That first half of basketball was possibly the most enjoyable 1st half of hoops I've ever seen at UCONN (notwithstanding BET games or NCAA games). It was incredible to see the energy, effort, and intensity of the guys, and fantastic seeing Kromah, Nolan, Giffey and Brimah play so well (of course we expect that out of Boat and Bazz). Great stuff and a really really satisfying win. I guarantee if we played that way New Year's eve, we'd be ranked in the top 20 right now.
I hope this is the kind of effort and intensity that Ollie is able to get these guys to play going forward. It really was fantastic to see...
