Being an idiot should bother you, but based on your posts my guess is it does not.
You’re the idiot if you take the time to go to a profile and looks at posts. Lol that you think you have a point or are clever

After it became clear Bouk was working to get back, my thought during the Bouk absence has always been the games without Bouk will not matter.

I enjoyed the tone of the announcers. Both Raff and Lavin in the post-game.

Pre Game Tone: Can Connecticut turn it around? They currently are on the outside looking in. But they have opportunities to play their way in.

Post Game Tone: Well.... that's obviously a tournament team.....
 
We need to take care of business the rest of the way. I’m confident we will. But anybody who doesn’t think we’re a tournament team at full strength doesn’t know that much about basketball. There’s a reason we were in the top 25 before Bouknight went out.
 
Lol. Who is the one looking at profiles.
I do not need to look at a profile to see what you post in threads, that would be common sense for most to understand, but that appears to be lacking here.

More looking than I’m interested in doing. Glad you think that’s a valuable use of your time.
 
People insulting each other on a message board brings me back to 2007-2009 before real social media toxicity took off. If someone doesn't agree with you or says something mean to you, just ignore it lol.
I don't have any beef with HeGotGame but I do notice many of his posts are of the caustic variety in response to another poster and their opinions. It's probably best in this type of forum not to always engage posters like that, although I will admit I've had my fair share of them. So I agree with you it's best just to let that kind of stuff slide off your back and move on to the next thread and forget about it.
 
With Bouk it's a different team and is capable of damage to anyone. Without him, not.
 
I mean if you really break it down , if we lose to nova and win our next four games , we should be in -even if we lose in the first round the Big East tournament - if we win three of our next five games, we’re gonna have to probably win a game or two in the Big East tournament -anything less than three wins in the regular season from here on out and we’re probably going to have to get to the big East final to get in. The real question is will the committee take into consideration how different we look now that bouk is back? Nova game huge. I’m gonna say early line is nova by 5? Maybe 4?
 
If we win 3 of the next 5, regardless of who the wins come from, we will be 13-7 overall and 10-7 in the Big East, 3 Covid pauses, 9-3 with Bouk, 4-4 without Bouk, I think we are in. If we finish 10-7 in the Big east not sure how we are NOT in. I know this is not a normal year, but historically better than .500 in conference has been a lock

3-2 and a loss in first round of BET we're on the outside looking in. Win 1 in BET and we're sweating; win 2 and we're in.

Let's just take care of Nova on Saturday so instead of "Will we make the tournament?" the question down the stretch becomes "What seed can we get?"
 

Rothstein says
"UConn (10-5) doesn’t just resemble a team that can make the NCAA Tournament next month when it’s at full strength; it resembles a team that no one will want to play in the NCAA Tournament."

Currently, multiple paths ..

1. Beat Villanova. I think this punches our ticket.
2. If we lose to Nova, win 4 of the next 4 and 1 BE Tourney game
3. If we lose to Nova, win 3 of the next 4 and 2 BE Tourney games
4. If we lose to Nova, win 2 of next 4 and get to BE Finals
5. If we lose to Nova, win 1 of next 4 and win the BE tourney
