Historic two games for Adama. 28 and 13 in game one. Followed by 24 and 8 in game 2. That’s 52 and 21. For perspective: Most points in first and second rounds of NCAA Tournament in @UConnMBB history: Caron Butler (2001-02) - 55 Richard Hamilton (1997-98) - 53 Adama Sanogo (2022-23) - 52...

Hurley, Cronin, Mussleman are three of the most wound-up-too-tight guys in the business. And Jamie Dixon certainly qualifies, unless Few wins, who might be the most relaxed coach ever to walk the sideline.

Adama Sanogo deserves his own thread after last night’s all time performance. This just posted on Twitter courtesy of tcf15: Adama finished with 28 points on 13-17 shooting and 13 rebounds, 6 on the offensive end. In 25 minutes. Simply one of the greatest tournament games by a Husky or...

In a game the team needed to win, the best player came up huge. 26 points and 9 rebounds while limiting kalkbrenner to 9 points. Down two midway through the second half Sanogo goes on a 8-0 run that ends with him drawing kalkbrenners third foul and sending him to the bench. It allowed Hurley...

I’ll be that guy …. How you gonna blame the kid who had 15 points and 13 rebounds? Adama is a warrior. Hurley’s offensive plan is almost solely reliant on getting the ball to sanogo in the post. You, me and everyone knows this. So, Yes he missed a bunch of shots around the rim last night but...

Who wins five-on-five of Jalen Adams, Rodney Purvis, Vance Jackson, Kenton Facey, Amida Brimah vs. Al Gilbert, Daniel Hamilton, Terry Larrier, Diarra and Zach Brown? OK. there's a bit of stretch to imagine that Brown's life didn't derail and everyone is healthy. And on its face, the Adams team...

Not sure where to put this so here it goes: UConn lax defeats No. 6 Virginia Tech 8-5 today and goes 3-0 on it's Florida trip. Program is definitely on the upswing and here's hoping it has a move to D1 in the near future.

Just had a conversation with the coach/director of my kid's club lacrosse program over lunch. He is also head coach at one of the high school team's in the state. We were talking about opportunities for playing after high school and I mentioned it would be good if UConn went up to DI to keep...

A fun read from salon.com Huskies gets mentioned for wins in the 1999 final and semis in 2004. My vote would be the obvious ... the '99 championship game when "we shocked the world!"...

I thought this was a telling quote from Ryan after the game. My guess is he's talking Purvis and Hamilton. “Guys have to step up and not feel sorry for themselves,” Boatright said after he was suffocated by Temple in an awful second half for the Huskies. “Know that you're a good player and...

It's on the home page of espn.com. At the moment, "No" is leading 52 percent to 48 percent. Thought this might be fodder the conspiracy theorists among us.

but we need UConn to be good. Here's the full quote: "We know conference realignment may not be over, but the system has stabilized and we all recognize it. I believe we are all committed now to making The American the best conference it can be for the membership. … It's important to us that...

Let's go Connecticut

And if UConn wins two of them I win $5. I made a post last march with the over under being 20 wins for this year's team. The thread died. Too much other stuff going on. I was bummed after tonight's loss but thinking about this made me feel better. About the team. About my faith in the team...

Today I made a $5 bet with a guy I work with that UConn would win more games next year than this year. Given all the uncertainty around the program at the moment, I'm still confident the team can win 21 games next year. I was just wondering what the board thinks. Am I drunk on the kool-aid? Or...

Down 41-26 to Rutgers at home with under 12 to go. It doesn't get easier for them either. In the next two weeks they have Marquette, Syracuse, Louisville and Georgetown.

Anyone have a pair they are looking to unload? Please drop me a message.
