Congrats to the UConn Men! What a run!

16 Banners will be hanging in Gampel.

The men played well and bring back another NC to UConn. Good job!

Newton was big-time!

Final championhip game:
UConn men 5-0
UConn women 11-1

16-1? Yikes!

I wouldve liked another dual championship with the women but the men winning is the greatest consolation I could ask for. UCONN is still basketball capital of the world.

I said way back in the middle of summer that Uconn would win the national championship. Of course i was talking about the girls.

Yeah so close to a third dual, but the women will go get #12 next year.

UConn men's bball program is firmly among the elite. Now tied for 4th on all-time most national championships:

UCLA - 11
Kentucky - 8
UNC - 6
UConn - 5
Indiana - 5

 

[and one]

To complete that list... Duke - 5

There’s always next year. 2004, 2014 … 2024 looks pretty good to me.

I am a fan of the women's team, but the men winning the NC makes me feel much better, especially since I know that my girls are all friends with the guys.

One of the things I love about the women's team are the bench reactions. Women, take note of Donovan Clingan, the big man has next level skills in that area...so infectious.

 

[hoopsfan22]

So UConn men's and women's basketball has won 16 of the last 56 national championships if my math is right.

I LOVE seeing the men successful. As they say, everyone eats!! So happy to get #5 and with such a dominant performance. Fully cemented our blue blood status.

I’m gonna enjoy the off season.

I guess I can live with one BB championship this year! Congratulations Husky men! You’re well deserving of this grand stage!!

 

[darrell]

I hope a certain group of women are inspired.

I know a chair that's fixin' to get danced on.

I'm so happy, UConn wins a natty. It's all going up in the same rafters. I cooked a nice steak with red wine and im enjoying all of this!

UConn Women and Men both starting preseason 23/24 as #1!

 

[CTtoSanDiego]

while I would have chosen a women's NC over a men's, I would have chosen a men's NC over a 15 consecutive FF for the women. So I'm a very happy UConn alum!

A little sloppy but so dominant that it didn’t matter. Basketball capital of the world.

Jaml is right-on about Clingan's bench attitude. When he lifted Coach Hurley way up,...just
loved it. An off-season of work for him might well lead to something special come November...
on the court.
