I strongly urge Boneyarders to subscribe to his Youtube channel. He does excellent UConn videos, many with new information. He also does some videos on WCBB in general. His videos are a starting point for meaningful discussions.
Just recently heard this (mostly) acapella version of Black Velvet. Really liked it. Never realized the song was a tribute to Elvis. ( turn captions on )
Yeah, that was me, on a thread entitled "Young people sing old songs." Maybe we can do that again this summer. There are so many excellent young performers on Youtube. I am envious.
So, I believe Diana Taurasi played on Olympic Team the year she graduated, 2004. There must be others.

Kai Winding was the first to record the Jerry Ragavoy-penned "Time Is on My Side" in 1963. A year later, it was covered by Irma Thomas, the "Soul Queen of New Orleans" as the B-side of "Anyone Who Knows What Love Is (Will Understand)." Shortly afterward, the Rolling Stones cut it, borrowing many...

I believe the numbers are: one grad student, 1 red shirt Soph, 3 true Sophs, 3 new freshmen, and 5 players of questionable health.

This song is dedicated to our newest Husky.
This song is about the end of a relationship, but it’s really applicable to life in general. The things in life that are hard to go through actually forge us in fire. They help us to become stronger moving forward. (Note the Basket makes a cameo...

Love, love, love the music threads. Always consider them a challenge.
This motivational pop song reminds us that it’s never too late to shine. Even if you’re feeling worn down by life, there is brilliance inside of you just waiting to burst forth.
I really, really like this guy's UConn recap videos. If you agree, I highly recommend subscribing to his Youtube account. I started a new thread because I didn't want this video "lost" in the shuffle. Doesn't dwell on the "ill-timed" call. Some comments about UConn's future. Well worth the watch.
