RIP is not in the HOF

But Ray didn’t win 2 national championships. I am not disputing who was the better player but who had the better career. Tristen went 2 for 2 for national championships. I also am not saying #34 should not be retired. I am saying #2 should be. It fits the criteria.

Your point is based on speculation. My point is based on fact. Tristen won national championships 100% of the years he played here. They had similar awards. With the Bob Cousy award I give Tristen the edge. I am not dissing Ray, just think retiring numbers should be based on time at UConn not...

Yes that was great. But that does not mean his number was retired. You could make the argument that he had the best UConn career of any player in our history

And won the Bob Cousy award as the country’s best point guard. And MVP of the final 4. And yet some people here tend to overlook all this. I say his number should be retired. Ray Allen was a great player and a tremendous pro but Tristen had a better college career

Exactly. In 2022-23 Andre, Karaban and Hawkins were great with the rotations. In 2023-24 Castle, Karaban and especially Cam were terrific. The 2024-25 team Solo and Liam were very poor with the rotations. Solo got better as the season went on but Liam never got it. Teams were focused on making...

Is Clingan on this years roster? Or anyone similar?

Thank you for saying what I was about to say. It also prevents the ball handler from getting an open jumper.

That is why you need the proper rotations. And the big guy needs to get back quickly after stopping the dribble. Not every center can be utilized this way. Lots of college teams use the high hedge. Clingan was not used in the high hedge. I am not looking for an argument. Just trying to explain...

It totally disrupts the opponents offensive continuity. Takes away the pick and roll. Causes turnovers. Must be done with correct rotations

Are you aware of the positives of the high hedge?

He was MVP of the PK 80 or whatever it was called 3 games into his career so he was darn close to dominant

They will next year

The game in 2023 was part of the Big East - Big 12 challenge. Must be the 100th time this has been explained. Now we have a home and home with them

Florida will be our toughest test but the thought of losing is not in my brain. We play 31 regular season games, 3 Big East conference tournament games and 6 NCAA tournament games. 40-0
