Dan welcomes Rothstein to campus every summer. He gives us great exposure and has a decent eye for talent. You don't get those invitations from Dan if there wasn't mutual respect. Looking forward to hearing JR's observations today. Best you can ask for in mid-July

Interested to see what he reports. If there’s not a palpable buzz coming out of Storrs then we’re in trouble.

Someone embed the twewts! I beg ya. For some reason when I open twitter now it shows most liked of all time instead of recent and I'm too old to figure out how to fix it.

if memory serves, Rothstein was bullish on Hurley/ UConn early on. I like his style, gets his point across without being obnoxious.

Does anyone actually hate Rothstein? I know he has a shtick, but he seems pretty universally liked by college basketball fans.

No, he's an extremely likable guy.

There are still folks on this board who read that tweet, watched Samson make 9 3s all season as a senior and decided he is a PF playing out of position and should have been jacking 3s. It's truly bizarre.

David, there is always someone on the boneyard who will hate one of the following things:
1) sports reporters
2) Network rights deals
3) TV camera angles
4) sports talk radio hosts
5) anything to do with the NBA
6) any post that expresses an opinion
7) Laettner (still)
8) restaurants that have any degree of popularity

Correct. I hate all of them.

Is he only on Twitter/X? That place is a cesspool and I deleted my account a long time ago.

Yeah, people that are miserable and want to complain.

The hate for Laettner is obligated for this that experienced it.

Drum role please for our member who is named for that.....

#7 is strong with this one... add in any Yankee fan boy nonsense.

Now for #7 I worked some years ago with ex-Duke football player from the early 90s. He said two things: Bobby Hurley was the nicest person he ever met and Laettner was a complete D*ck.
