A win! Wooooooooooo!

 

[Doctor Hoop]

I have no idea what Polley did to get so deep in the doghouse, but IMHO he needs some time. Getting lost on defense? If so, he ain’t the only one. He’s got a nice outside shot that would get better with more reps, and he’s not getting them.

Look at that, Polley with the rebound and makes both!!!

 

[UConnDan97]

He seems to be the only guy that ollie yanks immediately when he misses rebound or has a bad defensive possession

That might have been true before today, but it feels like he's got some burn today. And he just nailed some big free throws. Good to see that...

Wait for ECU to hit a 3 to tie the game

WAITING

 

[BlueDogs]

This team simply sucks

 

[uchusky32]

Not big time at all. Play like you know how to win. We win but played to lose. Freshman shoes how to hit big fts.

 

[len0322]

Like the poise of TP12 to ice it

 

[HuskyHawk]

I think I’ll go to Trillium and buy more beer. Going to need it with this team.

 

[Dibbie]

This team simply sucks

Fortunately, ECU sucked just a little bit more

 

[Doctor Hoop]

This team simply sucks

I think somebody needs a Snickers bar ...

Lets see if we learned anything from the last game.

That is the problem. Does this team learn anything as the season progresses? The "a win is a win" attitude and reaction we are going to get from KO and the staff is NOT what is needed. This feels like a loss, doesn't it?

 

[noeynox]

While I agree, I wonder if coaches are now reluctant to do so with this snowflake generation. Tough love may not work

that. Terry threw up a terrible 13 foot airball over the rim that should have got him benched. At least they pulled it out but man we're bad.

 

[HobokenHusky]

It's like they are playing without a coach. That is honestly what it looks like to watch this team. Ollie is just absent, just sits there. It's terrible.

 

[sledog]

2 big FTs for Polly. Who knows what else was waiting in the wings.

 

[TitleTown]

I think a lot of fans are just becoming apathetic at this point...

Can you blame them?

 

[ConnHuskBask]

The body language and look of the majority of the team just screams indifference.

Similar to the fanbase.

 

[JakeTheDog]

UConn will win by 5 just because.

Prescient.

 

[3rdbass]

Wow big win at home against the now 7-8 ECU team! Maybe we can avoid finishing last in the conference. Pathetic. I see we didn't get much inside again.

 

[CTBballfan243]

Really big AAC win for UConn. Needed that one. The young guys are improving. Really nice team effort and a tough win.

What game did you watch?

 

[freescooter]

So we snuck out a win over the 322 rpi team. Does that make us an at large contender?

 

[sledog]

And LV is further POed

 

[3rdbass]

What game did you watch?

Just one of those delirious fans who is happy with a win no matter the competition. I can see we looked awful and just won because ECU is horrible! I guess the improvement is that it didn't take 2 OT's to win it. LOL!

Those guys are never passed to. One alley a game and some put backs. Vital, Adams, and Larrier get all the shots regardless of how terrible some of those are. Unreal.

 

[Coach J]

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT! (Sarcasm added)

He checked out a while ago but is still cashing those checks.
