Arizona State and Uconn

[Husk04ies]

Would you guys want to see this matchup eventually?

I was literally thinking about this today before I saw this. What a great “home and home”. Do theirs in Phoenix, ours in MSG. Major network would pick it up. Huge publicity. And no way we lose to that scrub program.

I think the brothers have talked about not wanting to play each other if they can help it. I may be wrong though.

 

[LIuconn]

Would be an all-time coach’s facial expression game

 

[dannyHAM]

Would love the matchup. They always end up being pretty good and have a solid recruiting class coming in highlighted by 5 star Josh Christopher. Don’t know why the AC is trying to hold it up.

 

[HobokenHusky]

Would hope we are trying milk a football home and home out of it

 

[xclamations]

My homestate school vs my alma mater... yes please

 

[Waquoit]

ASU has no juice.

Assistant coaches don't hold up scheduling. If his boss wanted it done, it would happen.

Let them build their brands before we settle down with Michael Jackson and his popcorn. Licking my chops! It will happen in 2-5 years.

edit: would prefer to be on opposite sides of the 2K classic or something that has more meaning than a forced matchup. Let it happen organically.

 

[UconnU]

No, you’re right.

Goodman with bad info here? This matchup doesn’t make sense for a number of reasons, unless it’s for like charity or something.

ASU is gonna be top 25 next year if Martin comes back. Would be an amazing game all around.

Bobby has turned into a hell of a recruiter. They have 2 five stars coming in, including top 10 Josh Christopher, and they just landed Luther Muhammad who was one of the best available transfers. They could be really good.

Exactly. I'd specifically only want to play them next year.

 

[alphasigko]

I would love to see it as I graduated from both UConn (2x) and ASU (1x)!

Someone on twitter said Muhammad wanted to go to Seton Hall but they couldn't make room for him.

Not sure that Bobby will be there in 5 years as I bet he will be Coach K's eventual successor.

If true that’s no good. Holding the scholarship for Sanogo?

Not wrong...

>>So don’t expect Arizona State and UConn to meet anytime soon. Dan says he’d be OK with it, as long as it’s for a good cause, like the Never Forget Tribute Classic, in which UConn will face Florida State on Dec. 8 in Newark. But Bobby’s not so sure.

“I wouldn’t, unless I had to, if we were both fortunate enough to be in the NCAA tournament,” he said. “We don’t take losses too well. We care about each other too much.”<<

How so??

It was a joke.
