Woah, I typed AD.DB and it auto corrected to his full name apparently. Didn’t mean to sound like some sycophant. On second thought, we can definitely blame him for the Flosports disaster, just not the broken hoop thing

What's the use of a recording? Nothing happened. Unless you wanted to see the women scrimmage 4 on 4 in the half court.

Busted basket throws wrench into First Night, Dan Hurley’s preparation plans for UConn men

Before the UConn men even stepped into Gampel Pavilion Friday night, they began to experience what was missing last year. Fans were gathered outside enjoying the street festival, and it was obvious…

the whole thing was low rent. digital skilz are consistently sketchy at state u. spare us the lawyering and excuse-making. it stunk.
that's not how it works. that's not how any of this works.


it's 2021, soon to be 2022.
 
somewhat glad they didnt play the glorified scrimmage. some of our guys are already banged up enough.
 
Glad I fell asleep and missed this debacle.

Yes, AD FB buck stops with you. Normally I wouldn't expect an AD to spend a minute in the preparation and coordination of getting a decent streaming production and going over details like, say having two baskets at regulation height.

He should have a sit down with whomever the "leaders" or Coordinators we're if this event and rip them a new one.

And next year, it better be much better.

Amateur hour indeed.

That’s some funny stuff… I’m glad our recruiting is on point so this doesn’t bother me at all.

The CW20 coverage was either a joke or a travesty. Can't decide which. They'd be showing something on the court, and just before it actually happened, they'd cut to their emcee, whoever the hell he was. And here comes the scrimmage. Any second now, the scrimmage will start. But we're switching to some stupid sitcom right now.

Who is banged up?

From Courant rehash above:

“Freshman Rahsool Diggins and grad student Tyler Polley were out with minor injuries, Polley a sore ankle, Diggins a knee injury that could keep him out a couple of weeks.”

Open practice for ticket holders would be the best outcome from tonight!

Yea we need to replace this missed opportunity for the players to play in front of something other than cardboard cutouts. Maybe open practice for all fans ala the blue white scrimmages at civic center back in the day ?

He was on campus. Coincidence?

Looks like Diggins has a chip on his shoulder, too.

Obviously putting glue on the ball to improve his handle didn’t work out quite the way he hoped.
 
Looks like Reid Ducharme was there last night for his sister based on his IG story
