A higher power and master motivation have unlocked aggression in UConn’s big bear

Interesting comment...did you hear the Hurley interview where he was telling our guys to play for each other....very diff culture

Unlike Pitino who opened up in the media how this is Jackson's last year and he'll be pursuing his pro aspirations. Odd way of buidling culture. Hurley builds community, Pitino builds mercenaries and treats more like a pro team. That's why they fold once things get tough.

I could watch a full length feature film of just Hurley huddles back to back and nothing else

Cool. You are super cool. From the dude who critiques every post.

No, just you and RuffRuff because you both have so many takes it's just impossible to bite your tongue all the time.

Tarris's energy the past couple of games has shifted

Me? I think you’re lost.

I'd rather my center be a heathen and a sinner, but hey whatever works.

Hurley's entire postgame presser could be summed up with just...

Tarris

I have 1 small issue with last night's game, and it applies to other games. I just don't care for Braylon taking 3 pointers from 5 feet beyond the arc. They just don't go in very frequently and there must be a better shot available. Alex has earned a few feet behind the arc, but Braylon has not. The 3s Brayloin did hit were much closer to the line and that's where I'd prefer he take them, at this point.
Outside of that, fantastic outcome and well played by everyone. It seems that the more invested Tarris is, the better the team plays.

I changed my mine on those shots because the rebounds bounce so far out, most of the time we get the offensive rebound.

Wasn’t able to see game, going by Yard comments both on Chat and Post game. So we didn’t push the pace?

I'd say we were opportunistic.

Sorry, I missed it. I saw someone had recorded the Villanova game and was hoping someone recorded this one.

It’s a great day for content

 

[DBlock]

I may be wrong but it seems like Hurley had other players handle inbounding the ball besides Alex on occasion. Our inbounding seemed better tonight as a whole.

Mike captured the extent of that disaster for SJU in a visceral way no print writeup could match.

 

[Iluvsuebird]

One of the best performances by a UConn center since Emeka.

Wow you forgetting about DC. He was an eraser at the rim. And pretty dang unstoppable with the lob.

He will be at Georgia next year. Little birdie.
