Ollie finally lost them

[caw]

This is what I was worried about happening all year and it finally happened. The kids have finally given up. Giffey and Napier provide most of the grit for this team. With both out they don't have the talent or passion. No excuse, this is the type of game that should eliminate a team from the NCAAT (not that UConn is eligible).

It will be interesting to see if Ollie can get them back.

 

[husky99]

Yup

 

[ASweet3781]

Ollie lost them?

OLLIE LOST THEM?

Has this entire board gone blind. Did you SEE who Ollie had available out there? We have about 7 players, 2 of them are gone including the most important one.

Disagree. I don't think they given up. I don't think we have the talent to continue when our best player is out and one of our best defenders. Idk I just want Ollie to get win 20

Idk this team is really short handed right now. If anything i hope this shows any doubters how huge Napier was all year. Maybe the post season ban is finally starting to wear on them? To be honest its been starting to wear on me the last couple weeks since this is really the end.

 

[Adios]

Calhoun has an injured hand and Boatright is....Boatright. Hot shot.

 

[husky99]

No passion tonight, easy dunks, thin D, and zero effort

 

[ConnHuskBask]

This has to be a joke, right?

 

[Hi-Low]

Lost them...lol...we had Daniels, Boat and pack of matches on the floor most of the game.

 

[superjohn]

We are down 3 of our best players, it's essentially a 6 man team right now with a walk on starting in the backcourt. Injuries and lack of scholarships caught up with us, luckily there is only 1 game left. Time to start building for our run next year.

We just had what we (and every other team) tend to have....a bad loss....a WTF loss.

It happens every year to nearly every team. We had managed to dodge that particular bullet right up until this evening.


Come back in off the ledge....

Holy duck*, that's stupid.

I mean, really, really stupid - the kind of stupid you don't come back from. They should brand a duck*ing "S" on your stupid duck*ing forehead.

Did you see the roster Ollie threw out on the court tonight?

This duck*ing board needs to be shut down forever.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Please lock this thread.

 

[zyron]

Unbelievable. We barely have 5 guys to suit up and play and Ollie lost them? Such and idiotic statement.

 

[Inyatkin]

Listen, you can't spend all year extolling Napier's virtues like we have (deservedly), and to a lesser extent Giffey, and then knock the team for not being good when they're out.

THIS.

It was one ducking game, calm the duck down.

 

[Scoe]

This team is limited, its been a roller coaster ride all year long and it seems we have finally gone off the roller coaster, hopefully we see better effort on Sat, you would hope you would. I honestly believe Shabazz will play against Providence. This team looks tired and im tired just watching them.

 

[OkaForPrez]

You can be down to your last 5, and outclassed in talent, but as long as it says uconn on your chest you fight. That is the Ollie mantra. Daniels conceding the lane was the symbolic play for the final 10 min. Yes we've taken on critical damage to too many pieces. Yes Omar should count as one of our injured. And, yes, they quit. It's a shame for a wonderful season to go out this way. The stage is set for one more statement by this team on Sr. Day.

Thank you. I am as chicken little as the next, anyone with a brain knew this game was lost when Napier/giffey was not going to play and Calhoun's condition was reported to be getting worse.

7 player team down to about 2-3 and people want to act shocked we lost this game and say Ollie lost the team. Can't take the stupidity.

 

[Fishy]

We're barely at 33% of our German capacity and we get threads like this.

I'm almost too angry to watch Duck Dynasty now.

caw, no disrespect, but when I saw the title of this thread, I was expecting the poster to be freescooter.

KO hasn't lost them. He's going with what he has. The strength of this team has been the tandem of SN/RB. That luxury is no longer available, as well as our sixth man. Not to mention OC's injury (he was awful). Our two best players were Daniels and Evans. With the way RB played, we should have lost by 30 from the get-go.

 

[James]

I think they were tired. Boatright needs to learn alot of things . Giffey brought iq. Omar had an injured hand. Daniels looks like a 20+ a game plus 8 boards and 3 blocks right now who knows next year. Daniels is also a wildly underrated defender. honestly all we needed to do is feed deandre, he was then double and triple teamed. Open shots galor. Too bad

You are one of the biggest morons on this board, and yes I am aware you were there in the beginning. You occasionally say something funny, but you are a bully and honestly not that intelligent. You jump on people and call them idiots every time they express an opinion that doesn't jive with yours.

If you all didn't see the effort difference in this game and the Cinci game you weren't paying attention. Giffey played a total of 13 minutes in that game.

 

[SaeHusky]

This thread is a joke - and I give Daniels a pass on that dunk - he played the entire game and was exhausted.

Will you make that happen?

PS: I will eternally hate if you do (what do I do with my life?)
