I'm Dominican (from the island). I'll tell you that a lot of Dominican parents have this urge to make up names. Esp the past few decades when people moved away from using almanacs / bible for naming. Its become too common now in our community to combine names, to make up a random one, or the...

Had issues accessing a few mins ago. But its back!

Had a great time at Legends. Packed to the brim. looking forward to monday night. I think UConn got this!

I'll be with my wife at Legends - NYC

The amount of hate Danny Hurley receives all over the Social Media world is inexplicable. So much hate. Way before this E8 game. Its absolutely crazy. It feels like nowadays the average person has no respect for greatness and for those that excel in their craft. (I see the same hatred for...

I get from the responses to my comments above that all the players from 2024 have move on. But there is no way that the coaching staff and the fan base doesn't have at the very least some trauma from this game. This will in the back of their minds all game. It has to. I sure as hell wouldn't...

Oh c'mon. Now you are just sounding rigid... As fans most of us do this all the time. We root for teams in the bracket we think will give our team an easier path. I dont see anything wrong with that. I think it makes it more fun and engaging. It doesnt mean we are overlooking our team's...

I checked the Wikipedia page today: Not bad for a mid-major conference! For as long as Connecticut remains in the Big East this league is guaranteed to command a high level of respect. NO ACC, NO SEC! Power-4 administrators probably hate this so much!

I have to think that there has to be trauma from that 30-0 run from 2024. It can only help. lol

Don't you dare change it. Leave it alone at this point. The neighbors can deal with it a few more days

I've had the pleasure of bullying my own wife all morning long... 🤣 🤣 🤣 With 3 seconds left when Duke went up three she coldly says... "Well, I guess you gotta take the flag out of the front porch" (and she is the UConn alumnus) I tell her "game is not over yet"... And then we get one of...

That's a solid point. I always think about that. Each big win is what has made UConn what it is today. So in terms of meaningfulness and long-term impact for the program - Tate George will always be up there

It is the biggest shot. At least for me. (To leave no doubt they would have to win the NC next weekend) (1) vs. #1 seeded Duke (2) NCAA F4 on the line (3) The sequence of Mullins stealing the ball and on top of that make the 3 is legendary (4) What it means for the brand to beat Duke, another...

THIS CANNOT BE REAL.

For the OG fans: I thought the Big East wasn't really THAT good in the 90s? And that UConn in '99 ended a championship drought? I wasn't around them. So I'm genuinely asking. Was the league considered Elite during the early and mid 90s?
