    Auriemma eyes dominant frontcourt in UConn’s quest for 12th title

    I have looked at maybe half the kids in the portal. I don't see a quality big that would help us. Maybe she is in the other half. Do you know of one?

    Does UConn Need a Low-Post "Banger"?

    I have been thinking for some time, since we lost to Mississippi State in 2017, that we need a Tina Charles type center. She rebounded and scored really well. Had we had a center like her, we'd have 3 or 4 more championships. If Boston had come to Uconn we would have won each of her three years.

    Geno's Biggest Coaching Mistake?

    Here's my two cents and it is probably not even worth that much. In the 2014 December game versus Stanford which we lost by 2 in overtime Geno started Kiah Stokes. That was the mistake and I even thought so at the time at the start of the game. He should have started and played Morgan Tuck...

    Next year

    This Maryland game was very hard to watch. Hurley has done a good job getting us this far. It's obvious he has a lot more work to do.

    AEH

    I think it is often the case that when players leave the real reason is glossed over. I have no proof of that but it is my opinion.

    AEH

    I think this is over analyzed. I believe AEH left because she was getting very few minutes. I believe she got only a few minutes because the other players were more talented than her.

    Asking for per-40 stat sheet feedback

    I sent you a private message about errors in the spreadsheet but it looks like you haven't read it yet. Please check it out.

    Where's the eyes? Corrected per-40 spreadsheet available.

    In addition there are empty cells in rows 23 and 24 and something seems really wrong with that big IF statement you have in row 25. I am not sure if the problem is your spreadsheet or the program I am using, Libre Office. Please let me know.

    The cell with red text and a pink background is that way be cause of "conditional formatting". Delete that CF and it will appear as the others.

    Anyone Ever Attend a UConn BB True Road Game

    I have gone to BB and FB at SMU in Dallas. Ditto to Baylor in Waco, Texas and women's BB at UT Austin. I went to the football game at Baylor in Waco with my high school aged son. Before agreeing to go he was reluctant. He said there's going to be a fight. No, I said, that only happens in...

    Does UConn or South Carolina have more at stake on Big Monday?

    How have we had that issue with Tennessee. We beat them the first time we played them.

    OT: If you lived on campus, where did you live?

    1961-1964 Webster House when it was like a fraternity without all the mickey mouse stuff. In a 16 week semester we had 12 parties. This one we played records, the next we had a band and it alternated like that. We went off campus for homecoming, Winter Weekend and Spring Weekend.

    Game Replay: UConn vs. SCSU

    I watched parts of both the men's and women's games and every few minutes, in both games, the Uconn Husky logo came up on the screen and stayed for a minute or two then the normal video came back on. Sound came through the whole time. What gives? This was in Chrome in both regular and...

    Warlick's time coming to a close?

    Their players are standing around and doing a lot of 1 on 1? As of today they have 434 assists on 746 made baskets. So, 58% of their baskets are assisted. Does not sound like 1 on 1 BB to me. We are 568 on 872 or 66%.

    Adam Silver changes stance on age-limit rule

    Coach K is 70 years old. He cannot coach much longer.

    Adam Silver changes stance on age-limit rule

    I never really liked the one and done thing. For those who went to Uconn, Andree Drummond being the only one and done and Rudy gay being a two and done, I never developed a connection with them like I did with Napier, Boatright, Walker, Toby Kimball, Wes Bialosuknia and Art Quimby, among quite...

    Top States Producing College All-American's

    I don't get the math. 15 AA's per season times 23 seasons equals 345. Minus 12 foreign players leaves 333. So where does your total of 201 AA USA players come from?

    How Unfortunate for Jamelle Elliot

    I am having trouble divining the problem here. Cincy's attendance is low, and they will be playing in HS gym that will accommodate their normal crowds and perhaps even have more noise for the team. All for one year while the normal stadium is refurbished, or whatever. What, exactly, is the...

    Gabby Makes All Tournament Team

    I have no idea how Victoria Vivians makes the all tournament team. She shot 6-18 against us and fouled out in OT. Against SC she was 4-16 with five turnovers. Hardly an all tournament performance.

    opinion from a new-be

    I agree fully. MS was not spent and it was definitely too much Wilson. I was at the game and it was an upset because we were favored by 21 but as I was watching it, it didn't seem like an upset. MS was really good and their defense made us play the way they wanted us to. The biggest upset in...

    What did Miss State do?

    Regarding constructive criticism of our players in this game, two points: (1) If we had scored three more points and won the game we would not be hearing any of it on this board. (2) It's fine to say that so and so should have done or not done this or that but the time is now passed and what...

    Let Players Decide Games, Period

    I fully agree she should have been called for a technical. I remember that play quite well.

    Let Players Decide Games, Period

    "Let the players decide the game" is often heard after the losing coach complains about a last minute call that cost him the game. What they are really saying, in my opinion, is "Don't call any violations on us as the game is winding down." Games are won/lost by the good things players do...

    What did Miss State do?

    There is an awful lot of analysis here and some of it hits the mark. The idea that we lost the game rather than MS won it is way off. They played well, especially their defense and to that I credit half the reason we lost. The other reason is that we had no big to match up with their 6-7 and...

    What improvement would you like to see from the returning Huskies ?

    I would like to see Gabby extend her range and develop a three point shot, similar in the way that Kelly Faris did for her senior season.
