UConn debuts at 18. He has 4 Big East teams. He has USC at 14. Who knew when UConn played them that win would be so good on the resume.

18 Connecticut Last week: N/R | Record: 7-1. The Huskies are ranked in this week's AP Top 25, their first appearance since the fall of 2016. Hard to believe. I spoke with Dan Hurley on Saturday evening and he told me to expect more news on star James Bouknight (elbow) sometime this week. At most Bouknight will miss a couple more weeks, but there's a shot it's a shorter-term injury. Bouknight missed UConn's past two games, but the Huskies won both (at Butler, at DePaul) and are interesting, viable and NCAA Tournament-good for the first time in five years.
