This is a joke right?

I said the same thing about Reed last season. Others disagreed. I guess we'll never know.

Maybe not, but most of our titles didn't have studs at every position. It's not possible to watch the last part of the season and not notice that Ross leveled up, especially his shooting. During the NCAA, not once did I think him shooting it was a bad idea. He's that much better than a year...

The US problem is the massive variance in both performances and results. In the past, we could hang and occasionally get a result against all but the absolute top tier sides. We can also lose or drop points against anyone inside the top 40 and regularly again sides in the top 30, which is...

I wouldn't say no problem. NBA hype and Duke heroics aside. A healthy Ball was likely going our best offensive player. Despite his injury affected shooting percentage, you saw him get better all season both in ball handling, defense, and getting inside. There was a certain redundancy with...

Solo's red shirt benefits the freshmen and cleans up the rotation. There is room for a backup pass first defensive PG as the 9th spot. Obviously need another center. Without Ball we will need more consistency night in, night out from Demery and Mullins. No idea what we should expect from...

Andrew is also Dan's emotional support animal. Keeps him calm (er).

Tell me who sits if everyone plays well and is healthy? Ain't Demery, Mullins and Ross is locked into 20 or so a game based on results so it's either Khamenia (who didn't come here to play 15 a game), or Ball (due to Mullins sliding over) who isn't staying if he's penciled in for less than 25...

Only because Duke fans can regularly schedule their UNC hatefest in advance. UConn just shows up out of nowhere and steals their lunch.

The math is the math. At best he, Ross, Mullins, and Khamenia average 20 minutes each at the 3/4, and Mullins spells Ball at the 2 for 10 minutes a game. Anymore and either Ross or Khamenia is sitting. I don't think either is here to sit behind a freshman.

I have a feeling that absent injury, foul trouble, off nights, there won't be much of a rotation. Demery (30), (TBD or County) (10), (County or Ball) (spot) - Depending on the transfer, County can earn the backup spot. Ball (30), Mullins (10), County (spot) - If Ball is pulling spot PG duty...

He can start for any other Big East team. He would have had trouble cracking 10 min/game for a title focused UConn team, especially given Ross' improvement while he was injured and high profile recruits/transfers coming in and Mullins returning.

The federal government could easily cover the additional cost in support of a nation's bid to host. Not this government thought. See Giuliani, Andrew.

There is no excuse not advancing. With 48 teams every group has what should be a free win. 8/12 3rd place teams also advance to the round of 32. Absent some weird upsets, if you win your group you most likely get a cupcake in the first knock out game. Truth is the US (16) should expect to...

As we should be. Conference and in-state rivalries are wonderful things. But playing over and over again in the biggest games in the history of the sport is the definition of a rival. Is BC a MBB rivalry, no we beat them 20 plus times in a row. Any rivalry is based on CR though FB and their...
