Message: [QUOTE="Pudge, post: 2038830, member: 364"] I think the answer is obvious ... and has been right in your face on this boneyard postings. We were hurt by the sanctions and recruiting handcuffs as Calhoun exited. We plugged with Grad Transfers and, frankly, we had a Coach that figured out Roles extraordinary well. ONLY NOW ... as we entered 2016-2017, did we have a three class true recruiting harvest. I think WE (fans that read and think this ... instead of just attending games as entertainment) should have seen the difficulty of this year. UConn does get placed as a Blueblood in Preseason rankings. And, that top 20 is hard for us to accept if we aren't placed there ... and I guess we should expect not to be there in Oct. 2017. But, with a comeback from injuries, we should be far better. (just need a rim protector defender type) And I love this "dominant" regular season chant. WE WON National Championships. Ok ... let's throw them back. They were not after playing well in our regular season. [/QUOTE]
