Hurley is beyond redeemed. We all need to repent for doubting at 14-2. This team is exactly what we thought before then. Total domination in this tournament.

Bah. The doubt didn't really show up until 14-4 after the SJU loss. But the team and Hurley have flipped TWO scripts - the midseason swoon AND the two first round exits. You cannot rebound from those two things any better than this.
 
I would just like to say this Miami team showed nothing but class and great attitudes. After watching the press conference with Coach Larranega, Isaiah Wong, and Jordan Miller, it's tough not to like them. We beat an excellent team tonight, and they lost to a more excellent team. They played with toughness, made a few runs, but we just had too much.

Shots of homemade limoncello in our shot glass from the last time we won it all in Houston made the difference tonight. Alums from 1992-22. Probably should have washed the glass in-between but we were in solidarity with Hawkins and his stomach bug.

I thought Newton was very good tonight against a defender who was allowed to basically rag him with impunity. He’s as underrated a player as we’ve had in a while.

Aside from the skid when he disappeared for a bit, he’s had a very good season. He’s made a lot of big shots, taken care of the ball and played hard. It isn’t easy to do too much more on offense with teammates like Hawkins and Sanogo on your team, they need to eat. It was tough for Tristan to figure out his role. I’m hoping he’ll stick around for next season.

Man, those Miami fans were super confident that Omier would outrebound the entire UConn team, would handle Sanogo in the post, and UConn wouldn’t be able to hold them under 80.

About that…

I must have missed that, when did that happen?

Love this team knew they had it in them when I saw them play with so much hard and determination at the beginning of the season. One fricken more

Absolutely. I hope he gets the word that we'd love to have him back!!!

And to put the icing on the cake --- Revenge is a dish best served cold! We've finally gotten a little vengeance over Larranaga for that 2006 debacle. Of course it's important to me at least because my wife and son both got their degrees from George duck__n Mason.

I have been thinking about this all week.

I am patting myself so let the negative responses fly. First. What a year. Can’t believe we are here again.
It was Adamas game before the Hawkins issue
Karaban would break Miami’s back/hope
Hawk had to give 10pts but we really didn’t need him if-
Joey and alleyne just filled the gap. which happened.
Someone will prob flirt with a triple double( I feel this has been waaaay overlooked as every game someone has a 11-7-9 line) Tristan had that.

Definitely did NOT see

Aj with an empty line…. but his d was legendary.
The line.

No one's mentioned this pretty cool thing. Karraban's 3pt buzzer beater at the half? He did the exact same thing against Gonzaga.
I knew right that then we had it. Love this team.
Let's goooo!

It’s wild to see a UConn team run the best half court stuff in college basketball. That was basically .

They had a couple press breaks that were perfect basketball.
