I may be influenced by a lousy day, but that sucked.

I liked Mississippi Valley State, they didn't back down from anything. I thought they were tougher than us despite being so outclassed all over the court.

Fingers crossed Donovan and Castle are healthy.

 

[auror]

Only 46 fouls? Felt like 90.

 

[aburks41]

Clingan's Free Throws are going to be a huge problem. He cannot be a 50% FT shooter if we want to win another title

 

[husky429]

No game with that many fouls is fun to watch but we got the job done.

Cam is a ridiculously talented player.

Bench needs to step up and Clingan need to make FTs.

 

[uconnsouth]

Need some depth pieces to step up. Considerable drop off right now

 

[ibleedhuskyblue]

Felt like every play was a foul, or a ridiculous spinning shot made by them.

 

[NC_Uconn_Fan]

An ugly 30+ pt win. We really need to clean things up against real competition.

 

[JakeTheDog]

That was painful. But props to Cam for showing out.

General rule, if you are a better athlete than shooter you should probably shoot more 2s than 3s. Wish Solo would put it on the deck and get to the rim more.

Clingan’s FT shooting has to get better.

We definitely missed Castle some in this game. Hope he gets back soon. He’s the kind of player that makes it easier for everyone else.

Good to see Cam answer the bell the first time he was really “needed”.

I liked the ball movement. I didn't like Clingan playing all those minutes. And I hate watching him get beat up.

Yes, I forgot to mention Cam. He's just awesome offensively and gives us the best starting 5 in the country. Not too concerned about anything but if I want to be concerned in order it's Donovan's health, Donovan getting his ft's from below 50% to over 60%, and the bench.

How many minutes do you think Clingan played?

He should forget about 3’s until he 70 percent, pathetic

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

Feel like defense has been pretty poor last 3 games

At least solo would take a shot. Ross and greek need to shoot or sit down.

 

[wingsfan055]

Clingan better get his FT % to "passable" levels or it will definitely hurt his draft projections.

100%. I really don't like seeing Clingan get beaten up like that against an unskilled team who plays really hard. I know coach is on a strict minutes plan with him but watching what was going on out there I wanted him out of the game.

He's nowhere near 50% right now.

Shooting 50% would be a huge step up on performance.

XL Center media room.

Yeah I would like them to get more aggressive in general too. Greek was wide open and swung it to Karaban who had a player on him on one play.

 

[xclamations]

Hey gang. My bullet points of tonight's game:

Hope Castle only misses this game.
Dolo ball! Played pretty solid in my eyes.
Really looking forward to Stewart too. Gonzaga didn't recruit him? The hell.

Killa Cam! Im a believer.
3pt shot% better tonight. Right on time for Indiana.

4 of 5 starters really need to be on the floor with 4 minutes left up 32? (injury precautions. & Clingan winces not longer after i said this out loud i swear)

Could this team somehow be a better passing team than last season? it's too soon but it looks like it could be as good, i hope.

sunday

Really disappointed in this so far, and I don't think it's too early to say this is going to be a concern and that he should have improved much more than this in the offseason.
