    UConn as a "brand" not quite there

    Fairfield County is the county with the largest population but only a little over a quarter of the population. And I would think that cities like Danbury, Bridgeport and Stamford which make up almost half of Fairfield's population have significant populations that are UConn fans.

    UConn as a "brand" not quite there

    Success plus exposure builds followers. Followers are important. They buy merchandise. They are part of the equation for the media in contract deliberation. It's interesting but not unexpected that UConn women's bb has more followers than the mens bb programs of UNC, Kentucky, Kansas and...

    OT: Kentucky NIL is out of hand

    This 22 mil is probably less than the unofficial NIL Calipari had while at Kentucky.

    Why Dan Hurley says UConn’s roster is ‘screaming’ for emergence of Jayden Ross, Jaylin Stewart

    Thanks. Am I reading it correctly that he was less of a liability on offense than defense. That the offense was almost similar to that when McNeeley was in.

    Why Dan Hurley says UConn’s roster is ‘screaming’ for emergence of Jayden Ross, Jaylin Stewart

    Great analysis but could you give us information as to who were the guards he was on the court with. My recollection is he seldom was in a game with Hassan. Plus when he was in the game he was frequently assigned the opposing teams best player. Regardless of last season that stretch from...

    Why Dan Hurley says UConn’s roster is ‘screaming’ for emergence of Jayden Ross, Jaylin Stewart

    During the post game interview with the media Hurley indicated they would like to give Ross 12-17 minutes and if he could make threes up to 20. I’m going to sound like HW but if Ross is asked to remain stationary on one or the other wings while the other players are running various plays and...

    Rewatched the game. The play you’re referring to was a foul on Stewart.

    He looked stronger and quicker driving to the basket. Cannot believe how quickly you read my post.

    It appears the coaches want the players to shoot much quicker in half court sets than the past few seasons. Any open look Ball, Karaban, Mullins, or Stewart had they took the shot. It looks really ugly when everyone is missing but with the players we have it is the way to play. If the...

    Watching games prior to UConn this was his style of play. I agree with you going against Tarris everyday will help him go strong to the basket. His defense surprised me. He improved from games I watched playing on the German team. But he was playing the four for the most part.

    In the ten minutes Ross covered Hand in the second half I don’t believe Hand scored. Nor did Ross foul him. In that time Ross had four defensive rebounds, two steals, one block one assist and scored his four points. He only twitched once on a Hand fake but recovered quickly to alter the...

    Chief’s Briefs: Boston College Edition

    He was assigned Hand in the 15-1 run. Hand had 18 free throws. Why? Because the only way we stopped him from scoring was by fouling him. Until Ross guarded him in that second half stretch.
