    2 Minutes of Castle D

    Kinda crazy that he didn't even know he was good at D until this year. I don't have the quote or a clip of the interview handy, but it was something like, I didn't really have to play D in high school. So I didn't learn I was good at it until this year.... or something like that.

    Dukie and Me

    I remember it well. Was in the student section. I had graduated in 98, but i still had friends in school who helped me get tickets. I was living in Los Angeles at that time. I remember in the days/weeks before i called into some late night national sports talk radio show. I forget the name of...

    UConn Coaches Road Show Returns June 4 (Southington) & June 5 (Stamford)

    Will they be evaluating antique furniture?

    Dukie and Me

    I have noticed the same. Much of the ire Duke fans had towards our squad seemed to directed mostly to JC. I suppose that's far, most of my hatred for Duke was hatred for K. I always felt our guy had to come from further behind, but caught K. Seems like Dukies didn't like any hint that someone...

    Bronny is actually what we need

    Tough to say, but he's been in the portal for a while and no news about interest from our side. So im thinking DH disagrees

    Cam Spencer’s contribution to an elite UConn offense

    Cam Spencer’s contribution to an elite UConn offense

    On the negative side and i apologize for being a downer, but im not sure the 2024 offense can be created again. Like many of you ive been watching this team for the bulk of my life. At 47 thats about 35 years of being a die hard fan.... and ive never seen the offense work like it did in 2024. It...

    Cam Spencer’s contribution to an elite UConn offense

    I continue to be amazed by how effective the offense was.... it didnt matter what the other team did. It didnt matter how poorly we shot. Nothing seemed to matter. They just got great shot after great shot after great shot. The opposition was irrelevant. Purdue was almost as helpless as Stetson.

    Sending five men to the offensive glass.....

    I listened to the interview as well... and although i agree that i dont think ive heard the comparison to "going for it" on 4th down before, i got the sense this was a known philosophical discussion in basketball. I got the impression from DH's tone. It didnt seem like he thought he was saying...

    Hurley talking next year and portal

    Did anyone post the interview with Reddick? It was good. I enjoyed DH talking about the design of the offense. He was inspired by the SF 49ers.... which was a surprise to hear. He wanted a few formations where multiple sets could be run from the same formation. The design of the offense was...

    UConn respect appears to be very high

    Respect is not the right word. Forced to kneel is more appropriate

    Dynasty

    For past 4 years i have questioned DHs ability to produce a better team than the previous. But every year DH has done it. The bar is finally so high he almost certainly cant do it again. But he's taking a good swing at it with the recent signee's

    Aidan Mahaney COMMITS to UConn (Merged)

    My interpretation of a comparison between career stats of Newton and Mahaney with a focus on first two years of both: Their shooting seems similar. Mahaney seems like a better 3 pt shooter. Maybe Newton is a better shooter in general Newton seems like a better distributor of the ball. Maybe...

    UConn and Texas finalizing a H/H Agreement

    Good timing for me. Austin is a 6 hour drive from Monterrey and about a 45 minute flight. Ill plan on going.

    Rashamel Jones on podcast.

    I took Spanish in the summer one summer semester. Rash was in my class. Seemed like a good dude. To be honest, thats how i describe most of my interactions with players. Solid people. I met a guy who went to Sryacuse in the late 80s early 90s. He had nothing but horrible things to say about...

    Charlie Villanueva Recruiting

    Charlie Villanueva Recruiting

    Im assuming it was legal. Probably part of the "official visit" allowances. If we do the same, where does the plane land? Im sure some place closer than Bradley. Maybe East Hartford? In both Champaign Il and Lawrence KS they likely land in town.. minutes from campus. Lots of flat land in the...

    Charlie Villanueva Recruiting

    Interesting interview. Im hoping some of these x-college stars start to open up about what perks they received when it was illegal to receive such things.

    This needed its own thread

    The concept of "blue blood" has jumped the shark. It doesnt mean anything. Also... there's like 10 people on the internet trolling around and claiming we are not in the club. Everyone that matters agrees we are

    What grade are you in now? Edit: just being cheeky. Dont eat them much myself, but i in fact love fish sticks

    Mayonnaise on French Fries??

    What do you put on fish sticks? I dont think there's a rule that prevents you from making tarter sauce with another type of pickle relish

    Mayonnaise on French Fries??

    Its just mayo and relish.... mostly mayo. Also it apparently fits the definition of aioli based on other posts. So why single out tarter sauce? Its the condiment of choice for fish sticks. Does anyone disagree with the usage of tarter sauce on fish sticks? Probably very few. Furthermore a fish...

    Mayonnaise on French Fries??

    Tarter sauce for me. Not mayo but close enough that i answered yes

    Roumoglou Enters the Portal (Merged)

    A 3 or 4 year project just isnt a thing anymore is it. Which may be for the best. Sometimes a 3 or 4 year project works out. Guys like Hilton really developed late. But i also think of guys like Antric Klaiber who never really played. The Antric Klaiber types would of probably done better at a...

    Exclusively plays garbage time, but he always seems to jack up a 3 when he gets into the game. Feels like he never misses.

    Basketball. Invented in Massachusetts. Perfected in Connecticut.

    Living in the midwest for a long time ive met many who believe basketball was invented in Kansas. The casual kansas fan literally believes Naismith hung the peach baskets for the first time on a wall in Lawrence. Got in a mild argument about it in a bar one time. I hate being the person who...

    What is the best individual, single-game performance in UConn history?

    Ben Gordon had some steller games in 2004. I dont have the numbers handy, but he was lights out against Nova in the BE tournament... i think it was 2004

    Reality vs fear

    I can't say I 100% align with the original post, but what are others concerned about. Is it one of the following: P4 or P2 or whatever it becomes creates their own tournament or simply muscles all the other schools out of the existing tournament? Px simply has so much more money they buy all...
