Happy birthday Donovan

[husky429]

Freshman in 2011. Didn't have a major yet. Playing college basketball. Took 500 3s every day after practice. I could shoot the damn rock back then... never played. Lol. My defense was not made for D2.

Touched a basketball for the one of the first times in almost 3 years yesterday and it was ugly, lol. I can still hit FTs and 3s at a solid rate and pass the ball better than just about anyone.... but I can't for the life of me dribble or finish at the rim. Lost the touch.

Burning a couch in the quad after beating OSU in the final four '99. And probably listening to limp bizkit against my will and eating... O'Brien potatoes???

I was 19 in 1969 spent the summer in Navy bootcamp.

I was a freshman at UConn. I guess Clingan and I have one thing in common.

Me too.

Feb 1970 for me. Had already won the draft lottery, but stayed around for another year. Dropped out before finals week in Fall 69.

Freshman at Trinity, taking hybrid calculus 1 and 2 at 8am. That’s why I became an Economics major.

Ps. Grew up in Wethersfield when UConn men’s soccer was awesome.

I was a sophomore at UConn. 1985-86. Back in the day the rules for starting elementary school were different. We went 12-16 under Dom Perno, and that was the end of ole Dom. Next season we had Jim Calhoun! And he was even worse, 9-19. Perhaps you can understand why we were so excited when we won the NIT the next year. At least the soccer team was good.

They mentioned last night that today is his 19th birthday.

Looking back, when I was 19 I was a junior at a vocational high school, with plans of joining a long line (Canadian side of my family) of carpenters/builders.

Seeing as though I'm bored, and still haven't gotten to sleep since yesterday, what were you doing when you were 19?

Working at McDonald's, commuting to school. Thought I might be a McDonald's manager although my parents wouldn't let me quit college

They were much smarter than me

Was a sophomore at UConn. Men's BB games in fieldhouse sitting under east basket, football games on freebie hill now the south parking garage, soccer games with no stands, "what's the color of ? Brown!" was a good cheer, ROTC beerfests, too many Rathskellar runs in student union, no meal plan on weekends so Universal Foods for groceries and cooking on 2 burner hotplate in the laundry room, Irma's food truck for cheese burg grinders, toga parties, and quite a bit of pot smoke.

Cheese burg grinders… mmmmm.

I ate way too many of these as a freshman.

I worked as a greenskeeper at a golf course. Other than the low pay and having to start work at sunrise, it was the perfect job.

I turned 19 while watching us win the 2011 National Championship. Unfortunately I watched it at Eastern CT state in the dorms. I transferred to UConn that fall.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Pretty much my exact answer, but it was a double. Watson Hall.

Well, I'm pretty much double your age.
This place is so much better after a good win.
Let's come together and keep riding to victory.

Did you cross paths with Professor Scheuch?
He was the first person who ever took me to a non-UConn college athletic event, a Trinity football game, along with his son who was my classmate.
