On My Way to San Antonio

[Nostical]

I’m on a business trip—not going to FF. I’m connecting through Atlanta and plane is filled with BBall coaches.They all act like they’re in one big fraternity. I’m sitting behind Bobby Huggins and the head of BBall operations at East Tenn St. When I said I’m a UConn guy Huggins said “Danny’s a great young coach—Others said ”great hire”. Nothing but laughter and BBall talk all around me.
I can’t wait to ask what they think of Susan!

How many drinks has Huggins had so far? Is he wearing a sweat suit?

 

[Nostical]

No he’s calm dry and jovial. It surprised me too.

Just hit "watch thread" in anticipation of further reports....

If you have time, try to visit the Alamo's basement.

Top notch.

Ask about KO

 

[UConnSportsGuy]

Tell them you work for the FBI and have some business to conduct in San Antonio at the Final Four this weekend.

Report back to us with their reaction.

 

[J187Money]

Where are you staying?

 

[Zissou]

I'm on my way to San Antonio too.

Pleasure, not business. It's a Big East thing.

 

[jibsey]

That’s a nice endorsement by Huggy. Love the way he operates giving the middle finger to whoever he wants. No suit for you!

Nice. First class or coach?

I'm in the Atlanta airport traveling for business right now.

Are you still here?

If I shout "UConn!" will I receive a response?

If you're there for a bit treat yourself to dinner at Bohanan's. Best steak I've ever had and pretty amazing cocktails as well.

I ate dinner at Chicken + Beer in Concourse D.

Would highly recommend to anyone with a layover in ATL

Wish they served the menu in the bar downstairs. I usually end up at the Palm since I’m usually alone.

TBH I can't even argue this – fried chicken and beer is always a perfect choice.

Did not expect the depressing surprise ending.

Underrated.

Fried chicken with sides of cheese grits and mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy.

Can't go wrong.

 

[Ewekon]

Go to Boudro's on the River walk and get the guacamole. Best food on the River walk.

For a local take on steak hit Little Rhein. Really solid. I've had many a steak dinner sitting solo at steak house bars across the country while on business. Never mind that at all.

Not depressing to me. Just when I eat alone I prefer to have good bartenders to chat with. Doesn’t work at Bohanan’s.

 

[Madmannsucks]

Do they have a Red Lobster? Heard they have a new special that people are raving about.

 

[Nostical]

Staying at the Westin. It’s Loyola’s hotel. All decked out for them. Lobby has their colors all over. Huge pics of players on lobby columns. TV interviews happening with several players. Only person I haven’t seen is Sister Jean. I chatted with Seth Davis and Cuonzo Martin of Mizzou at Boudro’s—(Great Guac and blackened filet.) All had good things to say about Hurley—all wanted to see UConn back and relevant.
Problem is my client could care less about basketball. Heading in for the night.

Brings me back to the Bahamas 2015. This one dude deserved a damn medal for carrying the UConn crowd. Virtually every defensive possession he started a "D - FENCE" chant. On offense? You'd hear this bellowing UUUUUUUUCOOOOOOON and you couldn't help but yell back - HUUSKKKKIES. We were all horse for 3 days. Great memory. Can't wait to find out where UConn's pre-tourni is next year!

Well, he's surrounded by bball coaches, so, I mean... duh.
