Regardless of today's outcome, I would suggest that everyone leaves their negative opinions off this board. These are great kids, bring it everyday and give everything they have for a great coaching staff(In KO we believe)! We need to rally behind them not take cheap shots on a message board!

We are huskies, lets act like it.


All the best, Skinner

Please don't tell me you weren't screaming at your TV all day in joy. We have had the greatest 20 years, and we will have the greatest next 20 years. You can count on THAT!
 
he could legit turn the corner. you don't accidentally drop 28 on SMU in the fashion he did. Looks like he learned the nba trick when penetrating; subtly slap the defenders hand check away, but not shoving off.

Wouldn't that be nice! At least I won't have to defend him after this game. Couldn't believe some people were going after him after the ECU game.

As an aside PN is playing much better. He held his own against a real good front court. Will need that against Temple.

Nah, some people have moved on to Facey (see the 4 0n five thread.)

Skinner, I had an off topic UConn question for you, if you have a moment, can you send me a private message. Mike-

Two guys who would go after a blind woman who only rescued twenty orphans from a building on fire but left two behind!:oops:
 
9/16, 3/6, 7/7 ain't bad. Perhaps the Ferarri got a tune-up? Seems everyone got a tune-up today.

Agreed I was proud of how Phil played all game. Kudos to him for continuing to bring constant effort. Plus that foul line jumper was a huge bonus. Loved his 110% today.

The answer is yes, we are getting out of this s conference (eventually).

Yes, I believe he caught Larry Brown with his pants down today. Larry was so wet pants scared of Boat/Hamilton that he forgot all about Hot Rod, much to his chagrin. He won't likely make the same mistake twice, but if we truly become a triple threat team on offense, I'm not sure Larry or his Ponies are going to be able to handle it, no matter what they throw at us.

Maybe Rodney just needs a big house and sense of occasion to shine like the Ferrari he can be.
 
Purvis was a different player today. Had the superman suit on.
 
I've got a very good feeling we're about to rattle off 11 more wins. The mojo was strong today. The nation has been put on notice.

And @huskies92 is the man.

Edited it for you!
 
To whoever corrected my egregious error I wouldn't like to say thank you. It was truly short sighted to only predict through the end of the conference tournament. I hope the mojo gods will accept my sincerest apologies. Go Huskies
 
This is what I take from Rodney today:

If he's hitting FTs, he's going to drive and embrace contact, play more physically showing his athleticism, and the points he gets there will build his confidence which will aid him everywhere. It's a beautiful cycle. I really hope he can keep the FT shooting going.
 
Hopefully a new man. Even if he gives us half of what he did today consistently, we are a better team
 
You know, it doesn't make somebody a nay sayer or better yet, a "hater" to be critical when a guy manages to step out of bounds for like 5 straight games.

The kid absolutely killed it today and we've all been rooting for him all season.

As long as the criticism isn't personal, it's fair game, IMO.

Ferrari's look much better in the bright lights of an Interstate than on the unlit dirt back roads that lead to some of our conference 'rivals' ' homes.
[Lord forgive me for encouraging the use of the Ferrari analogy.]

We`ll see how fast the love fest dies off if he goes 2 for 10 in his next game and we lose. The mob is fickle.
