Bc the opposite isn’t true. If you run successfully it causes the defense to stack the box more to stop the run, creating more one on one coverages and better chances at plays through the air. If you go pass first a defense will just drop into zone coverage and still have their front who’s...

I agree with you, but I think what people mean is in the “bios” below the username he no longer has UConn listed on any of his profiles, not necessarily what he’s posting.

The rallies are never students only, my son and I were up there last year for it. Just go get in line early and you’ll be right next to the stage. It’s a lot of sitting around for a short celebration though.

Purdue could only get up 63 points against the 147th ranked defense in NC State, I see a repeat. UConn 81 Purdue 62

Where are videos of UConn fans in the streets celebrating a Sweet Sixteen win? Oh wait, we don’t celebrate small victories. Just shows they’re not ready for the big time.

If they did make some kind of agreement they’d be better off merging into one conference and splitting into regional divisions with alternating crossover games like the NFL currently does. I don’t necessarily foresee that happening, but if you’re battling for conference #3 in the rankings you...

And you probably hung a banner for being runner up. Time to go to bed little brother.

What time does Cincy play today? Can’t find a scheduled game on the schedule I’m looking at. Also, you were 0-1 against that mid/low major conference, losing to its 9th ranked team.

FWIW, all the tickets were sold out long before people knew who would play when. If there’s a time UConn isn’t playing it’s going to have the smaller crowd, and the main people feeling it are the people selling on the secondary market. Also, the 4/5 is played right after for the same reasons as...

Hasn’t it been said Sean Miller is getting hired by OSU at end of season?

I may be totally missing something here, but in exchanges with two different fans they held up three fingers at Hurley. What was the point of that?

UConn is already committed to tournaments next year so they’re not eligible to be considered for this one as well.

I don’t disagree with you it’s how the polls work, but the week you talk about Kansas and Purdue both lost to unranked teams, and Houston lost twice to unranked teams. UConn lost to #15, if the loss to Seton Hall was this week rather I would agree with your metric, but UConn has one loss to an...

Load up an 18 wheeler or two and drive it out there. Most places can typically be driven two within 2 days, Cal/Stanford may need more time, but it’s fuel cost and maybe an extra days pay for the driver. Not a huge expense in the grand scheme of logistics.

Creighton got spanked by the same amount to an unranked team and moved up two spots. It’s not victimhood, it’s the writers voting off the weeks box scores, not the bigger picture. All of it doesn’t matter, you don’t win a title in the regular season, but as a fan it’s ok to question it.

No troll job at all. Beating UConn was viewed by the writers as a momentous enough of a feat to move up three spots, even when losing badly to St John’s for Creighton. But yet the superiority for UConn that worked for Creighton worked against UConn themselves. Let’s not forget UConn was...

No love. Creighton beating UConn but losing to St John’s climbs them three spots, but yet UConn losing to a top 15 drops them two spots. These writers have no clue.

I think he will hit the portal to fill holes as he has in last couple years. I think he has adapted well to the “free agency” aspect of basketball. Look at Newton, Diarra, Calcaterra and Spencer as examples. I trust this man whatever he thinks is best route.

That would be my uncle and cousins you speak of!

Then I’m happy with what we have, bc Samson is getting his year like Clingan did last year and next year he shines. If he leaves we’re left completely untested at the 5. Sanogo doesn’t make this team much better, or at all better frankly, than Samson does. Probably an unpopular take but it’s my...

Yes, but that’s literally the fabric of UConn basketball, everyone clapping and spelling out U-C-O-N-N in the song leading to tip. Calling it dated is like saying Sweet Caroline is lame at Fenway or New York, New York at Yankee Stadium.

You can’t assure the same chemistry, Johnson wouldn’t have this time to prove himself, and you’re also short a scholarship for current squad. You keeping Sanogo and not able to bring in Spencer? I’ll take him leaving for this team makeup 100/100 times.

I doubt it. I’m sure his school looked at a near sold out MSG regardless of it’ll be mostly UConn fans and said, sorry Rick, not happening. UConn fans would have filled Carnesecca too out of spite and St John’s fans would have happily cashed in on the inflated prices they sold their tickets for.

Conversely wouldn’t be the worst thing to give him some run to get some wind before a bigger game like Creighton. But only if he’s healthy enough.

UConn, UNC, and Kentucky were the only three top 10 teams to win in the last two days AND cover the spread. To call the win last night “mayhem” when covering the spread on the road with no Clingan and Karaban out for a decent stretch in second half with the bleeding is poor reporting.

Correct, that’s why I was asking businesslawyer where according to him UConn stated the 2028 game was moved.

Where did UConn state such? What I see is a tweet by UConn announcing a series in 24/25 and someone retweeting and speculating it was the 28 game moved.

I watched this and texted one of my friends and said we no doubt could have made this team coming out of high school. In my 40’s currently I still make 12th man on the team.

I’d bet this is more tickets that were allocated, whether it be families, sponsors etc that were not claimed so they post with the hope of monetizing them to whatever level they can. The demand is there for a season like this where that type of game doesn’t need to be played.

I also think however though that by winning, even against lower tier teams, attendance across the board may increase. Also the games with the higher attendance were earlier in the year when expectations were higher, playing NC State when you’re 1-8 will have far less butts in the seats. I’ve had...

How does a school like Delaware feel who was the first to pay the larger fee to upgrade to FBS to basically be told you don’t matter less than two weeks after? Wonder if there’s a return policy on their commitment.

I think he’s saying he’ll donate up to $100K in total, not that he will match up to any $100k donation.

I’ve heard far too much about Texas being without their bigs and how the game would have been different without them while fully discounting UConn was without Castle, and Clingan was visibly sick and not himself. Two projected lottery picks were “out” for UConn, but that’s just swept under the...
