    2026 UConn Football Commit - Shmar Akande (West Park, Florida)

    These are great, the portal matters more. Half these HS recruits will probably never start a game for UConn. If they do, that's also great but it's a new world order.

    Mullins questions

    He's never faced this level of competition. He'll be fine. You can see the talent. The only way he fails is if he thinks he's good enough now.

    UConn 2026 Outbound Portal Transfers (*No transfer speculation until announced/posted*)

    We were all looking for a 10th win, but playing allows Candle to evaluate and players who maybe didn't play a lot or will play next season some run.

    Texas Post Game Thread

    Not a great backcourt game by anyone but the offense was a lot better in the 1st half with Silas getting the majority of the minutes than it was in the 2nd with Smith getting the majority. That matters, too. For me, there were a lot of what we used to call empty possessions especially in the...

    Evan Miya - Player evaluation graph

    A healthy Reed is several ticks to the right. I'm assuming that is Ball and Stewart on the low end of the defensive scale?

    Lets talk about....fouls

    This made be difficult to understand. We have certain players who can't defend well without fouling. When those players are guards, they put extra pressure on our centers who can't well without fouling. Reed has improved noticeably on this front but when he is up against a larger front line...

    Coach Candle Introductory Press Conference 12/8/25 @1230. Streamed live on UConn+

    You think so? My reaction was I thought half a million average was low but I wasn't sure if that was just the "official" state salary not including the usual booster fed extras that Coaches get. Didn't we pay RE2.0 and Mora more than that?

    Florida Post Game Thread

    Sometimes I wonder if people here actually watch the game. 1. Huge game by Reid, especially if he'd not 100%. It was 3 vs. 1 on the backboard. We will need to improve rebounding though Florida is a beast on the offense glass. Not likely to see a better rebounding team this year. Reibe is a...

    CFP Rankings

    People keep thinking this has anything to do with football. The CFP is owned by the conferences. The SEC and B1G call the shots. The ACC and B12 go along for favored status in exchange for their votes. The G5 go along to keep the P4 from leaving and forming their own division. They don't...

    #14 UConn v. Merrimack Warriors (Friday 12/5/25 @7p @Lawler Rink & Saturday 12/6/25 @4p @Toscano Family Ice Forum. Both games on ESPN+

    Report him to the venue, they will take care of him quickly if he's annoying home fans. It would take about 3 before he's banned.

    UConn is going Bowling > Wasabi Fenway Bowl v. Army (Saturday 12/27/25 @2:15 on ESPN)

    If you were told Fenway could be like Boise's Potato Bowl, providing an annual showcase pitting UConn against name programs until such time as we are attractive to larger games, you'd sign up, right? UConn poaching a P4 bowl slot is a good thing. Playing Sun Belt or other whoday teams is a...

    OT: Notre Dame declines bowl bid

    No one outside the top 5 is a serious contender. Never were under the old system, aren't now. 6-10 might win a quarterfinal, or make a semifinal, none are winning 3 top 10 games in a row, especially when those game aren't using the gimmick auto-byes from last season. Anyone really think Bama...

    UConn is going Bowling > Wasabi Fenway Bowl v. Army (Saturday 12/27/25 @2:15 on ESPN)

    Yup, not like we've been to so many. Also, the P4 teams go to the same bowls over and over. Hazard that comes with winning so much. A week ago we were debating which G5 opponent we were going to play in Alabama, Conway, SC, or Boca Raton. Army at Fenway is leaps beyond Troy or Kenwsaw State...

    UConn is going Bowling > Wasabi Fenway Bowl v. Army (Saturday 12/27/25 @2:15 on ESPN)

    The biggest prize is the media saying "10 won UConn" for rhe next 8 months. Even the CFB doesn't care who you beat to get there, except in certain circumstances.
