Should we retire Clingan's number?

[Palatine]

He's more than just a tremendously impactful basketball player, he has become the face of the program and the state. It hard to even think about the Huskies without seeing the seven foot, three inch, unicorn from Bristol. His impact on the team, the university and the state has been huge. I think it is an honor well deserved.

 

[Marat]

Yeah it was retired last week. Number 32.

 

[Scoe]

I understand the sentimental feelings but let’s focus on this season and focus on Marquette. Why must we always talk about the future and never the present.

Cant end a thread better than that!

 

[ucinnc]

No

Seems like this year needs to play out before we talk about these sorts of things. This is a good way to jinx the team.

I'm going to guess the OP's post was sarcastic. Hard to tell on here sometimes.

There is a time for everything this is not the time to retire lingons number. So yes I agree with you.

Too early, revisit the second week of April.

 

[Dove]

I get it. You're excited.

 

[August_West]

I get it. You're excited.

Love DC, but he has played a fraction of the minutes over his entire UConn career than someone like Kemba or Shabazz played in individual seasons.

Let’s just enjoy Clingan and appreciate his incredible contribution to this program.

Everyone with more Championships than Boeheim should have their number retired.
The guy is a legend.

Rip Hamilton had to wait 25 years but this guy gets a few layups and blocks one shots with his forehead and gets a banner?

We might run out of numbers

 

[CL82]

If we retired his number, how would people call him?

 

[Captbluefin]

Pump the brakes

 

[IndyLives]

Let's see DC lead us to number 6 then we can talk..

Yes, that's all Clingan does. Dingbat

 

[metsfan2323]

If Clingan keeps playing like he did today (especially the passing) his draft stock will soar. Top 5 or higher won't be out of the question, he looked special today.

Especially Pal. Still, this was well played.

I’m really disappointed you didn’t even respond to my request to put something behind your dumb prediction about today.

 

[Scoe]

Live back in the past with the guys who played for us, and enjoy the moment with guys that are currently playing for us.
