Another one of these articles to rub salt in our wounds. Georgetown and Syracuse are also on the list.
UConn Huskies (7-10, 2-3 AAC)
There are two ways to look at the Huskies’ abysmal season. On one hand, it’s hard to put too much blame on Kevin Ollie and his club after two starters (guard Alterique Gilbert and forward Terry Larrier) suffered season-ending injuries within the first five games of the season. Few teams – if any – could handle that sting.
However, that doesn’t excuse the fact that UConn opened the season ranked No. 18 in the country, proceeded to lose to Wagner and Northeastern (while fully healthy) and has never really recovered. Even worse, it’s not like the Huskies are losing to elite teams. Of UConn’s 10 losses, only one (vs. Oregon at the Maui Invitational) came to a club projected to make the NCAA Tournament, according to FOX Sports’ latest Bracket Watch.
