Let's be honest, we need to do alot of things that won't happen most likely. If/when we lose this game, i thing we need to get to the finals to make the NCAAT
 
Simply awful. No heart, No pulse, No basketball IQ and I will also say it's my feeling that Kevin O got lucky in winning the NC. Yes I like him alot but he had Calhouns players and what has this team accomplished since then ----- Nothing and its going to be the NIT again.

What next !!!!!!
 
Glad I chose to watch the Republican debate over this sh!tshow (yes...that's saying a lot).... Way too much talent to consistently be soooo inconsistently bad. This is an embarrassment.
 
I've been hesitant to question Ollie because this is a flawed team. That said. He couldn't possibly be more ineffective as a coach.

This team is so ill prepared for this game it's laughable.

Uconn teams get better as the season progresses. This team hasn't progressed, but regressed in EVERY way. I'm not even sure they ran one play the entire half. I don't think even think this team knows how to run a play. They certainly know how to pass around the perimeter before chucking up a prayer or just giving the ball away.

Way to play out of the tourney again Uconn.

And we are off!!!
 
Dismal... game over at halftime. Completely outplayed. Trying to figure out if we have more pathetic turnovers than SMU has easy dunks.

There's no way us finishing in 6th place do we make the NCAA's. Self destruct mode down the stretch. Very sad.
 
Bottom line, this is not a good team. We lack good ball handling, quality inside players, basketball smarts, team chemistry,... Tough to watch, but it is what it is. I don't think any coach could have fixed this team's flaws.
 
I'm confused..jack up three after three..forget totally about the interior offense until 19 mins in ..absolutely clueless on defense..what happened to one of the best defenses in the nation? They look like a completely different team.
 
This team is just not good. I actually wonder how they've won 20 games because I have never been this embarrassed watching a team play basketball. Those double screens aren't working on offense, and blocking out apparently has never been taught. How in the hell do you turn it over 10 times in one half of basketball, oh so many questions and just one answer: Dumb basketball players

If you're not watching this game and wondering if a team could be any dumber then I'm not sure what you're seeing. During this run at one time Brimah and Facey put on a clinic as to where no to be. Gibbs dribbled into traffic 2-3 times, Omar Calhoun comes in the game immediately has a wide open 3 and ball fakes :eek: I could go on and on but the truth is this team is not smart enough to participate in March Madness and their balls are raisins. Like a cheap tent - NO one is near an offensive rebound, heck I'm not sure anyone is near a defensive rebound?

Wow, pitiful half, disheartening yet again.

We have like six shot clock violations in one half!

The last one there's two seconds on the shot clock. We inbounds it near half court. Literally nobody moves. No play called. Nobody moves. So we throw it in to our power forward who shoots a turnaround fadeaway three. Not saying that's a great situation or phil Jackson would magically draw up a play that results in a layup. But we don't set a pick. Run a play. Literally Nothing.

How can that not be a coaching issue? I just don't get how people don't see it.

^^ THIS ^^
 
This team is so done unless something changes in a hurry. They either need a big time comeback tonight or to make the championship game in the tournament.

I don't know what you all want KO to do with the back court playing the way it is. Gibbs is playing like he doesn't belong in D1. Purvis isn't playing much better. Adams is playing hurt and scared in his first true hostile environment. Omar is not a reliable ball handler and has been dribbling himself into trouble. And then there's Sam Cassell.

I'm gonna stop you right there. Ollie hasn't been at his best but he is NOT the problem!! Not alot of coaches could make this team great. We are in constant foul trouble, no one can consistently hit shots or drive the lane effectively, and our inside game is often non-existent. And never again say KO got lucky, that team had heart like no other, and that was because KO coached the hell out of those kids. When you have kids like Shabazz, Boat and Giffey, you are gonna look like a better coach than with this roster. Stop it.

Reminds me too much of watching UConn football the last 5 years. :mad:
 
so hard to watch, I wish I could stop

maybe we can start having support meetings during UConn games

Hi everyone, my name is Willie, and I can't stop watching UConn basketball no matter how bad they suck
 
temery must love these games, more traffic (and new people) than any other time
 
I am a Giants fan. So I had that season. I am a Husky fan and I had high hopes. It's bad.
