    6 YR Old Signs National Letter of Intent With UConn

    You're a rock on the outside but inside you're all gooey. :p

    On the Importance of Crystal

    She looked great with the ball in her hands but did make two terrible turnovers. She has some swagger and her stop and pop will stun most opponents, like a dagger in her waistband with which she stabs them in the heart (figuratively, of course). :D

    6 YR Old Signs National Letter of Intent With UConn

    I wonder if Jeff Walz is grumbling about the one that got away. :p

    Megan Gets Well Deserved Attention

    As I posted in another thread, I think she can string together 4-5 of these performances, not like 1 out of 5 like last year, IMHO.

    Based on what I'm seeing, Chris Dailey will "never, ever get into a game."

    Who jumped center for us today?

    Worst announcing team ever. Add to that the game playing while the first set of commercials were running. Low cost, low class operation. Betcha that they wouldn't do that to Notre Dame. Head bang

    Ohio st recap

    As always, very pleased with Pheesa, KLS and Crystal (save a couple of awful turnovers). CW was beyond what you'd expect from a freshman. Played like she belonged out there. On to Meghan Walker. Saw everything Geno said about her come true. The best thing, IMHO, is that I think this won't...

    Where is the Prognosticators Game Predictions for the OSU Game

    Double them up, 94-47. UConn at least as good defensively than USF and a whole lot better on offense, IMHO. :p

    2019/20 UConn Recruiting

    The recruitment saga is quite simple, if you want a guarantee, buy a toaster.

    A couple of post-game thoughts

    Not trying to be contrary but all the top teams "fatten up" on the lesser lights of their OOC schedule. :rolleyes:

    Another Short Bench for the Huskies This Season?

    Let's face it, this team is 6 deep with the 6th man a freshman P who needs strength and conditioning work. I'm among the throng who expected (hoped really) that last year's bench would produce a couple of people who could sub and contribute this year. The fourth quarter showed what folly that...

    A couple of post-game thoughts

    Ain't no problem with the starters, IMHO, especially the three amigos. :D Quality of play dropped significantly when KLS sat. MW's double-double is just the start for her. Bench play is still problematical. :oops:

    Replacing Kia and Gabby w/ Christyn & Megan... the good, bad & ugly..

    Thanks but it wasn't that hard. Lou, Pheesa and Crystal Dangerfield were locks. After that, we just listened to Geno praise CW and MW. Add that to their #! status coming out and bingo! I just listened to the brain trust here, the most knowledgeable fan base in all of college womens' basketball, bar none...

    Replacing Kia and Gabby w/ Christyn & Megan... the good, bad & ugly..

    The object of the game is still the same......score more points than the opponent. I see the D evolving during the year as new combinations of players adjust to each other and to Geno's scheme. I also think that the offense will lead the way out of the gate and will continue at that pace...

    Which WCBB games do you plan on attending this season?

    #12, the National Championship game (and the semi-final too). :D:D:D

    UConn recruiting classes - Is two enough?

    For any other team, two top ten recruits each year would yield a team four years down the road with eight top ten players.....and every year thereafter. UConn already has six top ten so maintaining this won't be a problem, at least in the short run, even if just Jones or Boston commits for 2020.

    Lexi Gordon before (bio) stats were impressive

    The only problem with late, game over, substitutions is that you can't see how the player shows her skillset in a game that's over, playing for the most part alongside other bench players. Give her some time as the first sub off the bench playing with four starters. If she has the skills, that...

    Most popular candy in every state

    We ran into the same thing after handing out the large Snickers bars and large bags of M&M Peanuts. Throngs of kids from other neighborhoods and older teens coming back 2-3 times. We hit $125 in candy before we quit the whole scene. Now I shut off all the lights out front and throughout the...

    Final Four

    We live about 45 minutes from the arena and had the privilege of watching the ladies beat Notre Dame the last time they were in town for the NC game.

    Final Four

    Just scored two tix in Sec. 110, high up in the section. Would have had better seats but my wife's doctor called just before they went on sale and I couldn't get online until they'd been on sale for five minutes. Tried six different selections but got the dreaded "someone else has selected...

    UConn’s Walker poised for a breakout season

    You can significantly increase your overall strength without showing significant muscle development. You may look the same if you've replaced some baby fat with muscle. Pheesa may have done so without getting the "guns" that CD has. I did the same when I was in the Army. I never developed...

    OT: Favorite Sandwiches (Sammiches) you make at home

    For Cajuns, it's two servings. For everyone else, it's ten servings. Ten peppers will cover five 18' baguettes. Cut in half to yield ten servings.

    OT: Favorite Sandwiches (Sammiches) you make at home

    Roasted in the oven for 20 minutes with the peppers and EVOO then mixed and turned and left in for another 20 minutes, the garlic becomes soft and mild. You can leave it off the sandwich if you're a girly girl. :p

    OT: Favorite Sandwiches (Sammiches) you make at home

    On a baguette, either my eggplant parm with shaved ham, or homemade double roasted red peppers oven finished with EVOO and thirty cloves of thin-sliced garlic, hot cappicola, good genoa salami, mortadella and provolone, all thin sliced. It's like eating candy.

    My UWBB 2018-19 Wish List

    I want to see the team opposing UConn in this season's national championship game sitting on their bench wondering if anyone got the plate number of the truck that just ran them over.
