    Hayes vs. Alcindor

    For the elder 'yarders out there, an Edey vs. Clingan rematch reminds me of the classic battle between Elvin Hayes and Lew Alcindor (Kareem) on January 20, 1968. This game was the start of putting college basketball at the forefront of televised sports. I remember watching the game on my family's...

    Losing Club's Message Boards...

    I love going on the losing club's message boards and read how bad their team sucks and perhaps an occasional post abut why UConn is number 1. This week, fans are trashing Pitino because nothing ever changes year to year with the Johnnies. Always on the bubble hoping to get in.

    They did not just do that!

    OK, so I am voting this as the UConn summation for the season. Kind of up there with "we shocked the world".

    JMU did it. Why not us?

    Last year, JMU in its first year of after moving up to the FBS level was 8-3. This year, they are ranked 21st in the polls and are 9-0. So that begs the question - why them and not us? It can't be a lack of resources.

    OT: Operation 351 to Bloomington

    My first Operation 351 basketball trip for the season brings me to Bloomington, Indiana in a couple of weeks to see Indiana, Butler, and Indiana State on three consecutive nights. Any cool places to eat and visit there from those folks living out there?

    OT: Operation 351 Begins the Ninth Season

    Here is my annual post about my mission to visit every D1 campus and see a basketball game. This will be my ninth season. I am currently at 118 games being forced to drop down one from 119 teams when Hartford dropped to D3 last year. I heard that the University of Western Georgia will be added...

    they have been awful. So many mistakes at critical times during the first three games have killed us.

    Andre's Consecutive Blocks...

    I do not have a video to show but you need to see Andre's two blocks on this Walton kid in last nights Vegas game. The Bucks bench all stood up in awe. On block 1, Andre was beat on the drive but recovered to block the layup. Shortly afterward on block 2, he stopped Walton from an easy breakaway...

    OT: Operation 351 News

    Since this is a slow period, I think I should post something that 99% of you don't care about. Operation 351 News: The good news is that St. Francis Brooklyn is dropping out of D1 sports meaning one less school to see in my Operation 351 quest to see a game on all the D1 campuses. The bad news...

    Kansas goes down!

    Not sure if our path to Houston got easier, but I think I'd rather play Arkansas then Kansas.

    Run It Back Video

    I came across these two guys on Reddit. They make very good analysis of our troubles. It’s about 25 minutes long but worth a watch if you are a UConn junkie.

    Calipari vs. Hurley

    I see a strong similarity between Coach Cal and Hurley. Great recruiters but lack a lot in game management. Both fan bases are up in arms right now. The good news here is Kentucky finally broke through and beat Tennessee this weekend. Hopefully that is pretense for us turning the corner.

    OT :Twitter - I am done!

    I made the difficult decision to deactivate my account on Twitter. The hate and disinformation from both sides of the aisle was suffocating and ridiculous. I will miss the running commentary on the games from fellow fans but the membership in this cesspool is not worth it. Just curious if...

    OT: ARCCOS for Golf

    I bought some new PING G425 irons and was given 14 ARCCOS sensors with a 45 day trial. Any of you duffers using ARCCOS with your playing rounds? What do you think?

    Two big improvements I saw..

    1. Hawkins defense was outstanding last night. Impressive on the ball guarding and some high leaping rebounds. 2. Sanogo's passings is coming around. The coaching staff is working hard on what was an obvious problem earlier this year.

    OT: Yale vs. UConn Football Programs

    I am a life long collector of UConn memorabilia many of which is displayed in my Husky room. Specifically, I am in need of the Yale vs. UConn football programs from Yale 1990, 1992, and 1994 to complete my set from that series,. If anyone from this esteemed group would like to depart of their...

    OT : Operation351 is back!

    As is the tradition, I continue my quest this year to visit every D1 campus to see a basketball game posting a quote from Fishy years ago when I first announced my journey on the Boneyard: “You have no chance of doing it. But beyond that, you don’t want to. At some point, you’ll find yourself...

    Any conjecture on why Sanogo played so little in the second half?

    Any conjecture on why Sanogo played so little in the second half? My guess : Hurley wanted to give Tyrese some minutes but we did a lousy job on the boards tonight without Sanogo in there.

    TV Coverage Tonight?

    I use You Tube TV. FS1 is an available channel. I also know that You Tube TV dropped the regional sports channels back in October. My scheduled recordings include Hartford this Friday but not for tonight. So do I need to download the Fox Sports app to my Iphone to watch the game?

    XL Crowd

    I have been to many UConn games over the years at the XL but the noise when Sid dunked after the save by CV was the absolute loudest ever. Second place goes to the time when we beat Georgetown and Ewing.

    OT: Yale Uconn Football Programs

    I am a collector of UConn memorabilia including UConn football programs. I have all the Yale vs. UConn football programs dating back to 1948 except for 1977, 1990, 1992 and 1994. The last three years were post marriage and early age kids years so I know how I missed them! No excuse for 1977...
