We expect to be in the tournament every year.

We expect to be in the tournament every year.

I see your expectations and raise them. I expect to win a national championship every year.

Benedict will meet with Ollie after season and talk about "how we can be supportive of what he's trying to do." #UConn

More Benedict (1/2): "We didn’t have type of season we expect to have at #UConn. Coach Ollie and I have had discussions about that ..."

David Borges‏ @DaveBorges 6m 6 minutes ago
Benedict (2/2): "... none of us are happy with the outcome. But, there’s a reality to this season.”

Buy him a 6'8", 245-pound power forward.

 

[gtcam]

We expect to be in the tournament every year.

Isn't UConn playing in a tournament this coming week?

 

[ctchamps]

Buy him a 6'8", 245-pound power forward.

Injury resistant!

 

[mauconnfan]

Buy him a 6'8", 245-pound power forward.

Is there any Grad transfers from Auburn?

 

[uconngb]

Buy him a 6'8", 245-pound power forward.

Get us out of this hell-hole of a conference.....I beg you!!

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

A few years prior to AD Dave's arrival, Auburn bought a big part of a national championship in a 6'5" 245 QB. PF, QB ... national championship!

 

[Edward Sargent]

Buy him a 6'8", 245-pound power forward.

with good knees

 

[husky99]

We need a new conference logo....

 

[king conn]

Buy him a 6'8", 245-pound power forward.[/QUOTE

Or, he could just recruit one.

 

[huskyharry]

Buy him a 6'8", 245-pound power forward.

Who has great hands, can pass well, boxes out hard and finishes well at the hoop!

[HooperScooper]

Buy him a 6'8", 245-pound power forward.

He'd come to UConn and get a concussion.

All talk, he said same thing about Diaco, if someone better is available, you better believe he pulls the trigger next year.. maybe not this but if if next year is, yeah there's a change... kids got better??? Was he watching the same mess we did...

 

[BlueDogs]

Denial is the first stage of grief followed by anger.. this is intolerable and disgraceful. A 30 year low point and arguably lower. This garbage remains acceptable until enough say it isn't.

 

[3rdbass]

Funny it doesn't seem to have impacted the players Cincy is putting out on the floor. No doubt next year will be a huge year for KO. If we repeat this year and don't make the tourney he should be out or at least on the hot seat.

 

[Palatine]

This conference is beating the cr#p out of us. You want out. Win it. Do what Cinny is doing. Do what Houston and SMU are doing. Don't put awful teams onto the field.

god you're vile... these attempts to ignore the fact we had three players not play this year at all two of then being two of the best players on the team add that on to the fact that we've only had a handful of games when we've had a healthy 8 players... for crying out loud we've had games when we've had 6 players. and yes the players have improved minus brimah and purvis. I know you troll and I keep taking the bait... I'll wait for your buddy yukon to come over and defend you then give your post a like

I would argue put players that can't get hurt onto the court

Exactly, it 4 years we have only finished in the top 3 of this awful conference once. Just once. What does that say about UCONN basketball right now?

HUH KF improved this year. Wish we had him another year. Don't let the last two games haze that KF has been a rock this year. AB not so much.
