In 2018, Dan Hurley took over a dumpster fire of a program

5 years later, he won a national championship
1 year after that, he’s ranked AP #1

Next up is a BE championship, and hopefully many many years of success to come

I’m sure Hurley will treat this as another day in the office. But I hope everyone in the program takes at least a little bit of time to celebrate

None of this would have happened without going home to the Big East and getting Danny. I hope the skeptics that wanted us to join the B12 for football reasons finally shut up.

Come on, don't be overly dramatic. UConn was not a "dumpster fire of a program." The program was on a downward trajectory and changes were needed. And the AD made a quick move to stop the downward trajectory.

UConn was only 2 years removed from an NCAA Tournament appearance. Only 4 years removed from a national championship. That's so ridiculous calling them a dumpster fire. You want dumpster fire? Go look at what is going on in Louisville.
 
#1 -Nice accomplishment for this team. Very pleasantly surprised by the AP vote.

In the big picture it is not all that important but some recruits will notice. And it will have an positive affect on the overall perception of the program. Savor the flavor.

We were like a trash can fire
 
Here's the kind of sentence that must be driving Duke's AD crazy: "The Southeastern Conference was next with four teams, followed by the Big Ten and Big East with three, the Atlantic Coast and American Athletic conferences with two, and one each for the Pac-12, Atlantic-10 and Mountain West.
 
Finally. We were close last year. Who’d of guessed it would be this year after all the talent we lost.

Perhaps Cooper Flagg? Wonder if he has buyer remorse.

Good, we deserve it. I'm glad to see the commentators who were looking for any excuse to give it to someone else are in the minority.

True, but they are playing really good basketball. Earlier in the season some Seton Hall fans were questioning whether Holloway was up to the job.

They need to step their NIL game up and they need to keep Holloway. They just put the shovels in the ground on their new basketball practice facility a few months ago so that should help some...

Just put a bigger target on our backs. I like being disrespected :)





PS: With Clingan, we're the best team, so there's that

I’m more impressed by the length of the shorts in 2009

I think there was a fairly famous (or "boneyard trending") topic about shorts a few years ago, someone can correct me if I am wrong. But it was mostly everyone taking the piss out of the OP which resulted in much hilarity.

“The Big 12 represented almost a third of this Top 25 with a national-best eight teams.”

The SEC was second with four. The Big East has three ranked teams. Nos 1, 17 & 18.

The Big 12 is the nation’s best basketball conference.

You will get no arguments from me on the Hurley part of that statement, so glad we have him.

But why wouldn’t we want our basketball in the best conference?
