Exactly - if you're a fan, it's through thick and thin. While I'm not "happy" with this season, I don't want Ollie out, and I do want to see how these players progress. Even Duke under K had some pretty bad seasons - maybe not this bad, but probably with fewer injuries.
I wish the fan base were a little stronger, mentally.

It's not the fan base, it's the usual whiners on the Boneyard.

Th

51-46 them

thank you!

Nice drive by Purvis. Keep taking it to them. This game looks so much different when we have our three guards out there. Now if we could get the refs out of the way, we'd be fine...

 

[nomar]

Our fans are booing and our guys are frustrated by the calls but our guys are dumb and lack discipline and are fouling just as often knowing they are in foul trouble in a terribly called game.

I think fatigue has a lot to do with it. These guys must be gassed. 3rd game in 3 days, playing long minutes.

Enoch's got to learn that Clark is going to come back to his right

How about not letting him back you down from 15 feet? That was ridiculous from start to finish.

 

[Jimbo]

I think Rodney might've caught a glimpse of the shot clock at the opposite end of the court right before he threw that miracle shot up.

It's uncanny how we go on a run every single time the refs manage to go two whole minutes without whistling a foul.

 

[uconnell]

everything's a foul. i want the OBE back

I hope you are being sarcastic.

 

[Nostical]

Keep driving to the basket. Thus crowd has to influence these refs after butchering us all game. Keep getting fouled---but make the shots.

 

[nomar]

I hope you are being sarcastic.

Why? I agree with him. Our rock fights against Pitt et al used to toughen us up for the postseason. I truly believe that.

 

[EROCK CONN]

And another bs foul

 

[BUConn10]

Why? I agree with him. Our rock fights against Pitt et al used to toughen us up for the postseason. I truly believe that.

Our coaching staff also still hasn't adjusted our signature defensive style from the BE era to this new officiating style and rules, big reason why it always seems refs are always petty against us.

 

[BUConn10]

Let's keep going to Brimah on the block. The results over the last 4 years have shown that's a smart move.

 

[gtcam]

Short term memories?

If Roscoe's issues you refer to were put into this current team's system and development trajectory he would have had one of his infamous full court heaves with 10 seconds left in play in a tie game, every single game.

An absolutely stupid and insipid statement
A most negative "fan"

It's gonna work next time. Let's keep trying.

Clark has ONE foul.....you gotta be kidding me.

An absolutely stupid and insipid statement

How many times have you watched Purvis step out of bounds or Brimah get a dumb foul he absolutely can't if we want to have a hope as a team.

Get lost McCarthy no one cares about how you feel about our thoughtcrimes.

 

[BlueDogs]

Need somebody to get hot

 

[BugsyCT]

We've had some open looks the last few minutes and haven't hit them.

 

[BUConn10]

Need to go back to Vital until the defense forget about Purvis again.

 

[superjohn]

Vital is a gamer.

 

[UConnDan97]

Keep driving to the inside, fellas....

 

[greydog]

These refs are the worst in NCAA

 

[BlueDogs]

Clark was ripped off on that. Refs are atrocious - make up call

 

[BugsyCT]

This is a critical time in the game. Gotta keep it close.

Jalen, we need you
