Just genuinely curious where people's interests are regarding UConn's sports, I get we're a basketball school and we have bandwagon fans, I don't love bandwagon fans but I get that it comes with the territory of winning. What are the UConn sports you most root for.

Baseball & Hockey equally
Women's basketball
Men's soccer (would be higher if we were good like the old days)
Then whatever. It's nice if Field Hockey wins titles but I don't watch.
 
I have no connection to the state or the school, so I’m a UConn mbb and wbb fan. I’ve taken to somewhat rooting for the other sports just because, but I don’t really care other than basketball.

PS I won’t call myself a “bandwagon” fan because at 11 years old when I just started loving and following ball, I fell in love with Donyell Marshall.

In Western New York, no one even knew who UConn was so I was way ahead of any bandwagon.

I saw him on the USA Today all-American cover in the grocery store, knew Montross, Kidd, Grant Hill and Glenn Robinson, but this Marshall guy had a cool name and cool look and I instantly became a fan.
 
I doubt you are going to see someone who likes “women’s basketball only”, answer a poll on the men’s basketball board.

Lol. That isn't even an option on the poll.

This makes more sense because I was surprised you checked "Hockey, baseball, others besides basketball and football"
 
All UConn all the time. I follow and root for all of them to varying degrees, but my fandom started with men's basketball and men's soccer around '77 or '78 @ about 10 years old.
 
Big fan of the University of Connecticut. It's a great university in the state I live in. Love to hear young kids tell me they're going there. I have met a lot of people in business in my career who went there and the university can be proud of them. As a senior I am meeting more of them in the medical field and for that I am grateful.

I only follow the men's basketball and it is a year round veritable obsession. Love the excitement of college hoops. It's hard to get into the men's baseball the way George Springer mauls the Yankees. He's a real gamer.
 
I'm pretty much all in on mens basketball since I was 10 years old (47 now), watch every game and keep with recruiting. I'll watch football occasionally throughout the season, and the women's team I'll watch some final four games. I think I'll watch a few innings of the baseball when I see it on. Never watched or actively rooted for any of the other sports.
 
I watch all the men’s and women’s games and attend a few of each per year. I follow hockey and both soccer teams. I cautiously pay attention to football.
