    Transfer portal getting nuts

    This should, in theory, result in a better college basketball product at the top of D1. Late bloomers and under the radar talent getting added to top HS talent. I’m all for it from a basketball perspective.

    2024 Recruiting: Aidan Mahaney

    Very solid ballhandling, shooting, and passing skills. Would look nice in our offense. Not sure about defense and alongside Nowell we’d be small. But definitely worth a look.

    2024 Recruiting: Tarris Reed Jr.

    I’ve been reading up on Reed and he sounds like a smart, coachable kid with involved parents. Not the entitled type. Started basketball later in life than most, and based on highlights I’ve watched, has a lot more to get out of his frame and athleticism with some better coaching and...

    OT: Early fandom

    My first strong memory of UConn basketball was listening to the NIT championship game on the radio. My parents weren’t sports fans but something about that NIT run caught my attention as an 11 year old boy and I put the game on the radio in my room and listened by myself and remember being so...

    Pattern Recognition - UConn Will Repeat in 2024

    I think you mean plagiarizing. If you copyrighted in the first place maybe a lawyer could help you. I swear it was enough of an original thought that I got excited enough to make a rare post. But kudos to you for making the same observation! Excited to start the mathematically guaranteed...

    Pattern Recognition - UConn Will Repeat in 2024

    Sorry if this is bad mojo, but it's not a matter of opinion - it's just a statement of fact in the form of a mathematical equation. UConn will win the 2024 National Championship. How do I know this? It's easy: As you all know, UConn has won titles in 99, 04, 11, 14, and 23. I was reminded...

    OT: Big East Scrimmage/Exhibition Intel

    Yeah, I’ll take Cam. Who ever wanted Timberlake anyways? Good reminder that things have a way of working themselves out.

    OT: Caption this photo

    What? Nobody told me I had to sit with those nerds. I am NOT going to hold that creepy baby! If they even bring out that baby I’m going to UConn.

    r/CollegeBasketball user claims to have insider info on Cooper Flagg -> UConn*

    I’m checking this thread way more often than I should, as a husband, parent, and business owner. This is my crack. Keep it coming. At this point, I’m all in that Coop and Big Patt commit in the next 30 days. I’ll take 1 of 2, but God help me, I believe.

    Good new Flagg article

    Growing up a college basketball fan in New England in the 80s, Duke was my dream school. No great reason - I just fell for Phil Henderson, Danny Ferry, Quin Snyder, the Cameron Crazies, and yes, Coach K. Then came Laettner and Grant Hill, and I was hooked. In 1992, I got a dream opportunity...

    Next Season’s Rotation

    I know we’re talking about minutes, but I think it’s likely we’ll have 4 starters average double figures and there’s an outside chance all 5 could average 10 PPG. It looks like an extremely balanced starting 5. One of the strengths of last year’s team was that even if one or two players had...

    Cam Spencer Commits to UConn

    Good things come to those who wait. Bring on 2023-2024!!

    Transfer Portal April 2023

    No idea if he’d be interested but Jaylin Sellers statistically looks like an ideal fit as an alternative to Timberlake.

    We’ll be fine shut up!!!!!!!

    So a week ago, the worry was that we would repeat and DH would jump to the NBA. Now we’re outside the top 25 and preparing for a rebuilding year. I can’t keep up!!!

    Congrats to Coach Hurley

    Loved watching him on the court postgame with his mom and dad. Loves his wife, kids, and parents. Looks crazed at times on the sidelines but talks calmly with his parents on the court afterward. We’re lucky he’s on our side. Thank you coach for representing UConn well!

    That play reminded me of the Jeter play against the A’s…. only a select few players have those instincts.

    Gonzaga Post Game Thread

    How about Sanogo passing out of double teams and Andre not taking the bait and shooting 3s? Great coaching and great player discipline!!!! It was a chess match early with the Timme/Jackson matchup and Hurley ate Few’s lunch. Then the rest of the team took over and dominated. So proud of...

    Uconn fans outside northeast

    Marietta, GA I wear UConn gear into my office in Atlanta at least once a week and have received 2 comments I can recall in 7 years. One guy was a Syracuse transplant who reminisced with me about the old days…. the other asked “who is that, the wolves?” It’s all college football down here...

    Boeheim's press conference- Must Watch!

    Fast-forward that entire video. He doesn’t move a bit except for lifting his right hand to scratch his cheek for a few seconds at the 1:45 mark. His shoulders don’t move for 7 minutes. Remarkable.

    Most popular candy in every state

    ^^^THIS I get New Mexico's enjoyment of the Jolly Rancher because it's a pure flavor explosion, but Dubble Bubble??? It's crappy even by gum standards. A. It's not candy. B. As for gum, it's basic baseball card pack stale pink gum that loses its flavor in 2.75 minutes, when it becomes a...

    SCSU Scrimmage 11/2

    It’s a game against the Southern Owls... I’d like to see a return to classic UConn expectations for such a game: blow out inferior opponents. I’m kind of tired of hoping we don’t get embarrassed, rather than expecting a blowout. That said, I’m not supposed to give a hoot about results in...

    Secret Scrimmage v Harvard

    I found some footage from the secret scrimmage: Turns out Vital didn’t like being benched for not following coach’s “five pass” rule. LOL Edited: It was a scrimmage and we don’t know at this point what actually happened. Just having fun with the most recent rumor. From what I read on...

    OT: Toasters

    It's not New Haven apizza, but Against the Grain is the only frozen GF pizza I will eat and as a pizza snob I'm a little embarrassed to say that I like it. I'm not GF but most of my family is. I normally find something else to eat on pizza nights but I'll eat an Against the Grain pizza anytime.
