    Kelis Fisher inconsolable at Senior ceremony; Sarah teases of her

    I loved the answer that one of the Huskies gave in the post game presser - they were asked about the new players who haven't been here that long regarding how emotional they got. The answer was something like "it's just a testament to this program and the players here - even new players come in...

    Jeopardy Tonight

    Please tell me he did not. That would be a dumb answer even for a NBA player. Who keeps stats of slam dunks per game???

    Tennessee 2025, part 2

    Good grief. Please read what I posted. Hyperbole much? Come on man.

    Tennessee 2025, part 2

    I read on their board from several people that Kara apparently burned bridges on her way out of Tennessee. Someone here said somethingi about resigning from the board of trustees. Makes sense. But let's be honest - Duke is light years better than Tennessee as a school, much easier to recruit to...

    Player of the year?

    IMHO I think Sarah would need to have a host of games where she scores close to 10 PPG. I think she has enough hype and momentum to carry her to the NPOY award(s), but I know she's been under the weather. I hope she rests up and gets healthy for the NCAA's. The thing about Sarah is that every...

    OT - The wonder of the snow!

    Hey guys - PLEASE POST PICTURES IF YOU CAN!!! I live in San Diego (duh - hence my name) and have been gone from Connecticut for almost 40 years, but I do miss the serenity and insulated quiet of a huge snowstorm (especially from inside my house with a nice fire burning!!)

    Quiñonez left home at 13 to play basketball. Now she's thriving at UConn

    What a tremendous article, and how fun to learn about her family and upbringing. Her family has had some rough times, and given how women's hoops salaries are set to rise by a lot, her future as an elite athlete could help her and her family immeasurably. And she's just a great kid. So glad...

    Kibitzer Memorial Badass Award

    It's a tough call for me but gotta go with KK for her 8 steals and 10 assists. Also she was on the floor when UConn made it's first big run putting the game out of reach for PC. Also I think her defense was demoralizing to the PC guard(s) and that's the definition of a badass to me. Shout out...

    Providence Postgame Thread

    I thought it was an uneven game. Long stretches of average offensive execution. PC really ramped up the defense in the 2nd half. But UConn's defense was crazy. 39 turnovers for PC? Holy steal Batman! Big shout out to our seniors, but what the heck with Patterson? On edit... Patterson was...

    Meanwhile, over in Europe…

    So may of our alums are overseas or in other leagues playing really well. I'd love to see a place for Dorka, Kaitlyn, Evina, Megan, Christyn, Crystal, etc. in the WNBA...

    A Look at Villanova Since Our Last Matchup

    If Hurley coaches and plays the guys the way he did against Creighton, we lose IMHO. He needs to make changes and we will see if he does, and how that goes. I do not feel confident about this game.

    Geez…We are 24-3, we played poorly and lost a game..relax

    I don't know that there is anything that can be done about the individual defense at this point for the players who are weak at it. But maybe there are some defensive setups Hurley can set up that masks the problem. And there are individuals who are defensive liabilities. the problem is subbing...

    Why Auriemma isn’t surprised by UConn WBBs late-season struggles

    I also hope the players get healthy. Sounds like Sarah still has the flu, or whatever has been "bugging" her. I wonder if any other players are affected. It was great having Blanca back, even if she looked rusty in her early minutes.

    Top 3 Things You Want To See Against Providence on Sunday- Game is at Gampel at Noon on FS1

    There are 4 teams worse than PC in the big east, with Butler and DePaul at the bottom, so while this game should not be competitive, it's not like I expect a 60 point blowout. I'd like to see a more consistent effort and for the team to simply play better. I'm not sure if some of the team is...

    Tennessee 2025, part 2

    It's awesome seeing Tennessee crash and burn. Couldn't happen to a nicer fan base LOL. You should hear some of the comments on their board - time to "fahr Kim" and they could have their "pick of the litter". Staley, Walz, Mulkey are just a few of the names being floated. They could have "anyone...
