But will all of us spell his last name correctly? I'm assuming nobody will mess up his first name. Although around here you never know....Haha, in my head I mispronounce his last name as Reeb. By the time the season starts. UConn we have the pronunciation guide up on the roster website and that will resolve any debate as to how to say his name. I checked yesterday and it's not up yet.
It's not that deep, I should have put "lol" after the first line in my post
You realize that I was writing a phonetic pronunciation in that post, right?But will all of us spell his last name correctly? I'm assuming nobody will mess up his first name. Although around here you never know....![]()
It is kind of a no-win/no-lose situation. To see them lose is rather fun because I don't care for most of them (to put it politely). But I am still not over '72, so....A major Olympic tournament is different.
Yes, I realized that. That's why the conjunction "but" lead off the sentence.You realize that I was writing a phonetic pronunciation in that post, right?
In any event, I will offer that you're being the self-appointed name police has gotten tired. Just my opinion.
He'll play backup 5 the vast majority of the time, although I suspect he will see some spot time at the 4 depending on the situation (fouls, opponents, etc.) Unlike the last three years, Riebe actually has the skills to play the 4. Depending on how he develops and what our future recruiting looks like, its also possible he could be the 4 down the road.We have no backup 5. We have other dudes who can play the 4
FIFYThis may be the first time we agreed on something. What an awfulsportgame.
Not offended, so much by bored by it. It was funny at first, now it's just obnoxious. Just my opinion. You seem offended by my sharing it with you. Not my intention.Yes, I realized that. That's why the conjunction "but" lead off the sentence.
At this point it's just a running joke since I don't think I've actually pointed out anyone spelling a player's name wrong in a long time. Kind of like the joke about PC having just as much of a chance as anyone. Sorry if it offended you. It's obvious why it did.
Here's Adam Finkelstein pronouncing his last name correctly. Surprised there is so much confusion on this.Haha, in my head I mispronounce his last name as Reeb. By the time the season starts.

correct. Also, NCAA basketball NIL/revenue sharing salary is paying more than the minor league versions, or whatever you want to call them, of the pro teams over there such as Barcelona, Real Madrid, etc. That means those younger top players in Europe will come here to the States to play in college basketball. If UConn doesn't keep international recruiting as a staple, other schools will fill the gap.International has gotta be a recruiting staple going forward. More and more talent coming from overseas and they don't need the kind of polishing a lot of AAU prospects do.
I apologize that I don't accept stupid. Somehow, my friends don't find it a problem. Possibly because they're not stupid.I'm sure you're a real joy at the company Christmas party
You should see the bidet thread.

Calhoun’s breakout in early 90s was made possible by 2 Israeli standouts, Nadav Henefeld and Doran Sheffield. No one expected either of them to be great until they showed up on campus and dominated.International has gotta be a recruiting staple going forward.
