That 5 point swing really hurt. Not sure about the foul discrepancy, but I will note that every 50/50 call went Michigan’s way. One or two of them our way and the story could have been different.

A lot of 80/20 calls went their way too.....
 
Disappointed with the result, but this team played their hearts out. I have never been more proud as a UConn fan.

Mainly hurts because Michigan really left the door open for us with how poorly they shot, but felt like we weren’t allowed to play our game and take advantage. We needed to hit a few more shots for sure, but also overcoming half your starters being in early foul trouble on questionable calls in a championship game is really tough.

So proud of this team though. I’ll admit I doubted them with the way they headed into the tournament. But I’ll never do that with a Dan Hurley team again.

Edit - also, to the one Michigan fan at Murphy’s in Cromwell. I hope someone gave you the beating you were basically begging for. Absolute scumbag

Cam was a trash talker. Cadeau is a snake. Big difference.

I don’t think we can talk about Cadeau’s foul baiting like we didn’t watch both Kemba and Shabazz carry us to a championship with that skill.

I will really miss these two warriors. Great players and incredible people.

Part of the sadness of being a fan is that the players you grow so attached to move on and their families move along with them. I had a long talk with Tarris Reed's dad about the coaching he's received and how much his game has developed and how much he's developed as a man. Amazing guy. Mrs. Demary and her family delayed going over to the stadium tonight because she went back into the hotel and back up to her room to get us swag she promised us yesterday.

Everything about this program from the players, their families, former players, coaches, well-heeled donors who support the program with incredible amounts of money and their time and effort blow me away.

AK gave us everything for more than 4 years and he's an integral part of the greatest run in program history. He will be sorely missed.

My issue is Cadeau is also sneaky borderline dirty in how he plays. Some of the two handed shoves he gave our guys tonight were egregious and I can’t believe not a single one got called.

That's fantastic. How did you get such access to the players and their families?

Through my lifelong friends. They've made many connections over the years with the program. This is the first time I've really gotten to experience it all and my appreciation for the program is even higher than I thought possible.

Some cool things are happening behind the scenes and we will see some people brought back into the family. Got to talk to Boat, Polley, and Oriakhi.

2014 team never truly got enough credit and that will change.

Hes not good enough to enter the draft, as is, so he's probably thinking about the portal. He is from North Carolina. Im just speculating

I hope Silas comes back next year. He gutted out an ankle injury that normally would've kept someone out for 3 weeks. I know the title game wasn't what he wanted, but getting him was a home run and a huge success for this team. He was first team all Big East and was on the first all transfer team according to many publications. I think he will be even better next year if he returns.
