Alex promoting it. Okay tea leaf readers, time to punch that clock. I read it as a good sign that he’s still there doing videos and not packing his closet.

Oh, and I’ll be watching the special also…

Big Red is the memory I have from the game my sister took me to ~1993 vs Syracuse, she pointed him out to me and was like "wait for him to start the big chant!". That was a long time ago and I was so happy to find out years later when I rekindled my interest in watching games (~2019) that not only was the chant going strong but so was/is Big Red. I have an 8yr old son who runs around chanting it a lot, it's his favorite part I think

UCONN UCONN UCONN!!!

I believe that at least a few missed the miniature Tom put in his response.

Not going to lie—when I saw him on the screen shot I instantly wondered if he was announcing

 

[DW1361]

Loved it BIG RED!!!

 

[navery12]

I still have no idea if there's 1 or 2 Tom Emery UConn fans. I've accepted that I'll die not knowing

 

[3rdbass]

A real nice piece about a True UConn fan all his life. Lives and breathes UConn and gets to show it at every game he attends. Go Big Red and Go U-C-O-N-N!

Not I.
U?

I've done a lot of sleuthing, and I'm convinced there are two. Which is no fun. Hopefully I'm wrong.

I sticking with my theory, which is that he's doing a Clark Kent/Superman thing, but in reverse.

The superhero (Bid Red) wears the glasses, he's just Temery once he takes them off.

It's one of the best gags we've got

 

[Marat]

Loved it !

Maybe one of them is Trilly Donovan too

 

[Waquoit]

Did it mention his photo in FHM?

 

[temery]

No mention of The Boneyard. Smart move.

 

[Mike Honcho]

It was cute and a little cringe. Big Red has faithfully carried the torch for a long, long time. We need a succession plan. I vote Lil Red. That guy is nuts and it makes too much sense. Have a ceremony around it.

 

[coachn]

Thanks Big Red

 

[StllH8L8ner]

He should get his own tribute wall somewhere at Gampel or XL. Basically the very definition of a Superfan.

Shrewd.

We await how they finesse the forthcoming "The Other Tom Emery" documentary.

If we want him around for #7 and #8, he should get an NIL package from UConn Health.

I was trying to think of an NIL scenario as I was watching. I mean I guess there are no rules so there may be a solution.
