Liked for the thumb slogan. Is that yours or - more likely - am I just not paying attention?

was very popular with the patriots... but that was a long long time ago

It was coined by the Steelers in the late 70's after they won their fourth SB in 1979.

LOL!!! Our FT shooting were terrible!!! Games were won or lost based on FT!!!

Our FT shooting "were" not terrible...........except the 12/21 (57.1%) in the win over Buffalo.

For the year (total) it's 75.4%, a number any coach would be happy with. Take out the Buffalo game and its 78.5 %. The best game was Xavier at 25/27 (92.6%).

We lost to St. Joseph's because of turnovers and 2 point shooting percentage while killing them on the line and shooting much better on threes and lost to Xavier, in spite of killing them on the line, due to horrible field goal shooting percentages.

I remember Jim very well, he was a UConn legend. Jim was highly recruited and UConn was lucky to have him. Jim, Tony Hanson, Jeff Carr, Randy LaVigne. Jim also played with Corny and Mike his last two years. Just trying to respect the guys name, nothing personal. If I'm not older than you are, I'm right behind you. I know Calhoun put UConn on the map, but those mid and late 70's teams with Abromaitis, Tony Hanson, Corny and Mike helped as well, at least with the Big East invite.

i wasn’t quite a Uconn fan yet. My dad introduced me to this called college basketball via Abro. We were from the same neighborhood not that we knew them but that was my introduction to the college game.

I well remember the cheers when Corny signed. Everyone was excited that a top prospect had decided to stay home. the press was full of statements about how his signing signaled a change in UConn recruiting. Another overlooked fact from those days is that Dee Rowe never went anywhere. He welcomed and supported JC. I believe that was the beginning of the UConn family manifested in thier relationship. Also two names missing from your list Wes and Toby.
