What if Morgan Tuck, Azura Stephens and Megan Walker had stayed for their remaining year of eligibility - 3 more National Championships?

Geno is too much of a baseball fan to allow Caroline to be Wally Pip-ed!

Last year Geno was talking about one of his recruits for this year's team - Nika Muhl. She is a 6'1" playmaking guard from Croatia who told coach that she would rather make an assist than score a basket because " an assist makes two players happy and a basket only me." Nika must be the happiest...

I didn't know him but he was a great h.s. player. I remember seeing his photo in basketball mags that listed the best high schoolers in the country. I guess he followed that York Larese, Doug Moe connection to North Carolina. Did he stay there or did he end up coming back to St. John's?

As you know, even after St Anne's moved to Briarwood and became Archbishop Molloy - they remained the Stanners. When Chaminade played them in 1963-4, their star was Rudy Bogad who went on to St John's. I think that we finished second to them in the Bklyn-L.I. division. Our star player was Jim...

May he rest in peace! Another Stanner in heaven!

Conan the Barbarian said it best" "To crush your enemies. To see them driven before you. To hear the lamentations of their women."

I was at Chaminade in the early 60s. Here is the 1963 CHSAA All-City Team: Val Reid, LaSalle (played at Syracuse); Willie Wolters, Loughlin (Kara's father; played for Bob Cousy at Boston College); Lew Alcindor, Power Memorial; Lloyd "Sonny" Dove, St. Francis Prep (played at St. John's U. and in...

Spc 5, Chaplain's Assistant, 4th Infantry Division, 1969-70 Central Highlands.

Here is an article with multiple quotes from Molly that paints a more positive picture of her UCONN experience. Faith guard

I can't wait for Ania's reaction. She has said that her idol from when she started playing basketball has been DT. I can't imagine the overwhelming feelings that she will experience playing with her - maybe even guarding her or being guarded by her. That's why you come to UCONN!

Why can't y'all just accept the fact that Boneyarders are not ESPN's target audience. They want the casual sports fan who'll watch the game because it's UCONN vs ND or because GENO "hates" MUFFET and vice versa. In order to maintain their ratings they have to string along those viewers when the...

The situation will not improve until women become dedicated sports fans and buy tickets, support teams and bring their friends and families to the games. Men aren't going to do it in sufficient numbers to sustain the WNBA. Being a fan starts at a young age and mothers need to pass the "fan gene"...

Joe Newton, the X-Country Coach of York HS in Elmhurst, IL - arguably one of the greatest programs in the country over the past 25 years: "His philosophy of coaching his Dukes was simple: "If they know you love them, they'll do anything for you," I see and hear a lot of that in Geno. (And I...

Why is everyone so sure that Ania asked for #24. I had the impression from the UCONN Press Release that the number was assigned to her. IMHO that releases her from the obligation of requesting the permission of the previous wearer.

I don't think Amin knows what he's talking about most of the time and Rebecca and Kara (who know better - or should) encourage him. But as bad as the three of them were yesterday, we (Boneyarders) are not their intended audience. ESPN has them reaching out to entertain the casual fan who will...

I think that her experience in the WNBA, however brief, should also be an asset in recruiting.

Why has no one yet mentioned the "obvious"? The WNBA league and fan base are incorrectly perceived as made up mostly of gay women. Until that perception changes, the WNBA will never take its rightfully deserved place in professional sports.

JellyBean - you could be like EDDIE in the movie with Whoopi Goldberg! From the stands to the bench...

Morgan Tuck!

We seem to go through this every year...last year it was the inanities of Doris Burke and Company. Why can't some of us get it through our heads that Boneyarders are not the intended audience for these broadcasts and like the wise (beyond his years) Bags27...turn off the chatter!

...and Tierney Lawlor!!!

Tierney Lawlor was sitting behind the bench (Danny K has a couple of pics of her) - but I think she's used up all her eligibility!!

Thank you for sharing this very funny skit!! From your Subject Line though, I expected this: Norm Van Brocklin, Tommy McDonald, Pete Retzlaff, Billy Barnes, Clarence Peaks, Chuck Bednarik, etc. Only playoff loss for Lombardi was against the 1960 Eagles. I was 12 years old as I sat with my father...

You're thinking of Wayne McCoy from Long Island Lutheran. McCoy may still hold the Long Island HS single game scoring record. I remember it because he did it against my alma mater Chaminade HS. As a bit of trivia: the Manhaset HS single game scoring record was held for many years by Jim Brown...

Maybe someone like BAGS can answer this for me? I remember a rule (because I was once long ago called for violating it!) that while you could bounce the ball at the foul line - Once you stopped, if you bounced the ball again, it was a violation. If the ball left your hand after you had stopped -...

What about personal fouls? Last year Gabby was foul prone early in the season. Has she improved this year?

Wasn't it Mabrey who clotheslined Gabby last year near the end of the game?

Just got a message on Watch ESPN - "This event has been blacked out in your area." - and SNY says "No Blackout" - Yeah right!

I live in Binghamton, NY. "Black Out" apparently has nothing to do with physical distance from Storrs - but because my local cable system (SPECTRUM) has SNY available as part of its sports package ESPN 3 is "blacked out." I am not a cable subscriber and I access ESPN (and ESPN 3 on the ESPN...

Turn Gabby loose and it's the Kobayashi Maru all over again. She'll change the rules and then dominate the test. The great ones do that!

PK80 is scheduled for Portland - not Eugene.

In 1962, I remember watching Willie play for Brooklyn's Bishop Loughlin H.S. against my alma mater Chaminade in our band box of a gym. Two years later in 1964, our center - 6'9" Jim Kissane - joined Willie on the Bob Cousy coached Boston College team.

I'm surprised that Myra Gordon '20 (Lexi's sister) is not on that list.

I think that the SHU home game will be moved to the Meadowlands Arena (cap. @19,000). In the absence of a game at MSG, this could be a big event for NJ/NY alums. Just a thought...
