider. And of course, I can't get that in Texas.

    Terrence Ferguson

    We have already been sanctioned. The kid at the center of this mess transferred mid season and was arrested this week. Larry Brown served his nine game suspension, we're banned from post season and lost nine scholarships. We've appealed the scholarship reduction. That being said, Ferguson has...

    You know what sucks most about this conference?

    With respect to Big 12 expansion, I believe, because of football, UConn is behind Memphis and Cincinnati. I also fear that if UH gets it's basketball house in order, which it appears they will, they will be a candidate for the Big 12 sooner than you would think. And while I can understand...

    OT - How good is SMU?

    I have watched ever game this season except last night's game and I honestly cannot answer the question. Something clicked after the TCU game and the team is playing the best I have ever seen in my 20+ years of following the team. Last night neither Frazier nor Kennedy played. We are thin in...

    NCAAT- Who to root for?

    I was in no way comparing SMU and Houston to your basketball program. That would be blasphemy. My comment was more global as it relates to all sports. When the Big XII expands, I believe Memphis and Cincinnati will be in the discussion. Well ahead of any other team in the conference. From a...

    NCAAT- Who to root for?

    I started reading this board last year as I was rooting for UCONN after SMU got snubbed. Personally I've always rooted for conference teams except Memphis. I dislike the city and the team. Now for my tangent. I was really looking forward to BE basketball. I grew up watching those teams and...

    Big East vs. AAC

    Without question we crapped the bed at the beginning of the season, but you have to remember we played those OOC games without Kennedy or while he was far from in playing shape. It's not an excuse, but I think you all would agree that we are a much better team with MK than we are without him.

    memory lane: how many schools have had prize recruits / players bail on them just before the season?

    Emmanuel Mudiay is the most recent for our Ponies. The other, and yes, I have to go way back, is Larry Johnson. LJ, if memory serves correctly, committed but could not get into the university academically. We all know what he did at UNLV.

    Congrats from Dallas

    I'd like to second PonyUp's comments. I've been reading this board for a while and never wanted to post. To put it mildly, we were run over yesterday by a speeding Ferrari. I know you guys have been down on Purvis this year, but if plays like he did yesterday, there aren't many teams that can...
