    Dan Hurley “Seriously” Considered Stepping Down From UConn Last Year

    I think a lot of us have had those feelings in the job. It's human nature. Hurley admits it. Good for him. Hurley is a very intense, and some times emotional coach. The good ones are. No big deal. He can flat out coach. UConn is a high pressure program. The expectations are extremely high for...

    KK or Kayleigh, who's your guess?

    KK starts. She knows the system and she knows her teammates. K9 is going to get plenty of playing time. She has the skill set and the chemistry with her and the team will developed quickly. And I would be surprised to see both of them on the court at the same time.

    Serah Williams On Why UConn

    UConn does many things different than other teams. I like that Geno does not have a lot of public fanfare went potential transfers visit. He lets the team and the transfers get some time to find out about each other. For the transfer, it is a big move, maybe bigge r than their original choice...

    The Official 2025 New York Yankees Thread

    I have given up on the Yankees. I have been a fan sincee the later 50' early 60's. The trio of Steinbrenner, Cashman and Boone are a disaster. As long as these three remain, the Yankees are mediocre. It's a shame.

    Honestly, I Really Think This Year Will Be Very Interesting.

    There is always a learnimg curve for each season. This is not the same team that won the national championship. New players, returnees who have devloped their game, new combos on the court. Throw in what Geno and company have been developing for the offense and defense. And do not forget...

    Honestly, I Really Think This Year Will Be Very Interesting.

    The key will be evolution. Once everybody is on campus, the process will begin. The team chemistry will begin. Geno and company will do what they do best - teach. He will have a lot of games to give all the players game time. We get to watch this all happen. Life is good!!

    I agree but that's not going to happen.

    I'll continue to say it - Cashman and Boone need to go. But Hal won't fire Cashman.

    How many bigs will play meaningful minutes

    Many questions remain about how Geno will mix it all together. We all have our favorites that we think should get minutes. And there are some obvious choices. As Geno said early on last season, the small lineup developed quickly and was the best option. That proved true. What this season brings...

    The coming battle for the National Championship

    UConn and SC are the two dominant programs in WCBB. This is not in question. Southern Cal, UCLA are recent additions to the top. Texas is trying to be back in the top tier along with ND. SC and UConn is the big rivalry today. If you are going to pick right now the final four, my two locks...

    We're All Rooting For You, Jana!

    Geno and CD have said many times, over and over, it takes a couple of years for big posts to adjust to tehpace and size of D1 competition. And UConn plays at the highest level. Big post players coming out of high school usually have no competition of another post player of comparativfe size so...
