NYT Crossword

Today's (8/26/24) NYT crossword has UConn as the answer for one of the clues (52D). I'm sure I'm not spoiling it for anyone in this forum

I'm guessing the creator of the puzzle doesn't know UConn's greatness, else he'd have used a more descriptive clue

I'd have given the clue as "the most dominant college basketball program of this generation", or "the greatest women's college basketball program of all time".

What would you have done?

Ah, I didn't realize the answer was unbearable.
