Uconn is playing in NCAA's, we've advanced past the Sweet 16 after a long while, on our way to what could be our 6 Final 4 and 5th NC and we're on a Cuse thread ranting. WTH. Lol
It's about historical context and long-term rivalries. That's part of what makes it fun! It's like a musical counterpoint to the now-focused conversations. To me, this self-serving Houston Astros fan mentality of "nothing that happened before 2017 matters, history starts then" is some short-sighted thinking. Why follow sports if you're expected to forget about championship runs, dream seasons, even heartbreaking losses after 10, 20, 30 years? I sure as Sanogo abusing Timme in the paint tonight wouldn't bother if I wasn't weaving it into the bigger picture. It'd just get repetitive. Need the narrative to stay engaged.Uconn is playing in NCAA's, we've advanced past the Sweet 16 after a long while, on our way to what could be our 6 Final 4 and 5th NC and we're on a Cuse thread ranting.

"Two of their titles were ripped from Duke's hands." I think I just discovered my new meditation mantra. It's a phrase that sings of timeless beauty.
I NEED THIS, I do not know how I am gonna spend the next 10 hours without going crazy haha.

UNC and Kentucky and Louisville all fell off. It’s OK. It happens. I didn’t say Duke would never be the best again. I’m just saying there will be a fall off. It’s happened to every single school that has won with a HOF coach. Some never make it back (Georgetown).Eh idk. I might be in the minority, but I think Scheyer is going to be very good unfortunately.
I just went to the SU board to read those comments and have to say the majority are positive comments (maybe grudgingly made) and far different than I expected.
It's sort of like one of the phases of grieving...........
And?It is a little easier to MAKE the tournament on the regular with a bench full of McD's AAs.
Lmao you beat me to it
I was an basket case all day. I vacuumed the hell out of my house. I rearranged my sock drawer, I watched three episodes of Lilyhammer. After that I only had 9 hours to wait before tip off. The women’s game didn’t help.I NEED THIS, I do not know how I am gonna spend the next 10 hours without going crazy haha. Maybe I will go to the movies to pass the time
Everytime they have a protected seed the rest of the field shts the bed. Ridiculous.UConn is absolutely a lucky program. An athletic department hemorrhaging money and yet staring at a 5th title for basketball somehow. It's wild. Now they are very good and have serious talent - no questioning that but without question they crap 4 leaf clovers when you look at the 11 and 14 runs , all that happened since and look now... with a seriously broke AD.

Some Duke fan account seething at the thought of us winning #5 and saying that we stole 2 titles from themTweet is deleted. What did it say?
Update: We've now stolen three titles from Duke. Evidence has surfaced on the Devils' Den showing that 2011 counts as a "stolen title" also. It has something to do with Duke losing by luck-fluke to Arizona, on top of the '99 and '04 highway robberies enabled by refs not calling fouls on Ricky Moore (covering Langdon on that last play in '99) and Emeka Okafor.Some Duke fan account seething at the thought of us winning #5 and saying that we stole 2 titles from them
Two from them, two from Kentucky.Some Duke fan account seething at the thought of us winning #5 and saying that we stole 2 titles from them
Kentucky board too. Actually, they have been fairly complimentary, admitting we are a blue blood.The dook tdd board, Rutgers rivals and even friar talk all have some good salty Uconn hate threads. Loving it
I think the correct answer is somewhere between a long time and never
that's because they think they can hire hurley after the squid gets firedKentucky board too. Actually, they have been fairly complimentary, admitting we are a blue blood.
