Official Columbia Game Thread

Not sure what has made me more sad watching the last 12 months, UConn basketball, UConn football, or Giants football.

 

[Tuna]

I'm not excusing anything I've seen but when Gilbert is out and Adams has 2 points at half you're going to have problems.

 

[UCSLP]

Been a long time Husky fan.Graduated UConn in1975-Tony Hansen/Joey Whelton days. Every fall can't wait for the season to begin. Have never felt so disheartened by a team. No heart-no pride. Need a new direction-coach. Time to clean house. This is NOT UConn basketball. Sorry I spent so much to go to MSG next Tuesday.

 

[JustbrewitMan]

Like Diarras energy overall but he needs to keep the attitude in check. Gonna get a T at some point with all the jawing in your face crapola

PASS THE BALL JALEN

 

[Paesano]

I keep seeing Ollie needs to go. Here's the scary party folks... Ollie is not getting fired and I highly doubt he will walk on his own. He's going no where anytime soon. Buckle in

An honorable man would resign. He deserved some bank for the championship. He got it. At best, he and the university are even. Beyond this point, he us a net negative.

 

[Kitaman]

Our offense is baffling, is that the intent?

 

[Purple Stein]

They're trying to let us back in and we're just throwing away opportunities.

 

[Jaker]

We got this.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Diarra totally changes this team. More sack than the rest of them combined. More passion and energy. And suddenly they look to pass.

 

[MuchoDogYears]

Amazing the coach can't see that. In related news he compared Rodney Purvis to a ferrari.

Maybe, just maybe, Purvis WAS a Ferrari but KO showed him a Honda Odyssey playbook?

 

[UconnFanNVa]

Terry should never bring the ball up the court.

 

[UConnJim]

Larrier should not bring the ball up. He doesn't have the handle.

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Well the defense seems to have improved ... now if someone could just hit the ocean from a boat, we might have a shot.

 

[jdb50]

Larrier dribbling is bad for us

 

[Tuna]

PASS THE BALL JALEN

This guy is ice cold

 

[Jaker]

Something smells fishy

 

[polycom]

number 12 on Columbia will be the reason we win...

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Thank god for meisner at the line

 

[Milo65]

Not sure how much Adams is giving them right now

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Adams hits that shot 999/1000 times

 

[Doctor Hoop]

No idea how Adams missed that layup.

 

[BlueDogs]

They can pull this out, but you have to ask why against a 1-4 Ivy League team.

 

[GoUconn7961]

I was "enjoying" a Hallmark Christmas movie at halftime.. I should have stuck with it..lol

 

[Kitaman]

AA;s don't miss that shot

 

[JustbrewitMan]

So much ball movement, screening, & cutting by Columbia...good stuff

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Should have been 5 sec

[Paesano]

My son is applying to Columbia. If he gets in, he will get to watch a better team than if he went to UConn. That is mind blowing, given our history.

 

[Tex-Lager93]

Ollie has destroyed any semblance of UCONN basketball. We look like garbage against every team. Jalen Adams has gone from a very good player to a guy who is out of shape, consistently getting banged up in-game, and playing without a care in the world.

Send Kevin Ollie on his way home, and call Jim Calhoun to take over for the rest of the year. During this time, AD Dave Benedict should lead a search nationally for the right candidate to take over the program.

Chris Beard at Texas Tech. Does amazing things with much less talent / has won at all levels and took a Ark Little Rock team to the round of 32. Bad part is he has roots in Texas and as an assistant at Texas Tech. Tubby Smith went from TT to Memphis - so it’s possible. I’d like to think our program still means something...
