Why couldn't they? Our offense doesn't rely on a traditional PG to run things. The more guys on the floor who are triple threats, the better...

100% forgot Tate played in the NBA, let alone was a first round pick...

But doesn't it work both ways? The execution was poor because the style didn't fit the personnel. Having Aidan trying to be Patrick Beverly 25 feet from the hoop was never, ever going to work. We obviously knew that Solo, Jaylin, AK, and others were poor defenders in isolation. So we had them...

You get torched by Creighton. McDermott has never won the big ones, but he always game plans us very well and often makes us look bad. That's not a coincidence. Why they were the only team to consistently just have their big play goalie against us, knowing that our 5's will, for no good reason...

Yes! A high hedge argument. The issue with the high hedge is as much about the rotations as it is about our big being 8958 feet away from the hoop. Last year, Samson would hedge to half court, but that required poor defenders to rotate and consistently give up either easy looks near the hoop or...

You said it right there... Those days of in-service rob me of my soul. Then the kids come back, and I'm good to go.

100% was an issue last year. Other than Diarra, there was really no one on that team who had any spunk to them. That was coming from a team with TN, Cam, Castle, and DC all of whom had some edge. I like our roster this year, but I'm not sure we've really added any additional toughness, to be honest.

53 years in the classroom is equal parts insane and incredible. I just started year 22 and my bitterness is at an all-time high.

Same thread every year. Last year some of you had us going 12 deep and averaging 127 points and at least two guys going lottery. It’ll play out how it always does. Hurley will get 8-9’deep, some guys who we expected to play more or contribute won’t, and we’ll go into the offseason watching who...

I want the other teams to do well. If they do, that's great. If they don't, I don't really bat an eye. When I was at UConn, I went to everything, and especially was into football since my neighbors were players and the team was always around. But I'm not much of a CFB fan so they just kinda...

GOAT? No. But obviously our greatest winner. GOAT is reserved for guys who won big and AA types. Even with an another title this year, I don’t see Alex being an All-American. If we win this year, it will be more about Solo and Tarris being a dominant 1-2 punch.

Is this really the fifth year?

Always amazes me how world class athletes in one sport can often look so uncoordinated and unathletic in another.

Singare played minutes in three meaningful games last year. In 23 minutes had four points (all in one game), six rebounds, and six fouls. The idea that we needed to replace him with some tall stiff was bizarre to me. I'm certain Koroma or Alex can give us meaningful minutes if Reibe/Reed is in...

This team literally didn't miss one shot in the OPs video. They're gonna be crazy good. (Until the BY wants to bench AK for a walk-on or something)
