Gotta give welsh credit he got better as the year went on, i remember in a ncaat preview show he picked us as a dark horse to win it all. But definitely stinks overall as an analyst lol. Atleast he isn't steve lappas

"yeah they won the national championship and will have the best backcourt in the country again, and yeah they have some really good recruits and transfers coming in.... but they're still not the best team in new england." (as the banner is being revealed)

Welsh was the same negative ass dude at the end of the year calling the Rutgers game, when he acted like Bazz and Boat were about to shoot a fair one during a game, as he was when he first started calling UConn games during the ban year. Can't stand him, just negative point after negative point all game long.

What kind of coverage should we expect? Like live look ins or basically a full scrimmage or what?

This may be nitpicking on my end, but I wish they could come up with a more UConn-centric name for this other than "First Night".
Even just "Husky Mania" is a thousand times better.

I know I must be getting old, but what does trill mean? Is it similar to saying something is "ill" (as in cool?)

Thanks in advance...

Bah. Nobody cares about the WWE.
lol there is a serious WWE following. I have friends who have only started likely professionally wrestling once they became adults, which is strange. They find it a great source of 'entertainment'. my fantasy draft got pushed back because of a monday night raw

Because dunk contests have devolved into the most boring non-spectacles in sports. I'd rather watch a quiz show. Now, if you mixed the two so that you had to answer a question while dunking...then you might be onto something.

Keep that in mind when they play Simon Says in a few weeks.

You may want to consider new friends.

Have you been there to watch the quiz show? You may think twice about that one........

Then again if you watched the last dunking contest where Maya and Tina were trying to dunk you may want to watch Simon Sez and quiz shows!
