    OT: Slightly OT: Kalkbrenner kinda stinks

    Oregon had 7 fouls for a large portion of the second half. Creighton didn't drive or pound it down low. It was really poor offense led by a brutal Trey Alexander. You are saying to not give a second team player all big east touches? Oregon with no depth at all and one of the two guys that is...

    OT: Slightly OT: Kalkbrenner kinda stinks

    They ran nothing for him down low. Creighton was junk on offense tonight, with seemingly no plan. Oregon is like 70th on D. This should have been a pounding.

    Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - 1st Round

    Not only that but those same teams were 4 of the top 10 betting favorites to win the whole thing. So yeah, I'll trust Vegas more than anyone in gauging the difficulty of the East.

    Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - 1st Round

    Nobody is getting in anybody's way in TAMU v. Neb. What these first two days has shown: there are about 10 teams max that play any def in this tourney and Iowa St was abused on the interior in their game.

    Stetson Post Game Thread

    It's not the first time this season, but it really bothers me when Castle plays 25 seconds of great man defense, and the refs totally job him. This will be a mirror matchup vs. NW...good shooting team with a player that can go off. Castle understands the assignment. We do have to exploit our...

    There's a guy who wanted to play hero and get the one shining moment clip. Horrendous. That right there is antithetical to UConn.

    Does anyone think he's going to drag his up there and humble brag in the postgame presser?? What a great day. (And UK fans, Danny is a pipe dream...might as well put it out of your heads now).

    OT: Syracuse

    Nah we are good. It's like Col. Bleep and crew don't even realize the vultures are coming to tear that conference apart. We'll probably end up in a similar spot but we are winning chips while the whole thing implodes.

    Transfer portal and NIL

    He's got to be a legit option for us too. Dad is going to want him to go to the school that has a string of multiple 40% 3 ballers and runs an NBA offense. NIL should be less of a priority here. Didnt see him poppin' loose, but he could be a perfect piece to reload.

    Some Knew BE was going to underperform

    SJU lost to Michigan and BC in the OOC. SH lost to Rutgers, USC, Iowa, Baylor. Providence lost to Kansas St. and Oklahoma. Danny is 100% right, BE play starts in Nov. Besides a win at Wisconsin from Providence, those teams did nothing for the league and made their own bed. There wasn't even...

    Selection Show Thread

    The league lost two All-BE players and championship week broke all the wrong ways for us. I don't believe there's any conspiracy, I just think that the league as a whole need to up the OOC. We tried to this year and even our schedule turned out to be worse than what was on paper. English and...

    Agreed. Auburn is a raw deal but our 2 seed has a glaring weakness. Illinois/Big Ten overrated. Also BYU, we just can't get caught by 17 threes if that matchup happens.

    Newton's Cheerleaders?

    We get them and St. Johns got a short, bald genius gas trader in an ugly coat. They were soundly beaten on all fronts last night.

    Todays Lunardi

    Imagine Kentucky trying to guard us for 40 minutes. We could be sniffing 110 in that game. UK is fatally flawed against Purdue or UConn, they could probably play Houston tight though. It's not like they don't have the athleticism to be good defensively they just lack the culture, coaching...

    NY Post article on Hurley’s T and confrontation with Pitino friend.

    This is what I think whenever he stirs it up out there. BE fans around the league should be thankful because he's certainly bringing in eyeballs (and NCAAT dollars). Also, this league needs to establish these rivalries where every game is like a cage match like it was last night. People are...

    UConn St Johns post game press semifinal @!

    Brilliant mic work by coach. The shade at the Providence fanbase is classic Hurley. It mystifies me how a recruit could say no to him. He's such a savage.

    Saint John's Post Game Thread

    I agree. I hope that if MU wins tonight, Kolek comes back tomorrow so we can kick that one up a notch as well. Sadly it will all be for naught in 5 years or less. Enjoy it while we can I suppose.

    Saint John's Post Game Thread

    The best back court in America pulled us through tonight. We had a lot of things working against us, particularily some mystifying reffing in the middle third of the 2nd half. Obviously we had a bad rebounding game and supplemented that with some strange casual turnovers. Not our finest, but...

    Stop the slow ball standing around Crap

    There was a period of games last year that we/AJax was brutal against the press. This gave me flashbacks to that. It was uncomfortable to watch our strategy with the pressure tonight. However, I am glad that Marquette showed us the weakness tonight. I can't imagine Hurley not putting time in...

    Marquette Post Game Thread

    I really like how Hurley used this game (outside of the last 4 minutes). -Ballsy not calling a TO on Marquette's early run. Basically saying "Alright fellas, this is on you to figure out". And they responded, dare I say, in a championship manner. -Went out of his way to get JStew more...

    Castle Extensive Scouting Report (No Ceilings)

    This translates to FTs as well. Just a kid who has finally settled in. Hopefully the SH game inspires him because he is going to be creating a lot of kickout 3 ops if he keeps driving like that. First 15 games: 42/61, 69% (not so nice!). Last 8 games: 20/22, 91% (13 in a row currently)...

    Creighton Post Game Thread

    Just like we took Kolek/Marquette out of their flow, Cam and Karaban were eliminated. In a mediocre defensive effort, TNews heroics would have brought this thing down to the wire. Too bad we were attrocious on that end for 75% of this game. Changes nothing for me, this is our January. Let's...

    UConn -3 v Creighton

    Will Hurley and the boys will be staring down the barrel of $2/Beer night? If we snatch the W, it's going to be really assuring that this team is ready to roll for tourney time. That being said -3 feels small after our recent warpath.

    Diarra Shout Out

    They put 2 on Castle and the replacement is THAT?! What a roster Danny has constructed. The great thing with Hass is that he's really worked to be much more consistent this year. He had moments last year, but this year another level. High IQ, winning basketball player. Buy those head bands!

    2026 Recruiting: Deron Rippey Jr. Update 1/3/24

    I see this a fair amount, so I hope we get to the bottom of this. I just want to know the psychology behind it. Something there is intentional, because it's obviously not a factory setting. File this away under "things I shouldn't give a damn about, but lingers in the head anyway".

    Chief’s Brief’s - Butler Edition

    He had great length/hands out there in the first half, really disruptive without fouling. Samson is going to be a weapon next year and will get better....but we will need to get muscle in the portal for sure.

    Chief’s Brief’s - Butler Edition

    Should have been a blowout, but a W is a W. We went through the motions a bit tonight. Best thing was that T-New's injury was minor. He's really got to start playing better defense though. At least give us Hawkins level D.

    Dan Hurley says he won't coach into his 60s

    As much as opposing fan bases despise Hurley, the more we (I think I can speak for others here) understand how great of a guy he is. Those people will never get it, because they are fixated on the superficial side of things. Often times coaches give these sound bites as lip service, to sound...

    Andre Jackson, Jr.

    What you say is true regarding AJax's capabilities on defense. He will be great on that end eventually, but currently at this stage he is limited severely by his fouling. The new coach will likely come out of the gates taking no chances for W's and play vets more until he realizes what he's...
