Are you UConn basketball only fans or UConn fans.

[HuskyHawk]

This makes more sense because I was surprised you checked "Hockey, baseball, others besides basketball and football"

The options were inadequate unless you chose to pick multiples.

 

[HuskyHawk]

You clearly didn’t get the reference there.

You can wager on the color of the next object thrown on a court. 😉

I think it's best to pay attention to Sophie Cunningham when she's not on the court.

 

[RuffRuff]

Men’s B-B. I mean, go UConn and all that, but it’s the only one I care about or pay attention to.

This. If one of their other teams is in a meaningful televised game, I’ll tune in. All in on men’s hoops.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Well, maybe @Deepster, if he were being honest with himself.

Not sure he likes it, but there's no doubt he has a strong emotional attachment combined with a strong preference for it being discussed in its proper place.

 

[BlueandOG]

I love UConn and the state of Connecticut. I cheer for anything having to do with either, and trash talk all others.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Although I selected Men's & Women's basketball only, that's primarily because I don't have strong enough feelings toward any of the others to follow them or consider myself a fan.

That said, last season I watched 3 or 4 football games on TV, which was more than I watched any other team. My default is to want UConn teams to defeat its opponent in any sports matchup.

I moved from casual WBB fan to watching every game during Paige Bueckers's freshman season, based on an enthusiastic early season recommendation made in The Boneyard. Prior to that, I pretty much only watched the major OOC games and the NCAAs starting with the E8. I'm very eager to watch both basketball teams in the coming season, and will be keeping track of the football team's progress.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

I didn’t go to UConn so I can’t really say I follow all the sports. I am of course a Men’s and Women’s Basketball fan, and I do root for the Football team as well. If I see that they are in a big Hockey/Baseball game I will watch and support as well, just obviously doesn’t matter as much as the other sports.

 

[aburks41]

Men's basketball is and always will be #1 for me.

Then football after that.

I'll sometimes watch baseball or hockey games but maybe like 2-3 a year. I follow their socials though and keep tabs on how they're doing.

Don't really care about the other sports but I will always root for them to win because they're UConn

 

[Jaydumo20]

I love it all actually. I even root for the medical research department and the school's sustainability initiatives. I'm not kidding.

 

[2014DualCs]

By true fan standards, men’s basketball. Legit psychotic about it still on a random Tuesday or Thursday night. But I’m always tuning into big wbb and football games. Once baseball gets to playoffs I’m usually tuning in. Hell, uconn rowing could show up and I’m paying attention.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Will watch every men’s basketball game, try to watch most football games (but won’t plan my schedule around it), watch the big women’s basketball games if I can. That’s pretty much it.

 

[CL82]

Yep completely missed it.

 

[80shusky]

I don't have an only fans. You're welcome.

 

[Scoe]

I added a choice just for the hell of it.

 

[Horatio]

UConn Men’s and Women’s basketball fan. I don’t watch as many women’s games because they’ve been so dominant. I barely touch the women’s side of the yard. It’s a little different over there. The bouncers are a lot stricter. They smell outsiders immediately.

 

[RuffRuff]

UConn Men’s and Women’s basketball fan. I don’t watch as many women’s games because they’ve been so dominant. I barely touch the women’s side of the yard. It’s a little different over there. The bouncers are a lot stricter. They smell outsiders immediately.

They’re also likely an average age of 83.4.

You want to spend time there you go embracing your T level drops into the subterranean.

 

[NowInStorrs]

Hypothetically all UConn sports but practically speaking UConn men's and women's basketball and football.

 

[Waquoit]

For me it was destiny. When I was six, my grandmother gave me a clock radio for Christmas. Maybe my favorite present ever. That was the one thing I could control at that age. I could put it on any station I wanted. So when we got home from Christmas a few days later, I put it on the basketball game because I was already a big fan.The Hartford Caps of the EBL.

The next night, the UConn Huskies were on. And I was a fan ever since, next year will be 60 years. I’m an alum and I’m from the state, I support all the teams. We’ve even gone to a handful of softball games because we met the coach at the roadshow, and was very impressed.

 

[87Xfer]

None of the poll options fit for me. I'm men's BB first by a lot, then WBB and Football about equally.

 

[Ctedgeman]

Born and raised in CT. I played a few different sports growing up, but basketball was always #1 even though I was short and sucked at it. It was the only sport I cared to follow and so UConn was my team as a kid by default. I don't think I would call myself a bandwagon fan since I've been a fan since 91-ish, but I just don't really care about any other sports, whether it be UConn/college or professional.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

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.

I'm surprised casual fan wasn't an option.

Personally, I follow most UConn sports programs and in all candor, if we had a tiddly winks team I'd prefer seeing them win than lose.

 

[JLW]

Hoops, football and any team doing well

 

[UConNick]

I like to say if there was a UConn chess match on TV, I’d tune in and watch from the edge of my seat.

While my top sports are men’s hoops, baseball, football, and women’s hoops, in that order, if there’s some kind of completion and UConn is competing in it, I’m automatically invested.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

I put "MBB only" simply because while I root for WBB, football, hockey, baseball, watch games on TV and catch a few games live, my attention to those teams are nowhere near as close to my MBB fandom.

I'm a obsessive UConn MBB fan, but not the case with the other programs. However, based on anyone's definition of a fan, I guess I qualify for the other teams too. MBB "fanatic", other sports "fan".

 

[Edward Sargent]

I to am a fan of the University of Connecticut. Two years at Stamford Branch and two years on campus when our sports teams were no where near what they are now but I got a great education that set me up for life. If UConn is playing on TV I will watch regardless of the sport. I also follow UConn grads as pros in all sports.
