Do you honestly believe this?

Sometimes its execution.

They were amped. It's not a matter of want.

 

[sportsart]

Has to be the worst defensive team for UConn I've seen in a long time.

A lot of defense is effort. Not going to be a good year.

 

[spudzj6]

Cuse starting their offense inside arch, taking bunnies from 5 ft out, missing and 3 offensive players rebounding. No heart, no desire to box out or play with tenacity.

 

[mauconnfan]

Cobb is a nice player, can pass and get to the hole both hands but to not Help on that play before was scary

 

[UConnDan97]

We need to start making shots. And man, do we mis Alterique penetrating...

 

[Kitaman]

cuse is confident as hell, we need to do something!

 

[Horatio]

What!!!!!

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

We bad

 

[AdamaNation]

OK we're not clicking again.

The length is killing our abnormally short lineup. If Polley could play some d he and Larrier can help counter that a little. But inbounding is an issue as well.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Yes Shulman and Vital tell the world how bad it is.

 

[husky429]

It would be a horror show if he wasn't. Let him play smart with 2.

Espn saying he has 3?

 

[Walker11]

The negative recruiting going on by the announcers is disgusting. It's hard enough.

 

[superjohn]

Anderson seems like a nice kid, but it's very obvious he played at Fordham for a reason.

He was the 4th leading scorer at a horrible Fordham team, Anderson isn't the one we should be mad at.

 

[auror]

This game in a vacuum only. Do you think its bad coaching?

I don't.

Tonight is personnel. We don't have the shooters to bust the zone or the length to keep them off the glass or pass over the zone if we play our best lineup (small).

 

[Dove]

I really like Eric Cobb.

 

[Ewekon]

Need a run

 

[Tenspro2002]

Another non-competitive performance against an unranked team.

No OT wins against cupcakes can paper over the quality of play we're displaying.

 

[Horatio]

Bad shot vital

 

[Giddyup5]

I swear the people who are looking at this game alone and

Tonight is personnel. We don't have the shooters to bust the zone or the length to keep them off the glass or pass over the zone if we play our best lineup (small).

THANK YOU

 

[joober jones]

Cobb came to play, that's for sure.

 

[spudzj6]

Will give Ollie credit today for working the refs and adjustments on d to try and jump start his lazy team

 

[Tenspro2002]

Wow, Syracuse has only 3 bad possessions, we cut the lead to *10*, and Boeheim has seen enough.

That's the right level of urgency in calling timeouts.

 

[SaeHusky]

I think we are out scoring Cuse with Cobb on the floor

 

[UConnDan97]

Finally a shot goes down. Open up the zone a little for Cobb and Diarra...

 

[Giddyup5]

People who are saying "we don't have heart...or no effort" have never played basketball. That is not the issue so far this game.

 

[Milo65]

If you’re Kevin Ollie, win or lose, do you shake Bohiem’s hand? Nose picking son of a B.

 

[Ant3411]

Good timeout by Boeheim. Ollie should take notes.

 

[Kitaman]

I hope we don't depend on 3s

 

[uconnphil2016]

Having Dickie V reminisce of better UConn days while watching this team try to figure out the game of basketball legitimately makes me want to cry.

Part of his argument made sense, but the idea that we haven't been recruiting just isn't true. Some of Ollie's classes have been the best we've had. Can't give Ollie's coaching a pass.

 

[UConnDan97]

That was a clean block!

 

[Horatio]

Finally boxed out
