When Gaffney is in the game. I get his personal numbers, but as a team it’s not working

We feel worse about this team… when you post.

I am pleased to see that they don't call goaltending in the NCAA any more.

I wish we had known that yesterday, as Hurley could have made it a point of emphasis before tonight's game.

We should be ready in time to face the Bonnie's. Or is this just a special thing, tonight?
Maybe Hurley should ask the refs.

 

[OUTATIME]

They've called 2 in the second half. But horrible no call at the end of the half.

 

[biggieb1950]

we now know why he wasn't playing that much, nervous at the least

 

[TeasedDonut]

Polley and Hawkins being on 1 in 3 games is going to make this season infuriating. Refs stink too

[uconntoatl]

Everyone on this team is panicky...not just Hawkins

 

[OUTATIME]

We only have one ball handler I trust. Cole.

[jibsey]

Not expected to win this road game down 2 starters but we did blow it.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Really not going to judge the freshmen. This is a veteran team. No excuses for the veterans

Guys letting shot clock run out bc afraid to shoot.

Afraid to attack a 1-3-1 press over and over again if Cole didn’t have it.

That shot Polley took on the rebound was just “I’m afraid to dribble so I’ll take a wild shot.”

Play Diggins. Play the kids that aren’t afraid.

And as someone that loves fast guards, I want to say RJ Cole - I was wrong about you. You are a warrior and tough mentally and physically.

Missed the toughness of Tyrese bad.

Can’t wait to get UConn tough teams back. Such a weak showing not boxing out afraid to dribble vs pressure. You can’t play sports afraid!!!!

 

[Mike1984]

But but Hawkins is so good (says most on this board)

 

[Huskyforlife]

Missed martin today.

 

[JMick]

Whaley and Cole were the only ones mentally ready for this game. Everyone else was clueless all night.

 

[uconnfan68]

What a home job.

 

[jibsey]

3-22. That’s all.

 

[aceboon]

The late possession where they had about 5 open looks and they all passed them up leading to a shot clock violation pretty much summed up this team in late game situations. They have to unwrap their hands from around their own necks in these type of situations, they play tight as hell.

 

[TheRealKBuks]

tough loss but this team is good. We went toe to toe in a hostile environment without our 2nd and 3rd best players. Should've won but still very happy with this squad.

Jackson wasn't bad.

 

[Mooch82]

We shot the ball AWFULLY. 3/21 from 3. We go 6/21…which isn’t even good…we win easily.

 

[UncleSpliff]

27-11 foul shot disparity. 2nd home job in a row. While Uconn didn’t deserve to win that game had it been called evenly they would have.

 

[tykurez]

It says Polley was only 0-4 from three but it felt like 0-10. Need him to find it before the end of the year.

 

[Stinger92860]

What a home job.

What? Were the rims were 10 feet 6 inches? We shot 3 of 21 from 3 and 54% from FT.

 

[BigFanCT]

Are we sure that there isn’t a guy out there that can recruit the same guys that we’re getting and actually coach in game? Serious question. I mean how many years are we going to give Hurley to say “he’s learning”. This was SUCH a joke game. A guy that knew what he was doing on the court would have taken this unbelievably terrible WVU offense to school.

 

[Kenny11]

We should have won that game by 15.

Polley and Hawkins missed many open shots. I don’t think either hit a 3. I’m fine with that because it probably won’t happen again.

But everything else was pathetic. The amount of panic that Hurley and our team display in tight games is very concerning and the craziness becomes predictable.

Besides #12 we had better talent at every position. Inexcusable.

[JMick]

Jackson wasn't bad.

did we watch the same game? he had a good first 10 minutes and that was about it.
