The thing that baffles me is the posters who say how great UConn men's basketball is, how they should be in the Big East, and how bad the AAC is for UConn basketball. UConn is now a cupcake team for the AAC teams. That is the sad thing.

We've finished 3rd, 6th, 6th, and are on our way to somewhere round 8th.

When we got into this conference, we talked about how embarrassing it was to be here and that we should dominate it like Gonzaga dominates the WCC. We've been exactly middle of the road. We have shown zero evidence that we are above this conference, that we don't belong. That's the embarrassment.

I like Vance continuing to use that spin move into the lane. Nice compliment to his outside game...

Go support Duke or UK then.
Men's basketball is supposed to be the crown jewel of UConn athletics. This team is clearly not and the program is in trouble. Deny it all that you want, but I don't see it any differently. These guys are hanging their heads. Not even listening to Ollie in the timeout any more. Take off your national flag blue tinted lenses and see the truth. A lot of posters here are clinging to past glory and not seeing what is before their eyes.

Anyone who isn't deeply concerned about this program right now deserves to be nominated for an Academy Award next week. We had a player throw the ball out of bounds a couple minutes ago because no one came back to the ball. But nothing to worry about.

It's bad when our best option is Facey! Ollie is back to sitting down for the majority of the game. Body language is sometimes the loudest form of communication!

It's one thing to be awful on offense as we have been all year, but our defense tonight has been literally terrible. Kids are not playing hard. Jalen in particular should be very ashamed of his defense.

Does ESPN even show this matchup on a main network anymore starting next year?

The worst game of the year for Adams, Brimah, and Purvis just happened on the same night. Tonight. It's unfortunate, because in the midst of this crap fest, Facey and Vance are having nice nights. Particularly Facey...

This is like watching a horror movie with our favorite actors. I love watching them act (i.e. play) but hate the script.

This is when football guys who put up with all the "drop it" talk from the hoops forum stop in...just as hard for us to watch.

A football game thread would have a lot more activity than this....and not just because the games are longer.

You wouldn't have a football team to root for without these guys though, back from where you came.

Without the guys on the court now? I don't think they had anything to do with it.

Football is a big part of the reason why we're in this mess.

Yes, because football is responsible for basketball recruiting and such.

Without the guys that put the jersey on before them.

Actually, in an indirect way yes. But that's a discussion for another time.
