It must be tough being a cuse fan

And the 6 OT was amazing regardless of outcome.

It was amazing while it was going on.

However, I don't even like to think about it now. Still too raw.

Not me. Fine with it. We lost. It happens. Rather it happen in an amazing game to a great team. I'm happy we were a part of that. The 4 makes all those way easier to shrug off.

4, again, only number that matters.

Wow. No UCONN games mattered until '99?

The game was a footnote in a season in which we made the final four. Had Cuse gone on to win the BET, then it would have meant a little more. They lost, got bounced in the sweet 16, while we made a run to Detroit. It's a good game for ESPN Classic, but it was a BET quarterfinal.

KeA made it evident he was a leader on his freakin' official visit to Storrs. Bone up on your Husky facts, man.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure half that list was recruited knowing they had natural leadership instincts.

I was with college buddies in the SU alumn section wearing a UCONN tee. Amazing, but easily one of the most emotionally draining experiences of my life. At the end of the game, not only was everyone on the court spent, but half the spectators, the cool ones at least, were covered in beer and sweat too.

At no point did I say games didn't matter. But ask any player or coach, you play for championships. Above all else that's the point, winning the ones that matter most. All those losses were all made inconsequential by those 4 wins.

We all know it is all about the titles. Any coach or player on any team will tell you that.....

And my guess is any team in America with precious few exceptions would like to trade fortunes with UConn, straight up.

Sadly though, as we all know, I doubt there is a single ADept. in the P5 that would trade fortunes with us. Its a good thing ADept's don't equal championships and fans!

Haha.
This is priceless. A good friend of mine who is a Syracuse grad and worked at ESPN had a meltdown on my Facebook page today when the name Boeheim came up:

"He's the worst---and I've got 30 years of it. He's a terrible game coach---and a total chump. He coaches not to lose---and then does just that. He totally lost it in a game vs. Duke---got two techs when the game was still within reach. Didn't apologize. Bigtime coward and fraud. He's also the guy that lashed out at the victims of Bernie Fine's molestation....not a joke. It happened. Make no mistake--he's the worst. JoPa Lite."
