Saw many baseball players in the 60's, 70's & 80's.....some of my favorites were Brooks Robinson, Mickey Mantle, Frank Robinson, Cal Ripken, Eddie Murray, Mike Schmidt, Pete Rose, Steve Carlton and Boog Powell

Dom Amore of the Hartford Courant interviewed Scott Burrell recently about the MJ documentary "The Last Dance" and in the article Burrell said although there's a lot of the Jordan influence in his coaching style at Southern (SCSU, where Burrell now coaches), "you have to tone it down with...

Tamika did have back issues, but she also suffered from thoracic outlet syndrome, resulting in severe pain in her arm and shoulder. I remember they considered surgery on the blood vessel in her neck, but don't think she ever had it, at least not while at UConn. She missed a number of games and...

Yes, please!?

After hearing all of your meaningful stories and as a daughter, sister and aunt of vets and active-duty personnel serving from WWI-present, I share the following: "Mansions of the Lord" performed by the Cadet Glee Club of West Point FYI -- I posted two separate videos, but YouTube only shows...

I understand your frustration. We've had season tix for women for 25 years (men almost as long, as well as football and men's and women's soccer). We are NOT wealthy, but UConn athletics is our primary form of entertainment. We rarely take vacations other than to visit family (scattered around...

I noticed that too. Looks like about 10 seconds was edited out just as she was talking about the handshake. Don't think it was a glitch -- didn't happen any other time.

Well said!

We needed one more ticket, so last Wednesday we ordered online through Ticketmaster and received it Monday via USPS. This confirms that the problem was most likely with those who pre-ordered.

I'm pretty sure that's her sister Rachel in the tan sweater. That's her husband (Steve Rushin) in the green jacket.

UPDATE Noon 2/27/2019 - Albany Regional Tickets arrived via UPS this morning. IMO, ticket issues may be related to pre-sale October tickets. Hope everyone else having problems getting their tickets get them resolved.

We ordered four tickets in October for the Albany Regional. As of today (2/25) no tickets had been received. I accessed the receipt on Ticketmaster and found a link to a "Live Chat". I clicked on it and a representative asked how he/she could help. I told him we had ordered tickets in October...

My thoughts exactly, but you said it so much better. Both are great players and people -- so glad they chose UConn!

Oh, Ok. Makes sense. Thanks for clarifying, KnightBridge and UCMiami! :)

I find it really odd that no one, not even ND fans, are able to access Muffett's presser. Doesn't the NCAA require that they be posted publicly? Was something said that shouldn't have been? Something doesn't seem right about this ...

I know someone asked yesterday, but I didn't see a response. (My apologies if there was one and I missed it.) I also checked McGraw's Bench, where someone asked and there was no response there either. The coaches are required to do post-game pressers, aren't they? I'm interested in hearing what...

You didn't answer UConn Cat's question: Why post multiple pics of the same recruit?

And why so many? Why would any fan want to see multiple pics and tweets of a recruit wearing a rival's jersey? I think most ND fans would tell you they would not want to see pics of Boston, Fudd, Bueckers or any other prized recruits wearing a UConn jersey, and I wouldn't blame them. It's beyond...

I agree -- if UConn pics were posted on the ND or Tennessee boards the poster would be run out of Dodge.

Coconut from UConn Dairy Bar. It's awesome! (Really good with a little bit of hot fudge and crushed almonds.)

I hope so too. She seems like a great kid. Love her family too. :-)

Although the injuries themselves weren't season-ending, they limited practice time, especially for Crystal and Lou during the second half of the season and during the tournament. This is what I think was so concerning -- they were unable to practice with the team. FYI, I was at the open practice...

Willtalk, I respectfully disagree with your bolded statements. I never felt she wasn't a "UConn type of player". She seemed to fit in well with this team. I attended all the home games and some away games, and she always seemed happy. At the open practice this year she practiced hard and...

Yeah, definitely looks like she's headed to ND. Was holding out hope that UConn was still in the mix, but looks like it's not to be. Still love this UConn team and looking forward to seeing Christyn and Olivia this fall! Go Huskies!

Thanks for responding. I see you're in Rochester. We live in Coventry, CT -- so we'll have to figure out a way to get them to you in time. Just let us know when things have been solidified on your end. Thanks!

We have four tickets for the Albany regional, but unfortunately my husband's uncle passed away and we'll be in Delaware until Sunday. If you're interested in four tickets for Saturday's games, we're offering them at face value ($27.50 each - lower level).

I could see Colorado St. offering and Becky accepting. I think it would be a great way for her to see if she can be successful as the head coach of a men's team. What better place that at her alma mater, where she is revered?

Regardless: it would be a fascinating hire....and CSU would get more sizzle for daring to do that than...well ,,,,forever.

I rarely post, but have read the Boneyard for many years (started back when it was Rivals), and loved to see what Olde Coach had to say not only about the UConn women but about anything he chose to talk about. So knowledgeable and a seemed like a real gentleman. I really miss his posts...

Topsail, I was going to mention Dog Lane too -- I love their ginger lemonade. And the Dairy Bar ice cream is the best. They used to offer my favorite (coconut) only in the summer, but since the president mentioned it's her favorite I see it's on the menu year-round. :-) I've heard about Blaze...
