    Bracket talk

    Who cares? We beat a 16 or we beat a 15, and then it’s like Danny said: “And the thing about UConn is, once we get out of that first round, we think we're supposed to win it.”

    March General CBB Discussion Thread

    Thought I’d paste this here because it brings me such joy (from CBS article on coaching hot seats): “The Orange are in danger of falling entirely off the college basketball map after three unimportant seasons under Red Autry. Most everyone tasked with tracking the job market in college...

    Former NBA player going back to school?

    If this happens, we should re-recruit Adama for next year's team. I am absolutely, 100-percent not kidding.

    Seton Hall Post Game Thread

    Trust me. There’s nothing I want more than for Solo to return to form. And I believe he will. But right now … I actually thought he was good on the defensive glass tonight.

    Positives of playing in the big east

    Is Sarah Strong going to have the best UCONN career of all time?

    A little OT, but I was trying to think of a good comparison for Sarah (other than a 6’ 9” Steph Castle with a better jump shot), and it occurred to me that the way she controls the game reminds me of Zinedine Zidane. You youngsters might not get it, but that’s high praise, even if it makes no sense.

    OT: Other non-UConn Pro and College teams UConn fans support

    I was thinking about this the other day. As college hoops fans, we're kind of like the U.S. after World War II, in that we throw our whole-hearted support behind any teams we vanquish, a la Japan and Germany. Thus, this season, I'm a big fan of BYU, Illinois, Kansas and Florida ... at least...
