    Too bad point differential in games against each other isn't the tie breaker. 😄

    As remarkable those two stats are, I think UConn having only three turnovers the entire game against a St John's team that turns teams over like flapjacks is the most eye popping.

    St. John's Post Game Thread

    Tonight was what we thought this team was capable of. It's hard to believe this is the same team that lost to Creighton. Just an absolutely enjoyable game to watch. One that I might watch the replay all over again.

    Hands down, their best performance of the season. Hopefully this is that game where they turn the championship corner like they've done before.

    Dan Hurley article in the Athletic

    This article reminded me of one of the bigs in the past when Calhoun was coaching decided not to return the following season and transfered instead. For some reason I'm thinking it was Toraino Walker. Yeah, here's what I found: Toraino Walker was a standout recruit for the University of...

    A Look at St. John's Since Our Last Matchup

    Let's make sure we're winning by halftime and then just cancel the second half. 😄 It's not like we have had our share of close and overtime wins. Can't discount their impressive long winning streak. With that said, all I want is to finish the game with at least one more point than them. I...

    Villanova Post Game Thread

    I've said it many times, when defenders are rushing at them they should quickly drive right into them drawing a foul instead of trying to dribble away or ward them off. Now the one caveat to all that is if the refs aren't calling anything then you might just end up turning it over with the ref's...

    Villanova Post Game Thread

    I couldn't watch the game live. What was with the refs allowing Nova to constantly bump and reach in against Demary without calling anything? Then the smallest amount of contact by Mullins and they call a foul. Demary was probably fouled about a dozen times without getting the call. Just...

    Question about our Man to Man defense

    You nailed it! I hope they can fix this. Not expecting perfection. Just some moderate improvement can result in a better outcome.

    Outcome if we played our OOC schedule now?

    Thanks for all the spirited discussion. If you read my entire post, I said, "...that I'm not writing this team off and still believe they have the talent and roster to turn the ship around." The eye test just points to a team that looks out of sorts. They've had some stretches where they...

    Outcome if we played our OOC schedule now?

    After suffering through last night's loss against Creighton and having watched some recently played games from the P4 Conference teams we played back in November and December, I wondered what would the outcome be if we played those teams now? BYU (I believe they lost one of their starters via...

    Creighton Post Game Thread

    I like what I saw with Tarris Reed Jr finally Dunking the ball with ferocity instead of the finesse bank shot. Message received! I like Demary attacking the paint and effort on D. I like how they looked for early offense instead of setting up their half-court set all night long. I didn't...

    Look for Early Offense

    Whatever you want to call it, it's fine with me. I just would like to see them look more often for some early good scoring opportunities before the defense gets set. It doesn't have to be an advantage number situation where UConn has more players than the opponent down the court. Just some...

    February General CBB Discussion Thread

    Looking at this 1 vs 7 contest, one would have thought it might be a good matchup seeing it's on Purdue's home court, but so far Wolverines are tearing it up. As much as I don't want to say this, but Michigan's A-Game might be the best in this year's field. But we all know all it takes is a...
