let it go

4-3 in league play is not ideal. I’m usually on Hurley, but our guards just aren’t very good. I think the cumulative +/- for our starters was -40?

Hey at least no one is getting drafted. Maybe we can portal for a point guard next year.

 

[tykurez]

Can we make it 10 years without a road win against a top 25 team?

 

[TheRealKBuks]

We need to find ways to win these games and I believe we will. The toughest stretch of our schedule is now over so we can judge the squad by how they respond.

 

[uconnever]

We better beat each team we lost to when we meet again.

His name is Stephon Castle

Last time UConn has beat a ranked team on the road.

I believe that is more of a trend than an anomaly.

Sure, Sanogo stunk it up but Clingan more than made up for it. Center position was a huge net positive for Huskies tonight

Karabam brought it too. Had four hoops in and around the basket where he went strong to the basket or made put backs.

Jackson had an average game for him.

Newton, Hawkins, Diarra, Alleyne and Calcaterra got destroyed as a group. Nothing on offense and nothing to disrupt Marquette on D.

This was hardest part of sked.

They will be favored to win next seven games and should win next seven.

Another road loss. Went 1-3 last 4 games. Not good at all.

Hawkins is too easy to take out of a game. Same with Sanogo. Double him and he’s a mess again. No one else steps up besides us throwing the ball up to Clingan. Newton was so bad in the 2nd half. Karaban played well but he’s not games changer. So many flaws on this team.

Haven’t beat a tourny team since maybe Oklahoma state if they get in. Iowa State game?

 

[Valleyfan]

Went as expected. Got outplayed at all guard positions. Hawkins had a tough game and can’t create his own shot. Hurleys second team played better than the first team and it might be time to rethink starters/rotation. Clingan is a player. Tough game for Sanogo who can’t recognize double teams fast enough

His name is Stephon Castle

He's not the answer at the 1. He needs another PG with him for defense, mostly.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

This team still has real title aspirations and I’d rather lose now than in March, but we badly need a big road win soon to build some confidence away from home.

However, we didn’t play “badly” in either of the three losses.

How about judging them how they performed to date?

 

[Robo03]

Still need to get down hill. But more importantly get the ball out of Newtons hands and let AJ run the point.

 

[husky429]

I'm going to stick with the positive here: we have a GREAT future in Karaban and Clingan. Another off-season of conditioning and skill work is going to take these guys to all-big east level performance next year.

 

[HuskyFich]

Sanogo: we’ll have him next year
Hawkins: really tough game
Newton: Enigma
Jackson: quiet because everyone else sucked
Calcatera: overmatched
Alleyne: enigma
Diarra: Enigma
Karaban: Good Game

Clingan: Deserves 20+ minutes a game. Idc at this point if Sanogos minutes suffer.

 

[uconnever]

We will not win the Big East regular season title

 

[WeAreUCONN]

Danny constantly gets out coached in most meaningful games.

I have concerns, but we played the 4 other best teams in conference all in a row, 3 of them on the road. We should be 7-3 in the conference after the next 3.

 

[uconntoatl]

Newton/Hawkins/Sanogo yikes

 

[Hey Adrien!]

I'm going to stick with the positive here: we have a GREAT future in Karaban and Clingan. Another off-season of conditioning and skill work is going to take these guys to all-big east level performance next year.

So many of both of their shots were TOUGH shots.

You’re correct.

 

[tentoes4rings]

The guard play is killing this team. Can’t win tough league road games with brutal guard play.

 

[HuskyFich]

He's not the answer at the 1. He needs another PG with him for defense, mostly.

I imagine that can be Jackson?

 

[TheRealKBuks]

Just bought my tickets to the Xavier game.

 

[Giddyup5]

They just executed better down the stretch.

Sanogo played poorly

Perhaps would have liked that zone earlier in the game and go back to man for crunch time.

 

[husky429]

I imagine that can be Jackson?

Jackson isn't going to be guarding the other teams PG every night. We need a real PG, particularly on defense. Someone like Diarra that can hit a shot and give up 7-10 points a game.

 

[Greathusky]

When your best players disappear from the radar on the road, you have to question the toughness of this team.

 

[HuskyFich]

Jackson isn't going to be guarding the other teams PG every night. We need a real PG, particularly on defense. Someone like Diarra that can hit a shot and give up 7-10 points a game.

I’m totally good with someone like Diarra as a backup point guard, as long as our starter can score the rock.

 

[Palatine]

Marquette concentrated on taking away the three and not worrying about Sanogo until he got the ball. And it worked. I think we will see more and more of that.
