My wife thinks I love UConn hoops more than her. Hard to convince her otherwise. Naturally I refer to the team as we or us. She said to me last year “ I have been meaning to ask you, what number are you?”
I loudly applaud your love for UConn Mens basketball
However, I bow to your better half for her question to you! One of my peeves is when people call teams as we or us. Bravo!!!! I have been posing that exact question to others for years.

I know a mutual person with connections to Abdou who doesn’t think he wants to stay in state. Guess we’ll see
Based on the person who posted about the assistant coach, and his quotes about us previously, I’m sorta doubting this. Long way to go until we find out.

This isn’t to be taken as gospel. It was his opinion. Don’t know how or why he formed that opinion. But he’s close to the family. We’ll see. I hope he’s wrong.

Toure was far too keen at first. Now he has to play off his options so UConn and the NIL people don't take him for granted.

Plus, he does need to keep his options open. A lot can change in the next year.

I want to see him come to UConn as local players dream of playing here.

I hope Hurley and his staff recruit him hard as I love rooting for the local player

While fans don’t play (obviously), they do make an impact with their energy and support. That’s why coaches and players frequently remark about how the passion of their home crowd helped feed them. There’s a very good reason why teams are better at home than on the road.

4 of the starting 5 have the same last names? All related or just like smith, jones, brown in usa?
The second explanation. The Fulani ethnicity, largest or second largest in Guinea depending on who you talk to, has 6 commonly used last names.
