    Painter Interview

    He’s literally talking right now in the press conference about how good we were.

    Purdue Post Game Thread

    Feels great to be a (very small) part of such a championship program. Great team performance - Tristan and Stephon were amazing but great contributions from almost everyone. Cam, Alex, Donovan, Hassan and even Samson (in the 3 minutes he was able to stay on the court) all did more than what was...

    Alabama Post Game Thread

    Great team effort. Double digit points from all starters and rebounds spread pretty evenly as well. Only 4 TOs? That’s amazing.

    Retirement

    Congrats to you on a big milestone. I’ve been retired for two years now at a relatively young age and agree with a lot of the wisdom shared above. One thing I’d add is that you’ll need to figure out the balance between “enjoying” retirement (ie travel, adventure, mid life crisis toys, etc) and...

    UConn in the NFL

    Ryan Van Demark is playing meaningful minutes for the Bills right now. From what my amateur eye can see, he’s done pretty well.

    Negativity and the best fans in the country

    Like all, so disappointed in the performance and result from Saturday. That said, I'll note that being on the chat does not make the coping any better and, to me, makes it multiple times worse. When the team isn't doing well, chat is unreadable if you're trying to maintain any sort of optimism...

    UConn @ Georgia State Panthers - Saturday 9/9/23 @Center Parc Stadium @7p on ESPN+

    G State looks like they have a pretty balanced attack including a QB who can run. Our LB corps will really need to step up here.

    New Staff Member, John Pagano

    This seems like unreservedly good news. Great resume, NFL connections up the wazoo and knows D backwards and forwards. Gets to work with Jackson Mitchell this year and teach him how to be the next Khalil Mack.

    OT: BlueSky?

    So I decided a few weeks ago to leave Twitter / “X” and I’ve been checking out other platforms. BlueSky seems to be the closest thing to what Twitter used to be but it doesn’t have much, if any, sports content. Uconn has an official account but hasn’t posted anything and there is very little...

    New! Season Preview Pod with Phil Steele

    Fun interview to hear - thanks for doing and posting.

    Jim Mora aims to win national championship as UConn football coach. He's serious: 'Have to believe that' (Mike Anthony)

    Great article and insight into HCJM’s thought process. Seems like we have the inside track on keeping him for the medium term even if he sees dramatic success (fingers crossed).

    I had a dream last night that Uconn won it all

    Could only listen to the game from overseas but that didn’t impact my enjoyment of this run one bit. Congrats to the Huskies and all of us!

    Springs vs Mandeldove

    This - all our bigs had fouled out by the end (I think) and Dove still wasn’t put into the game. Always confused me.

    International streaming options

    Question for other internationally based UConn fans. I’m living internationally again (Australia) and in the past, I used a friends’ Slingbox to watch games (both football and basketball) via his cable. Unfortunately Slingbox just shut down their servers for good last week so I’m looking for...

    ESPN- UConn matters

    This nugget was in there too: After Saturday's outright win over Liberty, UConn is now 9-2 against the spread on the season. It's the most covers in a Huskies season since 2010, and no other team in the country has more covers this season.

    FIU Replay

    Thanks so much @Storrs South and @huskymedic. Despite the incredibly poor production value, it was great to see the whole game instead of just the highlights and it showed me a lot more than what I could get from the box score alone (or from being in the Chat room during the game - yuck). In...

    Week 6 - Other Games Thread

    Houston has come back to score 26 points in the fourth quarter to take a one point lead over Memphis. They had a successful onside kick and just stopped Memphis with a sack to finish the game. Crazy finish.

    Justin Joly - our new weapon

    Back to Joly…great to see we have someone who can 1) get open 2) in the middle of the field and 3) make a catch. He also did a great job blocking on one of Huston’s bigger runs to the left. Now that he’s on film though I guarantee other teams will key on that slant route more so I hope we...

    want to jump into bbq smoking

    Just started smoking meats two months ago here in Australia. Bought a Louisiana Grill from Costco with the competition blend pellets and have done two pulled porks, a lamb roast and several racks of ribs along with more “normal” bbq stuff like sausages, steaks, etc. For smoking, the electric...

    Thank you seniors

    Whaley has been my favorite Husky over the past decade. To see his perseverance, effort, development and contributions over time (especially where he started) has been amazing. Others have had more points, talent and wins but he took what he had and maximized it over time - massive respect...

    Villanova Post Game Thread

    While you can’t expect to make them all, we missed five free throws (four by Sanogo) which really hurt us. Missing the front end of a one and one late in the game was even worse. That plus the horrible charge call at the end of the first half could easily have been the difference. Of course...

    Watching UCONN While at Sea

    Beware that wifi while on a cruise ship likely isn’t remotely good enough to stream anything of note. I was on a Celebrity Cruise to Alaska and while we paid for the wifi package, it was barely good enough for emails, etc. If at all possible, you’ll want to explore an option to download the...

    Random thoughts - feel free to discuss any

    Random thought to add: Did anyone else notice after Cole took the charge that all five Huskies on the floor just hugged each other in a mass embrace? Anyone else get goosebumps from seeing that plus the crowd going berserk? Just an amazing moment of “team”.

    Highlights v. Villanova

    So much more fun when you know the result. Appreciate the late night effort!

    Nova Post Game Thread

    Just huge shots by Polley and then Cole was able to close both on the offensive and defensive ends. For a game with very few fouls called, the refs played too large of a role but overall an amazing game.

    Stream in France

    I vouch for this living in Australia. A VPN can let you get around the international restrictions from youtubeTV or other streaming services. If you’re there temporarily though, this might not be a viable solution. Personally, I use Slingbox to access a friends cable box so I can watch there...

    Highlights v. Xavier

    Second half “highlights” really show how important RJ was to keeping us ahead here. So many clutch drives / baskets to stop Xavier runs. That and Whaley on the defensive end really kept our heads above water.

    A pat on the back for Gaffney

    Gaffney being Gaffney (just like Polley and so many others) he will likely have many more ups and downs through the season. It’s great to see him do well in an important piece of a must-win game. Hopefully he can figure out what it takes to bring that same skill and energy in the future to be a...
