    UConn and the team building blocks

    There are several ways to go about building a team given that you have 10 or 12 or 15 players for 5 months, beginning in November. Lets look at two: A. Give every player on the roster a somewhat equal number of minutes per game; then minimize having your 5 least skilled players on the...

    Maddy Siegrist is a great player and sometimes mentioned as a possible Player of the Year

    True. Also true - Geno respected that by following suit. It is a bit of a slight to have the winning coach empty the bench whilst the opponent is still competing. In my opinion, of course.

    Maddy Siegrist is a great player and sometimes mentioned as a possible Player of the Year

    You missed the point... It's true, UCONN was running the clock and their best players were in the game. FOr Nova, Maddie did what she always does - wants to win the game and so she scores points. She also committed her 4th foul. Geno didn't claim victory by putting the end of the bench in...

    Maddy Siegrist is a great player and sometimes mentioned as a possible Player of the Year

    People throwing shade Maddie Siegrist's way. FOR SHAME. A 6' 1" guard Scores 65+ percent of her teams points, every time out Has to guard either the power forward or Center Without her (as someone else said earlier) Nova wins about 6 games No complaints from her though; as she gets on with it...

    Photos & Observations from Courtside Yesterday

    . @oldude, a request? What was it like standing for 12+ minutes waiting for UCONN to score at the beginning of the second half? That was wicked good and I would have loved being there to experience that atmosphere. .

    What influenced the referees in the Tennessee game

    ... Just my opinion: I expect that referees look at videos of previous games of the teams in their upcoming games. Given that, and hearing Geno's very favorable compliments as to how UCONNs previous game was officiated, there was a "let them play" takeaway. Within the game then, we saw the...

    NEVER play TENN again

    ... CAREFUL what you ask for: 1) DePaul game (w94-51) ...Everyone loved how that was called: ....Geno - Loved it and said great officiating and that it was called like the men's game and that we need more of those. ...Boneyard - agreed vigorously and want's more too. 2) Tennessee game (w84-67)...

    Shout out to the refs in the UConn-DePaul game

    It seemed like every call went UCONN's way. Every coach whose team received that treatment would applaud and throw kudos. Granted, DePaul were a bit aggressive; but...

    Amari & Dorka: “Goggles”

    . if she doesn't aspire to be good/great, she will have these 12 players ahead of her next year: - Griffin - Edwards - Bueckers - Muhl - Ducharme - Fudd - Patterson - Brady - Arnold - Shade - Samuels - El Alfy Given that scenario, does anyone seriously think she will get more...

    UConn on ESPN Game Day

    AAAGH! that "Someone" would be me. And, it was in the context of finding a date that would work for both teams. It seemed logical to me that cancelling the TN game would be the best choice since it is an OOC; whereas, the DePaul game must be played as it is an Big East Conference game. As it...

    DePaul - Possible reschedule.....maybe

    . Pure speculation; but, in looking at both schedules (UCONN and DePaul), here is one possibility: DePaul is idle between the 21st and 28th of January. UCONN plays Providence on January 21st And, they play Villanova on January 29th In between, UCONN plays Tennessee on January the 26th...

    Frequency of games during this Semester Break

    With regard to several threads bemoaning the frequency of games during this Semester break. Total Rubbish, I say. The last thing these kids need is to have games every six days, rather than the every two or three days as depicted in the chart below. Imagine how dreary five or six days on...

    Just for fun.....

    . Now, don't everyone get excited....this is all "Tongue-in-cheek" stuff. I think we have to bench Edwards and here's why: 1) She back rolls into Fudd's knee, causing it to hyper extend. Result: Out 6 games now and counting 2) She knees Muhl in the back of the head and knocks her...

    Ice Brady out for the season

    @KingKong139 - you fall into my #3 Group: Begrudge, throw shade and etc. The board seems to agree with me in that you scored a well deserved -2 on the like/dislike count for your 55 posts. Definitely not a UCONN Fan. .

    Ice Brady out for the season

    . This thread parallels other threads as to which group a commenter falls into. There are three groups: 1) A group that understands sports and injuries; they offer support and encouragement. 2) A group that doesn't understand the injury aspect: they lament that the season is over. 3) A...

    OT: Aliyah Boston snubbed at ESPYs; Bob Bueckers tweets support

    It may be that it saved Aliyah from having a national TV audience see her dismay when she wasn't the winner at the ceremony. Kathy Ledecky was the winner. She has won six Olympic individual gold medals and 14 world championship individual gold medals, the most in history for a female swimmer...
