The McDonough” Hamilton”, Cardiac Kemba and Jim Nantz’s “For the championship…”

Lindsey Hunter, 1993 NIT, dude was incredible.

Pay the $100 for Storrs Central. It's worth it. Also, subscribe to my free publication...In all seriousness. I support all UConn content and all UConn businesses. Storrs Central is ambitious, and for those who like feature stories on players that is going to be the place since there are two...

I think Karaban isn’t going to return right now educated guess, 80% chance he stays in draft. He’s just too good not to be taken in the 30s.

Depends on how he shoots in workouts. NBA wants shooting and skill. Take a look at European affect out there. Sports is moving back towards skill based over athleticism. Karaban is taken in the 30s. But if his shooting is elite in workouts. He will move up. Karaban truth r sm We Gotta start...

McNeeley, who only seen maybe once on tv and wasn’t paying attention, looks like an elite modern man wing. He plays like he is designed to plug into the Spencer/castle role on the wing. I’d expect Jaylin Stewart to take karaban’s spot. Karaban returns, wow, but I think that is unlikely looking...

UConn benefits in portal era because of coaching, types of players it recruits. Most coaches are iron fist coaches. they dont know how to act when a players has options. I like NIL, I like portal. I am not sure I like those two together without any rules on movement. This is like baseball in...

Interview was stellar. I used to hate Reddick because Duke . But, when he got to nba, even though he was in Magic dude was a terrific player. Tough nosed defense and shooter. A very good analyst and honest. Hope he stays in media.

You can’t pet him until you commit.

He orders a lobster, ya know we getting it on!

Two-way players are not eligible in the postseason. Bulls would have had to sign him to the main roster. Too late.

SGA Canadian? They are gonna kill in the future. Yes. AAU is an awful developmental product.

They aint mysterious anymore. When are we going to get an American born MVP? Maybe SGA this year, but league is owned by euros/internationals. Jokic, Doncic Giannis Embiid (american now, but African) Wemby Best under 30 American players are SGA, Tatum, Anthony Edwards.

I would say, from talking with people who covered the team for about the last 45 years…Butler’s second-half performance against Providence is generally cited as the most dominant and special game a UConn player has played. Ray Allen probably second in 1995 against ucla. Btw, I think clingan’s...

It’s more important than highs school recruiting. How dumb is high school to cover? Kid visits, he has to make a dumb decision with a hat. Portal is for serious players. That is where championships are won.

You watching the rays and the masters over your wife? Dude. She gone . As far as my old lady. Good with UConn, giants, Celtics and big baseball games. If I try to watch soccer she bites my head off. Golf as well.

His dad should know the pitfalls. He probably doesn’t need the money as much either. I am sure his dad stocked some away for at least a comfortable life. I think he only goes if he is top 20.

You have to have Facebook for games. Turned into a LinkedIn as well. And 24-35 use instagram. Much easier to use if you are signed up for facebook.

There aren’t many players in nba like castle. There is Jru Holliday, Marcus Smart, Gary Payton II and who? What other guard has the ability to play this type of defense. His defense is nba ready right now, can play all guards and most wings. The only players he can’t guard are centers and big...

Most of the people in those comments don’t watch the nba. you can tell by the comments.

Goebert a hall of fame caliber center, soon to be 4-time DPOY.

Not many. If you look at current NBA centers, there are some great ones and some bums. Top tier is Embiid, Jokic, Anthony Davis. I don’t think Donovan can ever be that type of scorer. I but him in the Rudy Goebert camp. Goebert is an amazing defensive player and impacts the game incredibly...

Did we get the “he’s not ready” mantra? Lol.

I know this isn’t a great draft, but for all people who say UConn wasn’t as talented as other teams, 2 top 5 picks and likely all of the starting 5 will play in an nba game in their life. That’s rare. Last time this draft was so bad Giannis and Jokic were in it. Just ignore draft niks as far...

UK fans have found out who they are. They think they can get anyone, anytime, and that they are the best basketball program in the country, better than everyone else. The hubris is astounding. The delta between what they think they are, and what they actually are is crazy. They think...

Maybe that was 2000 in 1999. Literally, that was not the talk everyone was on duke and UConn. Wrong year for me. I would like to see an article from that time that said that duke and Michigan State were the two best teams in the tournament. State was No. 4 in the S curve.

There is no universe than anyone but UConn and Duke were top 2 teams. No one knew who mich st was

Don’t try and shut edey Down. Make him work for it an be inefficient. Clingan can’t get in foul trouble.

That wasn’t a moving screen. Doesn’t mean game wasn’t fair. Refs aren’t good, but that is a systemic problem in men’s and women’s college basketball.

Don’t understand the foul call. Robbed us of a ball in the air game on the line type shot. I don’t understand why Bueckers doesn’t touch the ball every time down the floor. Way too few touches late.

UConn has tried to tell them not to do it. But, Wash Post has its own style. I wish they would just call them Connecticut.

I am the most pro football media/former media guy in the UConn universe. But this post is so defeatist I can’t deal. It’s like going to someone’s house who beat cancer and saying “well, son, you are just gonna die anyway” Get a grip.

Who told you that? They are in absolute demand. They just have to be able to do the right things And can’t be plodding. Top two players in NBA are centers in Embiid and Jokic. Porzongis at 7-2 has taken Celtics to next level. Anthony Davis killing it in LA. Rudy Goebert anchors the Twolves...

It runs a deficit maybe marginally in the black depending on accounting. Now it’s true value is hard to measure, as is footballs and how do you measure donations and alumni/student engagement. But it isn’t like it has a ton of money. It isn’t supposed to be a moneymaker.

There reason pressure doesn’t matter is UConn is so much better than everyone they are playing. It doesn’t matter. This might be the best college team in a generation. Listen, they gotta win it, but there is only one way this team loses… A team like Alabama does a creighton and hits 15 3s.
