What CBB fan base do you have tons of respect for?

[Greg]

I've spoken to a bunch of IU bball fans over the years and have usually found that they are good people with which to talk hoops. Usually a knowledgeable fan base, rarely dismissive or condescending and quite complementary of our program. Also, I feel a kinship to them as the school's bball program is always a huge source of pride for the state.

I'm interested to see what y'all say.

Clemson, a fun bunch, really good fans and polite and respectful, for the most part, to visitors. Of course they feel their team will destroy you so it is easy to be decent. Worse fans I ever saw were West Virginia. I felt I was lucky to get out of their stadium just slightly bloodied.

The only fan base that I have any respect for is the fan base that roots for the defending national champion UConn Huskies.

I agree 100 percent. I may be a singular being but when I speak, I feel like I’m representing all of us. We or me is definitely the most respected fan base ever.

What did they win exactly?

What did they win exactly?

More games than URI. @FriarJ didn't say it, but RI is unique in that there is no place in it more than an hour from Providence. It's a city-state.

More games than URI.

Ah, well there you have it. They really should have a banner made up or something.

 

[CL82]

Ah, they won games in the 60s and 70s. That's nice.

 

[CL82]

What? I asked what Providence "won" and you advised me that it was some games in the 60s and 70s. I think that's very nice for you.

(So, in your opinion, a PC fan coming on a Connecticut board to brag about PC is being trolled by Husky fans? Interesting take.)

If Kim English is good and you get good solid point guard play I think Providence has a chance to be really good this season, like Sweet 16 good.

Really, I think they have as good a chance anyone.

Lol I just wasn't sure what Providence had won. Thank you for clarifying.
