A KO specialty. Hey at least we get to enjoy the sweet sounds of Bill Walton.

Too bad Adams cant play against a D2 team every night

Teams dont even shoot this well in warmups. Our defense does wonders for the opponents.

pce out season

 

[UConnfan8]

What else did you expect? KO's best trait is his team getting off to slow starts. Calhouns was punching a team in the mouth, Ollies is mailing it in for the first 15 minutes of the half.

Rumor has it UConn is not allowed to call any time outs.

Embarrassing

 

[Dibbie]

Seems every opponent of ours has more energy and aggressiveness.

 

[ASweet3781]

This is a poorly coached team. This is an unprepared basketball team.

 

[CTfan07]

We have injuries, but no team should be this bad. Ollie's resume outside of a national championship (which I'm not discounting. That's a great accomplishment) is terrible

 

[UConnfan8]

Wow, people coming around to maybe Ollie not being a great coach. Thanksgiving miracle???

 

[Dibbie]

Channel changed...

 

[UConn990411]

Someone defend Ollie.

I'm not saying that to troll, either - I need someone to re-convince me this guy is really the answer at coach.

 

[BUConn10]

Hey, on the bright side at least the usual faces will come here after the game to preach how great of a moral victory this was and how much fight the guys showed.

 

[Horatio]

This is a poorly coached team. This is an unprepared basketball team.

I finally have to agree. Painfully I agree.

 

[superjohn]

Don't care how undermanned we are Ollie never has us prepared at any aspect of the game. We have a coaching problem.

 

[djct1999]

The hit the UConn brand has taken in only 3.5 months of athletic competition is absolutely mind boggling.

 

[TampaHusky78]

Oregon is 11-12 from the field right now. Tough D!

 

[ASweet3781]

Someone defend Ollie.

He can't be defended. Even before the injuries they lost to teams they had no business losing to. The same mistakes repeated game after game. It looks like this team did nothing but vegetate in the off season. No one looks like they were mentally or physically ready to go this season. Most experts thought this would be a top 20 team. The talent was there. Either everyone was wrong or this coach had no clue what to do with what he had.

 

[NielsisGood]

What kind of candidates could we even conceivably get these days?

 

[UConnfan8]

We missed with a Shaka Smart opening.

 

[Walker11]

I haven't seen anyone on the board state they think this team is good or well coached. Quit acting persecuted. Even harder to read than this game is to watch.

 

[UConnNick]

I want to give a major shout out to our entire crowd in Maui. They have been awesome throughout this tournament. Even when we've been seemingly hopelessly behind in games, they've made plenty of noise. And you can distinctly hear the UConn cheers. Great work!
