I love this team. Period.

Kevin Ollie. Shabazz Napier. Ryan Boatright. Niels Giffey, DeAndre Daniels, Tyler Olander, Omar Calhoun, RJ Evans...........Nothing but winners. When Ollie had them together at the end, i almost cried. Honestly...

Big balls all of them.......Omar - wow!!

 

[CardiacKemba]

Completely agree.

 

[Jax Husky]

Yeah, they may not be the most talented, may miss layups, may not be able to rebound, but they sure do have a ton of heart. Very fun team to watch. Night and day from last season.

 

[ConnHuskBask]

This team just has guts. They make me really proud every time they take the court.

Oh, can we please extend Ollie another, let's say, 25 years?

 

[djct1999]

For all the negative stuff going on, this team is simply a pleasure to watch. Win or lose, they leave it on the court.

Just want to take a moment and throw Nolan in there too... He fought tonight and his contribution was felt on the boards. He didn't always get them but his tips cost cuse some bunny layups and dunks.

 

[BugsyCT]

Good for them. Good for them. A gritty, hard-working bunch that earned an excellent team win tonight. Sad that it's the last BE game in this rivalry, but it couldn't have ended better for the Husky faithful. Most enjoyable win of the year.

We are STILL UConn!!!

this year really has been a pleasant surprise. My respect for Kevin Ollie continues to grow and grow

 

[UConnDan97]

The team, the crowd, the coach, the HOF former coach on the side, and Musberger with the call. Everything was perfect. Simply fantastic!!!

 

[jdb50]

The crowd energy start to finish was great to see. We had the 18 turnovers but the team showed alot of patience tonight on offense, didn't look flustered very often. Credit the coaching staff as the players were ready for that zone.

 

[SHS72]

Could not agree more. Kids were great tonight. Coach is definitely a keeper. It's going to be real tough not to see us in big east or tourney, but it is what it is...next year can't come soon enough.

Phil will be a solid part of the rotation from here on out.
Phooey on those who suggested he was a waste of a scholarship!

 

[joober jones]

Nolan did grab 5 boards for us and blocked a shot as well. Not a bad day at the office.

 

[HobokenHusky]

Having two guys as quick and ballsy as Bazz and Boat is so much fun to watch. The way they both slipped into the middle of the zone today was a thing of beauty, we should enjoy it while we can.

Pains me to think about what we could do with these two and some legit traditional UConn bigs, w/ giffey and DD playing on the wing, rotating OC in. Would be something.

 

[Dogbreath2U]

This has been an amazingly good year....pretty much a shockingly good year. Whatever else happens, this group has become a great Husky team.

This team has an amazing family-type love. They are a joy to watch, and tonight, I was smiling ear to ear and froze the TV on the shot of KO and all the players around him just to snap a picture (although you couldn't see my fave Shabazz in the back, sadness). I am so happy for Omar and the other freshman that they got to experience a REAL UCONN game, as the loudness/excitement/fan support/attendance this year doesn't seem to be on par with past years. I wish I could have been there. I believe they get pumped up by the fans and it inspires them to kick a. With the happiness I (we) feel tonight (as I said on another thread, I now feel complete!), we need to hang on to it and remember this feeling when we get all upset about less "winning" game play! Thanks guys, for beating them in this most satisfying last game. It warms the cockles of my heart. hehe. <3
