Message: [QUOTE="Huskybass, post: 2144601, member: 746"] I guess my perspective is very different than yours. I was a student at UConn from 1983 to 1988. JC and Geno arrived while I was there. I was a campus tour guide, summer orientation leader, resident assistant, member of the track team (briefly), member of a fraternity, on the Student Union Board of Governors, etc. Suffice it to say that UConn has been a big part of my life. I have attended hundreds of home and away games over the years. Every year I have attended many games with the exception of 1992-93 when I lived in California. Whether it was celebrating the 1988 NIT Championship or watching rain fill huge buckets during games at the fieldhouse, I have been there and enjoyed every minute of it. I played pickup against Earl Kelley and became friendly with several of the players from my era. Heck, I just remembered that in my final year or two, I actually got paid $25 per game to be an usher at the football and basketball games. The bottom line is that I love UConn and UConn basketball. I am thrilled with the success UConn has had over the past 30 years. But its not the Championships that I miss. What I miss is being relevant, being in the hunt, seeing highlights of regular season games on Sportscenter, having a bit of a buzz about the program. Hopefully, now you will understand why I have been so disappointed over the past 3 seasons. Its not that I don't care about the program, but rather that I might care too much. [/QUOTE]
