or Ian Eagle. The interviews at halftime are now 90% lads. But maybe that’s just me.
I watched all four games in person with pretty good seats. All I can say is this. I know the game fairly well played in high school and coached for about ten years. My wife played in college was all state at Bristol Eastern in the late 90’s. I think she attended every Auriemma summer camp for like six years. So she knows the game pretty well herself.
I think we may have found the biggest idiot on The Boneyard, and that's saying something.
. He now is my favorite all time UConn player! We need to stop complaining about how we played. It struck me how focused this team was pre game. I shared a few words and a fist bump with Kimani while they were watching OT from the tunnel entrance at the end of the Northwestern/FAU game. No coach or player was smiling pre game they were just focused. This coach and staff are amazing.
It is. When you don't have a hanging, some idiot ends up sacrificing themselves for mojo. Last year it was at halftime during the Iona game, the dude who was calling for Hurley to be fired. Instead of a mojo hanging, it's a mojo suicide. Seems to work just as well though.
As we progress through the Tournament-Going to need his contributions to be successful. Giving Donovan a rest to keep him fresh is invaluable. Getting rebounds -through whatever combination of players-will be critical.
The coaching staff does the unseen work but they are probably the best around. Would love to keep them intact longer.I know why Tristen did not have a towel around his neck like Clingan
I really hope he stays. It has to be just our depth and perhaps his on ball defense or difficulty following the defensive rotations. But he can rebound, I think he has been under rated in this area but he has gotten much better. Perhaps he has gotten a little stronger and he looks every bit of 6’9” and is very long.
You must have missed a lot of games over the years, especially in 2004...
"Sticky balls" can do that to you according to the announcers.......
His on-ball defense really hasn't been bad this season. The only two weaknesses I see are that he's a little slow in switches (but always recovers) and tends to bite on every fake.
He's hallucinating. Just rewatched and Newton banked in a 3 to make it 19-4, Stetson airballed a 3 and then Castle made a layup to make it 21-4
Everyone loses sometimes, and sometimes terribly.
Lol. The shot was so bad he imagined it went it.
Is this the first time someone posted something that didn't actually happen on the internet.? I'm shocked!!! Lol
But it seems we do agree it is his defense keeping him on the bench. The only comment I will make is this. With all the three guard lineups we see , could he stay in front of a big guard or athletic wing. Because when he plays it is not usually against the other teams best. Even though it looks like he is getting bigger/stronger still don’t think he has the strength to play a stretch 4.
