    Tickets and attendance……

    I am only speculating, and perhaps someone has officially inquired of how ticket sales are progressing which may prove me wrong, but from my casual discussions about Uconn football a lot of people are taking a “show me we have turned the corner attitude”. For this reason I am concerned we will...

    Crowds at PK tourneys

    Love everything about our start to season. Excited for tonight. Kind of off topic but is anyone else surprised at the small crowds for almost every game in this tourney? Top teams and good games. If this tourney was local here with no Uconn I would think crowds would still be good.

    Teams that make bowl games….

    Are allowed to continue to practice until the game. I assume it’s like any other time during the season where there is limitation in total hours etc. That said I always thought that his was a huge advantage and also made it harder for teams who were not good to get better (no bowl no...

    I know the team benefits from a bye….

    But it absolutely sucks for the fans. I hate it so much. Both for Uconn and the pros. I will be miserable again when the Giants have it in a few weeks. Also tougher to deal with after a loss like that. I still am beyond aggravated. All of the good feelings are suddenly out of mind.

    Men Crawford status?

    Forgive me if this has been discussed or posted. Obviously Reggie is out for this season and will be drafted. It really stinks we don’t have him as he was poised for huge things. That said, has there been any updates on him and his recovery etc? I know it’s not that far removed from the...

    Was hoping for more commits today

    Was out of touch until now and jumped on here as soon as I could. Was hoping for a few more commits. That said I love the direction we are going in over all. I trust Mora. Hate to wish time away but I can’t wait for next year.

    Sucks this weekend cancelled….

    Was really looking forward to some hockey after a long work week….I am So “done” with COVID. It says postponed so I assume we will try and make this up somewhere along the way?

    So maybe I am the only one…..

    I am mildly happy we are competitive. But I want to actually win a game. Wtf are we doing on defense? We are rushing 3 and 4 guys every play. And not able to stop anything anyway. On the 4th and 4 bring everyone. Worst case we get the ball back with time to score. That is soft. we are...

    So changing the subject to attendance..

    I did not see a lot of discussion after the HC game on attendance (not surprising). Maybe my standards were a bit low but when I walked in I was pleasantly surprised. One thing I should mention is I had a conflict and did not enter the building until 2:45 left in first half. So I thought it...

    Giants

    As a long time fan, the last 5 years of Uconn and the Giants had made my football seasons almost unbearable. However for the first time in a while I am starting to enjoy watching them again. I know you can only hang your hat on playing hard and keeping it close for so long but this feels...

    OT: CBD oils, pills, edibles etc.

    I am getting old. My body hurts in a lot of places. Particularly my elbow lately and I like to play golf a lot. I used to be pretty good but the pain is making playing even decent tough and thus less enjoyable. On top of it I sleep like crap most nights. Alcohol used to help with sleep but...

    Giants screw it up again

    I guess this is what happens when you hire a GM fired by the panthers. Unbelievable.

    Why do certain fans consistently perpetuate negativity?

    I am a frequent reader of these boards and it amazes me no matter what the topic is there are always posters who take such a negative position several months after the season is over. I come here in the off-season because I am excited about the coming year and want to look forward. Reading the...

    Hardcore out

    I am done. Can’t handle this anymore. This had evolved into a total embarrassment.

    Serious question I asked before...

    With independence looming I think it’s worth it to ask for the BY opinions again. I don’t want to get into whether it can happen and harp on the ineptitude of the athletic department etc. I just wonder if Uconn had a UCF like turnaround and started winning 10-12 games a year for 4-5 years what...

    Attendance Prediction

    Someone always starts one. I see a lot of posts indicating bigger than normal groups, weather seems to be cooperating. Can we get to 25000 actual in seats for this? Is that too low or high. That would be pretty good to me. That said I predict 21496 actual reported at 28789.

    Aircraft club parking

    Does anyone know when that parking will open Thursday? We have parked there for years because our group arrives at all different times and before the relaxed rules we could not park together in regular lots. We have grown used to it and like the extra room. Was not sure with the earlier...

    Thoughts on tonight/season

    Good crowd tonight, and I was happy with 3rd period effort. They could have folded but played well and had a chance. That said this season is very frustrating and basically over. If Uconn was going to be good this year we needed very good goaltending. Outside of a few games it’s actually...

    Syracuse help for Saturday...

    Heading to Cuse for weekend. Was wondering if anyone knew what tailgate situation was. It looks like you park away from dome and get shuttled in. I guess I can live with that if necessary. However I am Looking for specific information on whether it’s tailgate friendly for alcohol, grills...

    Tickets for Friday...

    I know they were selling tickets well in advance but I did not buy. I am planning to go but it does not seem like they are selling right now? Need to just walk up and buy? Not a big deal. Just was curious if anyone here knows.

    Observations from Boston

    Went to game last night. Obviously result was not what was wanted but it was a great effort. Uconn fans showed up and supported the boys. Was very happy about that. I have always supported masonius but his turnover caused the second goal. We know all about Friday. So two biggest goals...

    Who’s going to Boston....

    I will be there for Saturday game and likely Sunday if there is a game. Staying at Holiday Inn which is about 10 minute walk. Note that as I was renewing football tickets I asked my rep about hockey tickets. He said they are selling for $26 per ticket plus a $5 order charge. Not sure anyone...

    So if you are Cav

    What do you do in the net for Thursday’s finale? I personally would play Huska as I feel he is just a better goalie and gives us the best chance to do damage. If he plays well go with him in playoffs. Of course this seems crazy as I type it because Creel has won 7 in a row! I just think he...

    Golf Trip....

    Thinking about changing up an annual golf trip. Used to go to Myrtle Beach and last few years been going to Florida. Looking for ideas on other places. This is a 4-5 day trip so easy travel is important. Somewhat budget conscious as well so thinking there may be some under the radar options...

    Is it me???

    I generally do not get on announcers/networks but it seems like these guys spent the whole first half explaining how great bridges is and we seemed to be an after thought. I hope we close this out. Also, if we had one knock down shooter we could be really good. Love the defensive intensity.

    Anyone going on Saturday?

    I will be making the trip. Planned long ago to spend several days doing the other Florida activities and then attending the game. Flying out Wednesday. I will say with UCF And USF the travel is pretty easy and cheap. Any idea where the visitor section is? Will be getting tickets on stub...

    Masonius???

    Was at game last night. Happy they won. After horrific effort in first they played light years better. Anyway I was surprised no masonius and seems he did not play last weekend either. Did a search on this board and found nothing recent. Did I miss something?

    Mixed feelings

    Depends on my mood. After 4 games there are a lot of things to be optimistic about and just as many to be pessimistic about. I guess the main thing to feel good about is I have enjoyed watching the games again. On another note I think Lashlee is proving why this was a great career move. To...

    Syracuse Game report

    So I am the one who had a daughter who decided to go to Syracuse over Uconn. I went to visit her this weekend for the first time. My personal feelings aside I of course will always support my daughter. Had not been to the dome since I was about 11 years old (1981). First of all because I...

    Unforeseen byproduct of cancelled game...

    Everyone has an opinion on the USF "situation" this past weekend and those on either side will never be convinced the other side is correct. I will say that for me a byproduct is I dislike our friends from USF more than I did before this all went down. This type of thing can create feelings...

    We averted disaster.....

    A loss would have been awful but we avoided that. I could complain about many things (biggest and loudest would be oline) however I am choosing to stay positive. Cliches I fall back on: We make the most improvement from week 1 to week 2. The systems are new and take time to work out the...

    Updates from practice?

    Is it weird we have not received updates from practices or scrimmage? I am craving information. I guess the press has not been allowed into any practices this week? Why would Uconn football not allow one of their journalism majors disseminate information. I would eat this up as we lead up to...

    OT - Frontier Internet

    BAsed on a thread search there is some information related to this in prior posts but it is a bit dated. I currently bundle my cable/phone/internet with Cox. Honestly the service itself is OK but the internet has been excellent. I am sick of the price though and called direct TV and Dish...

    OT Reducing cable to "basic"

    I am slowly getting to the point where I am considering cutting the cable cord. Currently I am one of the suckers paying a bunch monthly. The main issue I have is live sports that I can not live without. I know things will continue to evolve, but my main question relates to if I went to the...
