A "Just Cuz" Thread

Yeah context matters.

Adams' shot was great.

It tied a quarterfinal game in the AAC tournament.

That's not fair. Context does matter: for a split second, a lot of us thought we were going to the NIT. And then BOOM.

It was a big shot. And a crazy shot. Not nearly as important as a lot of the others, but at the time it seemed like Jalen saved our season. (In hindsight, we probably would have gotten a bid, but we were looking at that game as a must-win.)

And in that context... it's still behind many others.

A shot that forces an OT to maybe get a bid as a low seed doesn't really stack up against a shot that gets you to say.. the Elite Eight.

The biggest/most important sequence from the biggest/most important regular season win in program history. This is the day we became UConn, and Nadav was the guy who pushed us there.

I have NEVER been in a building that was as loud as that night. EVER. That was definitely the night our program turned the page.

90's was the best decade ever! Yes I know I'm biased being 38.

I don't know who made that video but it's beyond ridiculous.

Nothing will ever beat Adams against Cincinnati?

Did Tate George swindle you out of your life savings?

That video has a shot in a regular season game against Gonzaga that comes with 7 seconds on the clock.
