This has been a crazy and awesome run since I came to Storrs as a freshman in 1988. Been an incredible stretch. We are fine in the near term, but when my kids are my age I don't think we will be successful without being with the "in" group. And we all know who that is. I think if you don't...
Very happy we won. I was impressed with the USC freshman. She was a little rushed at times particularly in crunch time but i think you will see her really upping her game with a little more experience at this level. She also has the size and athleticism to become the best player in the sport...
The biggest issue was what was pointed out above. These kids do not make decisions to leave without their NHL team endorsing it at a minimum but more likely requesting they do it. Add to that our special teams have been awful for 10 years. Our in zone defense and breakouts have been awful...
Besides the one season and trip to the finals for Hockey East what exactly has Cav done to continue to lead this program for this long. Sustained mediocrity should not be the goal for the program.
The horses are out of the barn on this. With some of these big schools (or those like Florida state who think they are the greatest) they wont be happy until they have a league of 12 sharing all the revenues. Better yet 6 schools with two teams each. I have stopped worrying about it and will...
Team continues to be a tough watch. I love them but dont like them. We have a lot of good parts but sum if parts way more than the total. Thats coaching. I cant support Cav anymore.
I think it would be interesting to hear him respond in a truthful way and here his thoughts on what we look like and how we perform compared to the guys at his last job. I know it will never happen but that intrigues me.
This team is so frustrating. The continued pattern under Cav. We are mediocre, at best. I do agree we seem to get the wrong end of the whistle but we never overcome adversity. Who is surprised we gave up immediate game tying goal after that call?
The SH goal was inexcusable. Love Bradley...
We played very poorly across the board basically. The team was out “toughed” which i never expect. Its one game though. Need a bounce back.
As to the refs it is an awful situation and pattern that continues every game. I understand I am not objective but its hard to not see the pattern...
The three point percentage has been a little disappointing but I still have confidence when they go up. Plus we rebound a large percent of missed shots anyway.
Ding Ding Ding. We have a winner. People can not see it but it will happen. I love every sport because its my school and I want us to succeed at everything we do. But in the long term the continued sh.. show in football will bury all sports including hoops.
Someone mentioned earlier how much we miss tverberg. That is so true. He would have helped immensely. That said the PP failures are a big reason we feel like the goal scoring is dreadful and that is a systemic and consistent issue for years and drives me insane. Also Wood better start...
I thought the team really fought hard yesterday. Some hot takes based on watching and reading this thread:
There is no defending trying the FG. Made zero sense. Was livid watching the Fg team trot on field
Although the offense contributes to TOP difference it really is about the defense...
The thing that is infuriating is we had a legit chance to win. However the fact we cant get off field on 3rd down and peculiar coaching decisions coupled with bad penalties and dropped passed leads to losing. Bad teams find ways to lose even when playing good.
I don’t know. I hope this is correct. The issue is against teams we should handle their appears to be no sense of urgency and I am not sure there is a whole lot of firepower on offense. Defense continues to make dumb plays. We are going on about 8 years of a terrible power play. I hate to...
I just got engaged today after messing up the choice for marriage 1. This 1 is awesome. Congrats to Husky 99. We are probably both second chance all stars. Lol
At this point since I have calmed down a bit since Saturday I still believe in Mora. The one thing that really irks me though is the first part of the game Saturday. You are coming off a beatdown on the road and if ever you needed a win it was that game. The first two defensive drives may...
I was 8 years old. My favorite thing was to watch Giant games with my dad. I thought game was over and went into bathroom. Finished quickly but when I returned to the TV he matter of factly said they just lost. That stretch from 1968-1979 must have been brutal for him. That play was the...
I thought the only way i could move past Uconn was with the Giants. Gained excitement all day, had a couple cocktails around 7:30. Was very happy with the way the game opened and then it may have been the worst performance I have ever witnessed subsequent to the penalty you referenced. What a...
I legitimately lost my last night. I was over the top and my family was appalled with how i reacted watching the game. I try to be rational but that was hard to watch and not think about our recent past. I felt like we were beyond these types of games particularly after in my mind not...
