    Better Home Court?

    I thought nova was a lot louder but that’s not an insult on last night, nova was maybe the loudest UConn crowd I’ve ever been a part of. Perfect storm of a hyped game, an irate crowd from the bs Hurley ejection, and a thrilling game. I have season tickets at both, still prefer gampel but like...

    OT: Teachers and Students. Group Projects.

    In high school it’s definitely all the rage now. Not necessarily just actual long projects but doing regular work in groups. Reaction from students and teachers is mixed at best, but it’s definitely being pushed by the higher ups. I’m not a math teacher but in math especially many places...

    Poor fan showing at Gampel

    Maybe one thing they could do is release them in person at the ticket office or somewhere first, so especially for the biggest games those willing to line up early or at least go in person can guarantee themselves tickets, and then after that initial window release the rest online. And then if...

    Poor fan showing at Gampel

    Getting into a back and forth with clown like ed Cooley would have been the definition of taking the bait And again, this was the strongest Dan has criticized the crowds but it’s far from the first time

    Poor fan showing at Gampel

    How exactly does the online claim process work now? And like is it a situation where all tickets are gone within minutes and legit fans do miss out, or do all the seats go eventually but anyone who really wants to go has plenty of time to claim seats?

    Poor fan showing at Gampel

    -a lot of issues that are hard to fix but allowing students to transfer seats again needs to happen immediately. If they can come up with something better for next year to make sure the student seats are full by the biggest fans than great but the current setup is terrible -I sit in the corner...

    Poor fan showing at Gampel

    Don’t think so just the student section has sucked for years and keeps getting worse. Outside of during opponent free throws it just feels like another section. Usually they at least show up to gampel though, that amount of empty seats last night was awful. Other than that, look the quality of...

    What do we have returning for '26?

    Not when he first took the job, he was very visible and making the rounds everywhere then. That said, different time different circumstances. Program was in a state that it needed more outreach, and the portal wasn’t as big of a deal quite yet. Right now the only priority should be the roster...

    Stop. Leaving. Early.

    Don’t know but in the upper bowl last night tons left at the under 4 timeout when the game was far from decided and then there was a 2nd exodus later once the game seemed decided. Seemed mostly middle aged people. People leave early every game pretty much but this was the worst I could remember...

    UConn Announces Jason Candle as New Head Football Coach (Updated)

    Absolute home run. I thought whoever we got would come with question marks. Whether it was an fcs head coach who we don’t know if they could win at this level, or a coordinator who we don’t know if they could be a head coach, or an nfl guy who needs to adjust to college. I see no question...

    A message from Mora

    He’s been pretty consistent in his message that being independent is a big disadvantage. Competing for conference championships and potentially a playoff berth matters. His stock realistically isn’t getting any higher than it is right now so he may have decided it’s the time to make a move even...

    Duke Post Game Thread

    Did Joe even enter the portal? UConn fans were hoping for a replacement because everyone thought he was out of eligibility. Think basically everyone was very comfortable with him being our starter once we knew that was a possibility

    Duke Post Game Thread

    Just such an impressive showing from everyone. Players, coaches, fans. Definitely the best win we’ve had since the RE 1.0 days. As great as Houston and liberty were they felt like wins that we were able to find a way to steal while this one felt like 2 good teams just going back and forth and if...

    Hurley book review

    Definitely plenty of new content even if you listen to every Hurley interview. Finished it today really good book. Found the last chapter especially very motivating

    What attendance would constitute a good showing on Saturday?

    Yea but they’ve been using that word for years. And previous years for the fcs game they would do things like give every season ticket holder a free extra ticket which unless I missed the announcement they didn’t do this year. I was surprised to see the number when it was announced but before...
