Watching on the TV it just sounded like the mixing was messed up. Whenever the UConn chants started, the announcers were lowered and the ambient sound increased.

Maybe it was just the TV feed. All I could hear were a few random cheers other than after UConn did something good. The whole idea of having a hostile crowd is a lot of noise before the team does something good.

Again, maybe it's the feed, and if that's the case Fox doesn't have a good product. In fact the lack of replays is noticeable and flat out sucks. I find myself having to rewind it constantly to see what happened. IMO, just a horrible product.
 
Anyone else noticed the mods deleting posts here? What’s going on? WTF?
I posted that UConn might have set a big east all-time tournament record for the least number of free-throw attempts, and my post gets deleted? I mean WTF!

Seriously, is cancer culture alive and well here on the boneyard?

I was at the game and must say I didn’t see that at all. Think people need to get past the “everyone is out to get us” mantra. First off, it’s not true. And secondly, it’s just lame.

No free throws for first 34 minutes of game. I rest my case your honor. Karaban was without question in shooting motion with 4 seconds left in first half
 
Solid effort on back-to-back nights. That’s encouraging. We really controlled both games. My two takeaways: 1) Mullins is so much more effective when he’s moving without the ball. He was great at staying active tonight. 2) I’m one of many who believe that playing Silas and Mal together for 5-10 minutes per game is a great look for us. It gives Silas a break from having to handle the ball, especially against teams who play aggressive on-ball defense. Plus, they’ve been really good together. I’m psyched for tomorrow. Should be fun.

Your post was never deleted, and it's called cancel culture, not cancer culture.

Did UConn set the all-time record for the least number of free throws in a Big East conference tournament game? I thought I heard the announcers say that the record was four free throws.

Totally agree on Silas and Malachi playing together.

I was not at the game and it was poor officiating. You seem to think that being at the game gives you a more "real" take on the officials? It does not. Close has nothing to do with it. It is the view you have. I was watching on a monitor. Think. There is a reason refs in all sports got to the "monitor" to clear up calls. Refs are even closer than you to the play and they are the ones who missed calls. And while I was watching a hundred miles away, my views were not bad, considering.

Why was the AK foul not a shooting foul before the half? Why was GT allowed to push TR out of bounds and not get called? Why was TR triple teamed under the basket with no call against GT in the first half, and early in the second half they call a touch foul on the GT player (GT fans would be rightly irate)? With all the contact between Silas and the GT player that led to the double foul (determined only after going to the monitor, BTW) how was all other contact between GT and UConn players, allowed? Won't mention FTA disparity. No, I will. UConn shot its first FT with 6+ left in the GAME. I think it was a record.

I am not one who says they are "out to get us", so I wont respond to that straw-man. You misunderstand what the ref complaints are about. Lame? Right. Nothing is more lame than apologizing for a person, who will tell you to your face, they have an impossible job getting it right.

A lot of good and what's important we won and advanced.

With that said, what's up with the crowd. That had to be the most underwhelming and quietest BET Semifinal UConn crowd I've ever heard. Hope it's better tomorrow night.

Guessing the end of the game was hard to be pulled into. Really slow and choppy thanks to the refs.

I’m convinced these Big East teams intentionally muck up games to give themselves a better shot at beating top opponents. They played us and St. John’s really close because neither of us could pull away.
 
Nice to see a team just sleepwalk to a 16 point BET win. Sleepwalk probably isn't the right word but most of the team was going through the motions and there was never a doubt we'd win

It's tough with the double header. Half the people don't stay. Tomorrow will be packed and loud.

The team just won to advance to the championship game, and somehow the focus is on one player taking another’s minutes.

I know this is the internet but it’s still strange that this team is 29 and 4, has been in the top 5 by NCAA standards all season and gets as little respect from its fanbase, and seems to produce as little joy, as this team does.

No matter. Time to win a Big East championship
