Brutal. Red don't want me a 'cuse, I know I won't get drafted but I'll do it for grins and giggles. Please, someone like me. Let him go to the MAC and knock out 30 ppg as a grad student.

Would love to hear an NBA scouts take on this clown. How many rounds would the NBA draft have to be for him to get drafted? I think an 11 round draft might do it

My question stands: miss the point much? Some people on here disparage UCOnn and particularly Hurley, saying he can’t coach and they would not want him at SU. They are better than SU. They recruit better. They play a better style of offense and defense, and they play hard. SU is soft, slow and lazy. I don’t know that Autry can change that, but I know Hurley would.

He has recruited well there. They play “hard” - so do most teams.

He’s a genius on the sidelines when the going gets tough. Wouldn’t want him. What are his accomplishments at UConn?

Dear God in Heaven, I couldn't stop reading. My favorite take of all is that the nose picker didn't recruit Sanogo hard because "he's not exactly a prototypical 2-3 zone player." That's the most 'cuse thing I ever heard.

And that's my nephew in the dog suit.

They're trying the reverse mojo mojo. Talk up UConn like they're invicible with the hope the reverse mojo works.

Yeah I get it.. I just think their reverse mojo mojo is poppycock.

 

[uconnfan68]

I thought I had matured to a point where I did not take enormous enjoyment watching the Orange fanbase melt down from continued UCONN success.

.........turns out I'm not that mature.

And I liked "pants tight after that alley oop" too.

I always thought Girard had so much potential on the right team. He was a pure shooter coming out of HS and on pace to be a 2k point scorer…

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Yeah I get it.. I just think their reverse mojo mojo is poppycock.

I have a feeling that they've reversed, reversed, reversed do many times that they no longer know which is the correct direction. They also are Vizzini from the Princess Bride and don't realize that both goblets have been poisoned but we have made ourselves immune.

They are a plucky and gritty fan base, but I don't think that's working.

Playing against teams with 6-1 centers. He always struck me as what you’d get if Jimmer Fredette drank beer and ate wings for every meal.

 

[ElGreco]

I can kind of understand Kingtide feeling that way

We passed them, we lapped them, we lapped them again and we're working on lapping them one more time. Our near term goals are to be in position to make a deep tournament run every year. Their near term goals are to crack the top ten in the ACC.

“… They had little brother syndrome for a while but that is faded.”

This is a breathtakingly delusional statement. 1.) this has certainly not been the case in my lifetime, if anything it has been the other way around, and 2.) did the syndrome fade at approximately the time your team set up a permanent camp atop the ncaa bubble?

We’ve had more championships since 2004. This is next level delusion.

Haha INCONCEIVABLE!!

Funny they call the Kemba championship garbage considering we were a 3 seed that year and they were a 3 seed the year they won.

There's another fun post in which a poster explains away the 2011 & 2014 NCs, excuses their bad luck in 2 Finals, and turns 4>1 into Cuse having no less than equal top finishes, more F4s, equal E8s, and more S16 (or some such that configuration that results in pretty equal programs).

Duke is about to find out what happens when your HOF coach retires.

It’s kinda funny how right he is. But that doesn’t make any of the title runs any less special.

As I said earlier about a different fan base with similar opinions:

I feast on their anger and jealousy!

Duke is about to find out what happens when your HOF coach retires.

Eh idk. I might be in the minority, but I think Scheyer is going to be very good unfortunately.

 

[The Yakk]

Eh idk. I might be in the minority, but I think Scheyer is going to be very good unfortunately.

If he can deliver the same bags of money to recruits that Coach Krapukeski did, then probably yes.

 

[HuskyBaggins]

It is a little easier to MAKE the tournament on the regular with a bench full of McD's AAs.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

I don’t hate Scheyer nearly as much as I hated Coach K, but part of that is I don’t view Duke as a powerhouse anymore. They are just another decent program. It is harder to hate those kind of programs.
