UConn is a bit like Penn State football in that they have heated matchups with certain programs for awhile but, especially since conference realignment, no real rival (PSU has the vestiges of one w/ Pitt but that's waning) (before I get jumped for the comparison that's the only similarity I'd...

That was incredible. I’ve got nothing to add to this thread. Just don’t want to be one of those jabronis who only shows up to kvetch after losses so here we are Has to be one of the more satisfying regular season wins in a long time. I don’t know where they found this defense but if it stays...

This board cracks me up. February calls for Koroma. Three page dissertations on the effects of solo’s poor shot selection and Mullins is putting up 30 footers 8 seconds into the shot clock. Pegging Ross as the savior because he’s the only perimeter defender other than Silas who doesn’t get...

Great win. Reed was huge. Offense was balanced and shot selection much better. Both solo and Mullins play best within the confines of the offense and not jacking up shots. I know Hurley dangled changing the starters up but to me that’s pure motivational tactic and not serious. Ross is a good...

You’re the resident Ross truther so it’s expected but the whole “he’s shot 80%+!” when you cite a stretch that includes three consecutive games where he took four shots…..total, is sort of funny. If Ross starting gets Solo back into a groove and gives the team a needed jolt, fine. But the Ross...

Ball was second team all big east last year. The guy put up 20+ two games in a row a few back that essentially saved the offense’s ass against bad teams. Talking about ball and Ross being national championship level players when they’ve both won one - albeit playing little- is sort of funny...

Do you want to see a higher floor or a higher ceiling? Solo is a mess right now but we know that when his head is on right and he's healthy he's all big east caliber on the offensive end and only awful on defense. Right now his shot is a mess and his defense is atrocious. You fix some of that...

We can toss around all of the lineup changes we want on here, it doesn’t matter. This team has a hard ceiling and it’s not a championship. Solo is lost. Karaban is a good kid but he’s disappeared and he’s not really much of a leader. Mullins is talented but a complete chucker who saves our...

Because he doesn't win. If Hurley didn't win they'd either just dismiss him as an annoying buffoon (like some do his brother) or love him for his antics. People don't like him because he's our nutty dick and he smacks their team around.

I don’t get this take. Mullins gets plenty of screens. It’s the middle of February so he should know the offense too. He’s just not great at getting open around them and every team knows he’s thinking “shoot the 3” so he’s an easy guard off the ball right now He has a pretty advanced midrange...

Reibe should not play over Reed you people are loons. Have you forgotten the stretch of games where he completely disappeared? Reed isn’t perfect but we don’t win it all without him coming close to his ceiling. Gotta dance with the one you brought. Karaban is a great player who messes up in...

Am I crazy for not understanding the charges in this thread that Mullins doesn't get enough run for him? I think, as Dan Hurley said, it took him awhile to get used to the offense, but I see him running the same actions as Solo etc when they're the focal point of the offense as well. I think he's...

If Boatright were what, four or five inches taller he would have spent a decade in the NBA. Kid was a gamer, tough as nails, played great D, could play alongside a ball dominant guard..... One of the last great recruiting connections to JC too

Sir this is a Wendy’s

Ross had a phenomenal block yesterday. He also had some awful defensive possessions and did nothing on offense. He shouldn’t be starting, but he is a hugely important part of the team. When he and/or Stewart come off the bench and contribute anything on offense/don’t turn the ball over/play...
