Could be a football game. Even if said football game was Fleener St vs. South Central Western Louisiana St, WCBB is getting bumped.There are some errors in this schedule. According to uconnhuskies.com, there is no game on 11/30. The only Chattanooga game is on 11/29 and is on SNY. Also, the DePaul game on 12/1 is not shown in this schedule but is on the uconnhuskies.com version, and is supposed to be broadcast by SNY.
Isn't it amazing that there is NO national television for the UConn-Baylor game? It is only available on SNY. And yet the UConn-LSU game (and a later UConn-Tulane game) are on ESPN. So ESPN is missing a game between the #2 and #3 teams in the preseason ranking. What gives here?

Javaman, You have been posting articles, announcements, and breaking news items at a record pace the last few days. Please allow me to thank you for your efforts lately. I know these items do not just fall in your lap. You have to search them out, read them, and verify their authenticity. Believe me, we really appreciate all of the time and effort you donate to the yard. Your posts are timely and accurate (content wise). You help keep us up to date and informed on everything connected with WCBB. Because of you and several other posters, the rest of us don't have to peruse the entire world wide web for breaking news in WCBB. Please be aware that your actions/efforts are not going unnoticed, or unappreciated.
Thanks Java, you da man!!! Two thumbs up and a high five to ya.
I guess Justine Ward will be replacing Kerith on the Geno Show?
I trust that Geno shall treat her as a hostile interviewer? Perhaps she's a spy for Miss Muffet!I realize this may sound a bit nieve, but some of us (specially in other parts of the country) don't know who "Justine Ward" is. I certainly didn't so I googled her. Here's a brief bio I found on her:
Justine Ward is an Anchor/Host and Reporter for SNY in New York City.
Justine joined SNY from SEC country where she was covering news and sports as an Anchor/Reporter for KNWA/Fox 24 in Fayetteville, Arkansas. There she covered breaking news, politics and crime, and the Arkansas Razorbacks, including extensive coverage of the team's bowl appearances after the 2014 and 2015 seasons. She also traveled to cover the American Idol Finale for Nexstar's Fox affiliates across the country.
Justine graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Notre Dame. From there, she made stops in her hometown of St. Louis and in Los Angeles, where she worked in news and also as a print and commercial model while pursuing her journalism career.
Justine is a former competitive Irish dancer and musician. Growing up close to her brother, Justine was also always interested in sports and comes from a very sports-centered family. Justine was captain of her high school girl’s lacrosse team and also played club in college. Justine’s brother Lee went onto play fullback at Stanford University, where he was Captain of the 2014 team. He also had a brief stint in the NFL, getting picked up as an undrafted free agent for the Carolina Panthers.
Justine credits her work ethic and success in part to her family's resiliency in the face of family hardship as a teenager. Justine's family came together to work through tough financial circumstances in the economic downturn following the September 11th terror attacks in 2001. Her Dad went through two corporate downsizings, resulting in the loss of her childhood home. Her parents’ message of perseverance and hard work would serve Justine well in future endeavors.
Well, thanks!
However ...hopefully I won't have to maintain this reporting pace for too much longer. The truth of the matter is I'm stuck at home, and have been for close to two weeks, while I recover from pneumonia. It's a bummer. I'm forced to exist at a much slower and weakened pace than is my norm. Slowly improving though.
But still, I must do something. So UConn WBB gets a lot of my time. It's a low stress endeavor. (good thing we didn't lose to IUP though, that would have been an really unhealthy strain)
Again, though, thanks much for the flowers. I'm pleased that others find the info informative/enjoyable. I would, if roles were reversed. So that's a motivating factor.
Cheers!
