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

    If Ross can be as disruptive and play good D versus Michigan state and the next tier up of athletes then I’ll be a lot more optimistic. Really hope he continues to trend up.

    Hurley preparing for UConn's preseason game vs. BC next week

    Interested to see if guard defense passes eye test relative to expectations, braylon vs stewart starting spot battle, and how Reibe does as the backup big. Do we know if mich state game will be televised? Dont see TV details on that one.

    UConn Bench Players Shoutouts

    Terrance Samuel and Lasan Kromah in 2014. Both played their roles really well: Kromah was a do it all lite glue guy, and Samuel got the rim consistently. Samuel didn't do much after 2014 and transferred but both did their part to contribute to the natty run.

    OT: Most influential U.S. athlete of the past 25 years?

    100% agree, I would say Tiger. Inspired a generation of people to watch and play golf that probably otherwise wouldn't have. Without him the entire sport wouldn't be where it is today. I would say close #2 between Lebron and Steph. LeBron lived up to the hype and ascended to reach the lofty...

    Is Karaban the GOAT if he gets third chip?

    Most decorated but not GOAT. Would have to be AA at least one season to really be considered. I think the point Hurley makes regularly about not winning until Alex arrived is important though. What he does in terms of BBIQ, shooting, and connective tissue is so important.

    Was available to specific donor levels as a paid event.

    Borges practice box score

    Doors opened at 10:30 and the actual practice started around 11. Two rows of sideline “courtside seats” maybe 50-60 people total. Practice was majority scrimmage on 7/25, Luke coached white team and Kimani coached blue. Sitting front row and hearing Kimani’s timeout “constructive criticism” was...

    Add One Former Player to This Roster

    Picked Emeka, Clingan was my second choice. This team wont have too many issues on offense or guard play IMO, need rim protection and offense rebounding. Important to emphasize this is not a best player discussion, more about roster needs and fit.

    Borges practice box score

    I hate to say it but I kind of agree. His shot selection was good but he didnt convert much on the looks. Did play better in fast break situations. Its very early and we dont know how new guys will perform under the bright lights but Ross will have to outcompete Mullins, and Furphy for min and...

    Borges practice box score

    Had the chance to attend today as well. Couple quick hitters: Reibe did some no contact pick n pop drills prior to the scrimmage, shot looks smooth. A lot of potential for 5 out with him in. Mullins shooting is as good as advertised. Him and Solo were going back and forth, both elite. Gonna...

    OT: Boneyard sneakerheads I have a question

    I use jason mark shoe cleaner, and you can put them in the laundry on cold cycle if theyre really bad (air dry). For mesh dont use a thick/rough bristle brush, use soft.

    Shabazz Napier was special

    Ultimate floor general, lights out shooter, onions galore. His ability and feel to. know when to take over with those back breaking hesitation threes in the tourney was a thing of beauty. I was in grad school during that run so didn't get a chance to go, but had a blast going to all the uconn...

    Cursed athletes, ones who played between the rings

    Jalen Adams. Other than his freshman year, he was on the downslope KO teams. Wish we got to see him in Hurley’s evolved offense. Even now he’s built a nice pro career overseas.
