Bill Raftery was kinda drooling over UConn last night

[WeAreUCONN]

Sir Bill gave the program quite the compliment during last night’s beat down of DePaul.
he was talking about the UConn practices and how extraordinary they must be because of all the talented players on this team. Even when Adams entered the game. Bill said he’s really skilled too!! He seemed amazed at the level of talent of our bench players, Jackson, Carlton, Gaffney, Adams, Akok, Polley.
I agree with Bill. The practices must be intense.

but who is gustavo???

Gustavo was the player of the game. He’s UConn’s secret weapon.

Who knew Senor had a first name? Fair warning: do NOT do a google search on Gustavo Testiculo.

Meet Gustavo Testiculo!

LOL -you beat me to it, I was searching for the pic!

I did the google and got a rather gruesome soccer injury story.

 

[McLovin]

Gustavo Bandito

 

[Waquoit]

Gus was very complementary as well.

 

[RedStickHusky]

You don't suppose Raff was talking to Gus when he said Gustavo, do you? In a Gus, Gusinator, Gusomatic, Gustavo... kind of way?

 

[CL82]

Kind of can feel the mojo building in this thread.

(@Deepster)

Still doomed.

after spending way too much time googling last night trying to figure out this seemingly obscure reference, this is the only thing that makes sense at this point.

 

[RedStickHusky]

If by sense, you mean nonsense...

 

[kobebeanbryant]

gustavo = pepe silvia?

 

[UConn_Top_Dog]

Raftery is a closet UConn fan.

 

[StllH8L8ner]

I've always gotten the sense over the years that he's lowkey a fan of ours.

 

[RedStickHusky]

Raff probably threw one or two back with Calhoun in the day.

 

[Umami Zen]

Is that a bad thing? Has a great eye for talent.

 

[GameTime]

but who is gustavo???

IDK But my guess is he was probably breaking bad.

Raftery is a closet UConn fan.

Nothing closet about it. He loved Calhoun and has loved us since.

this is all starting to come full circle now.

in my searching i have come across dr. gustavo vinagre

he is an orthopaedic sports surgeon who specializes in chinese cupping therapy.

Dr. Gustavo Vinagre › What is “Cupping”?

so it seems that under the guise of a clever double entendre, raf’s remark during yesterday’s game was likely a reference to bouknight’s recent cupping therapy with dr. vinagre, and i would suggest perhaps even a prescient warning that bouknight was about to succumb to painful altercations with said therapy.

“you can book it, Gustavo”
“you can Bouk it, Gustavo”
“you can Bouk it, (Dr.) Gustavo (Vinagre)”

this leads to the inevitable question: was Raf onto something? is this why he was taken off tonight’s broadcast?

Impressive work.

It's a disgrace that Raf got pulled out to the lame Big Ten, and not at his rightful place at the BET.

I think hes also very nastalgic for the big east and just loves seeing us back.
