Another example might be Jake Voskuhl. Great defender (used his feet!!! rather than reaching in), great rebounder, won us the first National Championship with his defense on Elton Brand, but never, ever, scored twenty points in a game in high school, college or his ten years in the NBA.

It's hard to criticize a freshman for mistakes, but when the coach mentions issues with the family on more than one occasion, and the player seems to be disinterested the last half of the season, all that comes to mind is he no longer wanted to be here, nor did he fit here, so this was not...

Did you miss the recent discussions here about how wrong so many things are in college sports today? Sure, some people get their self esteem from the success of their teams, but I sense the majority here want a level playing field, see players develop over a few years, and have success based on...

They made UConn an example Monday night. Don't even think about trying to win #7 was the message!

The "site can't be reached".

"Site can't be reached" notice pops up.

KW, SN, RB proved speed and quickness can be as important or moreso in the right player. Look what freshman Nigel James was able to do this year and what SB and RB did to the twin 6'5" Kentucky guards in the 2014 FF.

I'm going to watch it again today but know I heard at least two remarks by Raftery and (I think) Eagle at the end about the no call on the travel by (Roddy?) when he shuffled his feet, took three steps and fell. And Raftery called it nickel dime when Breeding called Demary for a foul when...

Please share the evidence of UConn "stealing" the 2011 and 2014 Championships.

Welcome Johnny. Make WMass proud! We lived in West Springfield from 1990 to 2011. Great town and close enough that we never missed a home game in football or basketball.

For those who missed the Barkley, Kellogg, Pearl and Smith picks the other night, they were very interesting. B, K and P all picked Michigan but they did a lot of careful wording...like hedging their comments because UConn has made them look so bad so many times. Kenny Smith, though, was...

I recall lots of excitement here last year about Watts but his stat line this year turned out to be nothing special. Good for us.

Well, I heard Chief was there as well, in the urinal car, and was privy to the entire conversation....so to speak.

I'll give you 99, raise you 04, and take 26 as the payoff!

Depends on what "doing the scout' means. Simply charting what the opponent does, and what works against it, or also preparing the game plan? As to the game plan, Luke stayed to win another NC and I don't see Dan Hurley risking a $500,000 bonus on the newest, least experienced staff member.
