    Retro Jerseys

    Hi Yarders! I missed you! Wanted to let you know that the UCONN BOOKSTORE ordered retro jerseys for Ray & Rip. Saw Ray's earlier & it looks GREAT! Trying to get these guys to come in the store to do autographs as well. Will keep you posted!

    Please read, good people (with edits)

    I happen to know that players DO read this board. We should always remember that they are young adults & learning. They have a way to go before they reach the Dali Lamas on the Boneyard cite. Thanks for the reminder, Nan!

    UConn Alumni All-Star Game 8/12 (Mohegan Sun)

    I wondered, with KO coaching the under 19 USA players, if this was gonna happen. So glad that it IS! Thanks for posting Marat. Do we know who is gonna be there? Would love to see Kemba, Bazz & Ray!

    Rip visiting Storrs

    LOVED the epic Rip/Ray battles in the NBA. Miss those!

    That's how much I trust you guys.

    Sorry, Good. Maybe 'Yarders thought that it would be unfair to share that information before Morgan did!

    UConn Co-op Book Store Could Be Replaced By National Corporation

    Yes. UCONN's board of trustees met today & the word is now official. B&N representatives are coming tomorrow to speak to Co-op staff. Staff has been promised employment at current pay, but hours & benefits have not been guaranteed.

    OT: How did you choose your Boneyard username?

    LOL! Perhaps...I was an adopted child!

    OT: How did you choose your Boneyard username?

    Joobie is a nickname one of my co-workers bestowed upon me (& stuck) many years ago. The former players in my avatar personify what is best about UCONN basketball (& Bazz is also one of my favorite people on the planet).

    ot- Boeheim - we boke the rules, but didn't cheat

    I LOVE that Shazazz Napier has twice as many championship rings than Boeheim!!

    Donyell to CCSU

    Congrats, Donyell! My only piece of advice is that you discourage your players from returning books at the end of the semester that are still in their original packaging!

    A Quick Look at Oregon State Losses with Thoughts

    I watched the first half of the Baylor/OSU game. My impression is that if we defend the 3 consistently, we will be FINE! UCONN by 15.

    Happy 17th Anniversary Uconn 77 Duke 74 (3/29/99)

    My entire family left me alone to watch the game by myself. Prolly a good thing....I was sobbing at the end!

    More Jeff Adrien news/non-news, you be the judge

    This is all so sad. I was a big fan of Jeff's when he played for UCONN. He was one of the "blue collar" guys who worked hard & could always be counted on to clean the glass or hustle for the loose balls. It sounds like a few screws have come loose, eventhough I agree with the premise that...

    Devils advocate.

    WHAT?!?!? The only bad thing about a 4th NC in a row is if it causes Geno's retirement. A 4th in a row makes history & beats John Wooden's record of 10. I would love to see this class of exceptional young women do something that's never been done before. Looking forward to that!

    OT: Favorite writers??

    I read contemporary fiction. My favorites are: John Irving (Owen Meany is my favorite book of all time) Jodi Picoult (for her endings which never fail to blow me away-Leaving Time was the best yet) Joyce Carol Oates (her prose is amazing) Stephen King (opening his books is like Christmas every...

    Picture, with your 3rd eye, the winning of an 11th National Championship. If you believe it, we can do it!

    UMass fires women's head coach...Storrs interest?

    Anyone else worried about Jemelle's job? I often wonder, with the seasons they've had, how long she'll keep it.

    UConn Co-op Book Store Could Be Replaced By National Corporation

    We have a sales rep who works for Pearson Education, one of the biggest sellers of college textbooks in the country. He told us that a professor, teaching at a university who had a store run by B&N, called Pearson to complain that the book he was told would cost his students $104 was being...

    Missing Terrence Samual

    There are a definitive number of scholarships available. If TSam stayed there may not have been a schollie for Miller...that was all I was trying to say. Sorry you found it boring!

    The Walking Dead Season 6

    Last night's episode? Anyone? Did anyone else believe when Rick told the group that he was bringing the Saviors Gregory's head that it was gonna be anything other than the real thing? What was your reaction to "this is how we eat now"? Anyone else bothered by the total lack of common sense...

    Thank you Omar and Phil!

    Nnamdi has a 4.0 GPA & is going to medical school in the Fall. That will help the APR fer sure. I feel awful that Phil didn't have family there to celebrate Senior day with him. He's a great guy...soft spoken & thoughtful. Glad that the team stepped up in his family's absence. Omar has...

    Senior Day Starters

    There was the year (& I'm sorry, I can't remember what year it actually was) that JC refused to start Ruslan Inyatkin. I only remember coz it really pissed me off!

    We were so optimistic

    Then maybe what we need is a different "big man" coach. Bigs may not be Glen Miller's forte. How 'bout Donyell Marshall?
  34. Joobie

    We were so optimistic

    I wanna know whazzup with Phil! He STARTED NCAA games for us & now he's riding the bench & gets zero minutes. I thought in the games he played when AB was out, he did pretty well. The man is a foul magnet, but usually plays within himself & has shown flashes of talent.

    Kemba=Clutch

    Great article on Kemba's big moments at the end of games. It really illustrates what UCONN fans have known all along; he has the heart of a champion! http://www.nba.com/hornets/latest-buzz-essence-clutch
