    Our best starting 5 (A Game) - No bench

    This is one of the easier versions of this thread as no championships are involved. Kemba - not a better PG to be had Ray - same for SG Caron - this is the closest call with Rip/Rudy Donyell - second closest with Cliffy Emeka - the odd roster where Emeka could easily be replaced by any number...

    OT: 3 Club Golf Tourney--what are you bringing?

    Woods are a waste. Even on a Par 5 and all Par 4s under 350 yds you are never more than 2 long irons from the green. Distance isn't the issue, it's carry over hazards and out of the rough until you get within 150. Then you need at least 2 options to get close enough to chip/putt. Putters...

    Best UConn Center of All Time?

    Okafor was the better defender, rebounder and had the best season and is the best overall center. Sanogo was the better offensive player over Clingan, but Clingan was more efficient offensively, but I think that is due to '24 having better guards. Thabeet shows better here than expected. But...

    AAC is rebranding....

    They should shorten it to Conference USA.

    Rothstein at Practice Today 7/15

    Reed is going to be a beast and the key to any success we might aspire to have. He will be counted on to score, rebound, and defend while staying on the floor. It's really a big ask but from what I've seen he has been incredibly efficient playing roughly 20 minutes a game. Fouls were the...

    Nantucket

    Like any seasonal playground for the rich. Figure out your housing, ask what other people do. It's also a small enough place that the people you are talking to, know people who will rent to teachers. Ask if you'll need to leave during the summer. Should be plenty of housesitting/off-season...

    Gold Cup

    No elite keeper (Turner is the best of a mediocre, but Poch will pick whomever is playing for the friendlies and that person will have the inside track) Richards is OK, not great. Ream is old and slow. No one has stepped up to grab these spots and it doesn't appear anyone will. Clearly the...

    Our scheduling philosophy going forward as an independent

    2 gimmes, 5 G5, 5 P4. 6 or 7 home games a year, if 6 then the 7th road game should be a big time payday road game. Say and doing in this environment are different things. The P4 are really the P2, and they have a lot more options for NC scheduling now since the death of the P12 and bloated...

    Massively Off Topic - Bidets

    Ok, all juvenile potty humor aside. Once you've tried these you will think not having one is dirty and gross. Pros: 1. You're actually clean as opposed to not actually clean. You can decide how important that is to you. 2. Assuming you don't want to spend 4k on a fancy Toto all in one...

    Gold Cup

    It really was a masterful PK performance by Freese. Sniffing out the Panenka attempt really showed how well he was reading the shooters. Legit could have saved 5 of the 6. Problem with considering Freese as a potential #1 next year is the other 270 minutes he played in this tournament which...

    Mora’s tweet on tampering happening right now

    INAL, but this case sounds pretty weak. Is Miami not allowed to talk to professors, administrators, janitors, ordinary students about employment opportunities? Unless there is some contractual language on this, seems W is howling at the moon. The endgame here is pretty clear. The SEC and B1G...

    How many wins would it take for Connecticut to be in the CFP discussion?

    I don't think independents are considered for the G5 spot. We would fall under the Notre Dame rule. We'd need to be well within the top 10. Probably no lower than 7th. They would do everything in their power to pick someone else. We'd need to go 12-0 and beat one of the other schools in...

    To piggyback on a previous thread- best atmosphere in sports

    Cases can be made depending on what time period your looking at but it's not debatable that the Penn State Whiteout night game is #1.
