    Balance and Dominance

    Six guys in double figures and a very easy 27 point win. This team exemplifies TEAM.

    Amazing Dan Hurley Trajectory

    In his six seasons as Head Coach at UConn, his winning % has gone up EVERY year. I'm sure that's not a feat that many D1 coaches have accomplished.

    I've been a UConn fan since 1980 and can't remember a UConn team only having 2 losses this late in the season

    I've been a UConn fan since 1980 and can't remember a UConn team only having 2 losses this late in the season. Have we had a better record through 22 games in any season?

    OT: Luigi Carneseca turned 99 this week

    When I first starting watching UConn and Big East Basketball in the early 80s, Louie was the Coach at St. John's. His teams were talented, always played hard, and a victory over them was a legit cause for celebration. They won 5 Big East regular season titles fron 1980 to 1992, as well as Big...

    A night none of us will ever forget

    Hawkins coming out party with 31. Samson looking exactly like we all hoped he could be. Frightening upside. Karaban, career high and a big step toward becoming a UConn legend. All American in the making?

    Box Score Notes

    5 in double figures including Samson. Spencer with 5 assists to lead the team. Newton continuing to fill the stat sheet with 14. 7, and 3. Clingan with 12 points in only 15 minutes. Looked great out there to the point where I forgot about any foot injury. Karaban with 22. All American in...

    UConn Memorabilia

    I deal in antiques, collectibles, etc. Consequently, some cool stuff winds up in my own collection. Was thrilled to acquire this license plate today.

    UConn Men's Basketball Accomplishments...

    NIT Championship in 88 NCs in 99, 04, 11, 14, and 23 Knocked Shaq out of the NCAA Tourney Had the #2 and #3 picks in the same draft... Keep this going, the overall list will be insane.

    That D

    Maybe I'm just doubling down hard on recency bias, but the D during the tourney run and especially last night was simply suffocating. A very good SDSU team got very few good looks over 40 minutes. Massive congrats to Coach Hurley for building a sustainable great program. So happy that...

    Big East Standings /Head Coaches

    Big East Standings /Head Coaches Pretty high correlation between past achievements as a Head Coach and current conference standings. Definitely illustrates just how important leadership is in the college game. Hurley has UConn in the middle of the pack, a position that aligns pretty much...

    Total Domination

    Total domination last night. The outcome was never in doubt. Kind of reminded me of the NC game against Georgia Tech. Busted it wide open early and it was never single digits again. Great to get such a convincing, quality win at this point in the season. Props to the staff and players...

    Hawkins has arrived

    Much more assertive recently, great plays on both ends of the floor. Now a bona fide star.

    Free Throw Disparity, 3's and the Transfers

    Some box score notes. Providence outscored UConn by 19 points from the free throw line (29-10) , and 9 points from 3 point range (24-15). The collective disparity is far too much to overcome. Equally concerning was the play of our 4 transfers who scored a total of 9 points and 5 rebounds in...

    Andre is the most unique player I've ever seen in a UConn uniform

    Andre is the most unique player I've ever seen in a UConn uniform. He impacts the game constantly. As they said on last night's broadcast, he just seems to glide. That play where Clingan passed to ball to him in stride at halfcourt resulting in a big dunk was a thing of beauty. I'm guessing...

    Driving to Florida from CT

    I never thought I would do this again, but my folks car that they kept in SW FL was totaled in September as a result of flooding during Hurricane Ian. My mom would like to have her new car down there and I have a willing co-pilot, so why not. We have a fun pit stop in Osprey, FL to see live...

    High Water Mark

    As I sit here after watching the parade of cupcakes followed by convincing wins over 3 good teams, I must conclude that Coach Hurley and his staff have done a tremendous job of assembling, preparing and motivating this squad. I think any of us would be hard pressed to find a happier time as a...

    Donovan Clingan

    I realize last night's game was against Sisters of the Poor, but a stat line for DC of 9, 7, and 4 off the bench was a great debut. Nice job, young man.

    AJax in 2022-23

    Jackson is one of the most interesting players I can recall in a UConn uniform. Incredible hops, great vision, averaged 6.8 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists as a soph on 36% shooting from 3, and 42% overall. He also averaged 2 turnovers and .6 blocks. He only shot 71% from the line though...

    Tyrese

    Show them all how wrong they were for not naming you to any of the Big East teams. Make them pay. Dearly.

    Gaffney was good

    9 minutes. 8 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist. Role player playing role very well.

    Best win of the Hurley era

    Congrats to coach Young you are now 1 and 0. Nova is damn good. What a great victory!

    Sanogo Running The Floor

    One "skill" that Sanago has that you don't often see with "Bigs" is the ability to take it full court by himself for a breakaway dunk. I think he has 4 or 5 of them this season. I don't recall our previous Centers ever really doing this much. Perhaps Cliff Robinson? There was one...

    Not a TY-PO

    TyPo stepped up big with 16 off the bench. He covered up that 2nd half ball handling nightmare.

    Kenpom ratings of Big East Teams

    UConn is currently #19 in the Kenpom ratings. Nova is #8, the Hall is #32, and Marquette and Xavier are at 38 and 39 respectively. Providence is at #44 despite a 21-3 record. Is their out of conference strength of schedule really that bad? Creighton checks in at #71. At this point, it...

    Player of the Match: Tyrese Martin

    Huge game from Tyrese. He saved a lot of butts today. He will be remembered for the 17 points, but his D on Champagnie was great too.

    RJ Cole 2143 Points

    RJ has scored a combined 2143 points combined at Howard and UConn. Chris Smith is UConn's all time leader with 2145. While realizing that about 1500 of those points came at Howard, it's still a lofty total...and he still has the rest of this season and possibly next season to add to it.

    Does anyone know of any good deals on rental cars in Fort Myers in March? The best rate I am finding is $41 per day. I'll be renting of 16 days, 3-1:thru 3-17. Thanks in advance.

    End of January, Where The Team Is At

    On 1-31-22 UConn is 15-4, Ranked #17 in the AP and Top 3 in the Big East. I would certainly have signed up for that before the season. The team is healthy and has won 5 in a row, albeit against teams at or near the bottom of the conference. As some have said, you can only play who's on the...

    Your First UConn Game In Person

    Seeing Patrick Ewing on the court the other night made me think about all the games I've seen over the years and how great the old Big East was. It also made me think back to my first UConn game in person. It was a January 14, 1984 Saturday game against Seton Hall and Coach PJ Carlisemo...
