Survey: Who do you hate the most?

[David 76]

I've said this in the past too, but the reality is, without Bazz, without Kemba, without Oak, we are sitting at 1 NC too.

Bazz, Kemba & Oak were not Melo when they walked on campus. Our guys have developed and, almost always (sorry Rudy) been motivated

True, but the point is, if you take a superlative player off a championship team, they are not going to win. Great players make coaches look good. And JB did recruit Melo.

Yuck, I can't believe I back my self into a defend Syracuse situation.

 

[Stvbs1124]

I hate the Cuse and will always hate them the most outside of anywhere Calipari coaches mostly because of their fans.

OTP. JB does the LEAST with the best players in the country. Cant't motivate his players to win and succeed. He is the ultimate COMPILER when it comes to his record. Absent Melo he has never performedon the big stage. Vermont, Richmond, Dayton--- the list is endless. By the way no ZONE team has ever won the big one, (absent Melo) yet he continues to use it expecting a diff result!!!!! I too miss playing them and beating their ASS but that does not change my view of him and his prog.

To say he does the least with the best or he can't motivate is ridiculous. Do you realize how hard it is to win a NC? It really does not make sense that we have 4 in 15 years; I feel blessed, makes me feel ok being a Knicks fan. And he can't motivate? How do you know? Did you play for him? When they went on that Big East run with Gerry Mac they looked pretty motivated. Melo's NC run the same.

The one thing you are right about is that he will forever struggle to win with the zone. With the correct game plan and talent it is very beatable. But he HAS proven he can win with it. You can throw Melo's name around all you want, one player doesn't win a championship. He won with his system and that's why he believes he can do it again. What do you expect him to do? 30 years in he should just change his whole coaching style?

 

[Kitaman]

Over the last two years Pitt ( scum) as seen a meteoric rise up my list. I blame them and their back stabbing pres for the break up of the best basketball conference on earth. I can not dispose them enough.

So you're cool with Georgetown now?

 

[WeAreUCONN]

I picked Cuse.
Hate is a strong word.
I don't really " Hate Them "
I just Wish them the Worst.

DUKE is a Team I actually HATE and prolly should have Voted for

 

[huskyharry]

I was gonna make this point last night but I was too tired and figured someone else would do it for me, lol. So thanks.

Boeheim is a great coach and I have a ton of respect for him, even though I hate Syracuse more than any other program.

Wow...so the whole covering up and enabling a pedophile doesn't alter your opinion of him?

 

[August_West]

Are you claiming Jim Boeheim is not coach? Because the Hall of Fame, along with most people who know anything about basketball and a whole lot of wins would disagree with you. I have been a UCONN fan my entire life; but I don't understand why that means I am supposed to hate Jim Boeheim? I honestly miss Syracuse and Jim Boeheim, I miss playing them every year. If I have to hate a school then it's Kentucky; and it's not even really the school, it's their glorified aau coach

Jim Boeheim could be the most overrated coach of all time. My good friend is a Syracuse alum who works for ESPN and even HE thinks that.

 

[Danzz]

Still BC but less and less as they become even more insignificant.

 

[gampelcrazies]

Probably going to be Syracuse

This is a low blow. I don't know what (if anything) Bernie Fine did, but implying Jim Boeheim is the same as Joe Paterno is pretty ignorant and shameful. I've never blocked anyone before, but you're the first. Congrats.

Nothing defensible about what Joe Paterno did, but he paid the price for his actions more ways than one.

When the accusations first came to light in the early 2000s, the Syracuse administration conducted an internal investigation and kept all news of it out of the press. This occurred while the Statute of Limitations was still in effect and Bernie Fine could have been prosecuted, if charges had been brought to the proper officials.

When the accusations come to light a couple of years ago, the first thing Boeheim does is hit the news and absolutely blast the victim in the news. Then the tape recording of Mrs. Fine comes out that supports the accusations and in short order Fine is fired and Boeheim makes a half baked apology. The Chief of Police states that the evidence was credible and a criminal charge would have been pursued if the events had occurred within the Statute of Limitations.

The honorable thing for Boeheim to do would have been to resign at that moment. The fact that he has stayed on and acted as if nothing has happened is disgusting. He was the Head Coach when the abuse occurred against Ball Boys, who should have been under his protection, sometimes in hotel rooms while on official Syracuse trips, paid for by Syracuse funds. How anyone can think Boeheim has no responsibility in this matter is mind boggling!

I'm somewhere down this road, too. The whole situation, and how it was handled, left me with a bad perception of Boeheim and the Syracuse program.

Boeheim is an outstanding coach, just doesn't have the success in the postseason that our beloved Huskies have. We've had our share of issues, but it seems like there have been even darker and more disturbing things going on under Boeheim's watch.

 

[Huskies4ever]

For me it's between Duke and Kentucky. Duke for their elitism and the media like Dickie V. who kiss their feet, and Kentucky because of Squid and having to hear every year about their recruiting classes and how they're gonna win it all. If Squid wasn't there, I wouldn't hate Kentucky, but until then, my vote: Kentucky.

The thing is, we've owned both programs head-to-head in the NCAA's the past 16 seasons. Duke to me is an after thought, except the media love. However, there is no coach I dislike more than The Squid.

 

[husky8273]

the sole mention of UConn in the posts was from one loser who went to school in RI and finds CT worthless

 

[mauconnfan]

Like huskies4ever Duke is no longer "hated" we just beat them. We don;t really get to have much communication with their snobs…….errr fans so it's not like the Cuse where we know how they are.
It's Cuse in a landslide for me……..they wandered into enemy territory a few years back and their fans are the most ignorant in the game!

 

[pj]

I voted Kentucky, and it's because of Calipari. Would have been Duke 10 years ago, not any more. Don't feel anything about Syracuse, and don't mind that we're not playing them either, except that I think playing their zone helps prepare you for the tourney.

 

[temery]

I hate "who do you hate posts", the most.

 

[dogfan96]

Dook, no question

 

[CallMeBruce]

BC, for me. They were super-obnoxious when we played them, they've been worse since, AND I live right near BC, and their students all belong in prison.

 

[Rocktheworld]

Just 56 more games played against Syracuse and they are the most played opponent of all time for UConn.

and...?

 

[junglehusky]

Here are the results. Yes, CT hates Syracuse most, good job. And Mass hates BC... hahahaha!

edit - image no worky, try this.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

At first I said it had to be one of Duke or Kentucky, but seeing as they seem to be our good luck charm..... I'll probably go with Syracuse. Those two are just responsible for too many wonderful memories.

 

[Matrim55]

It's a shame nobody hates us most. I guess all they must feel is admiration:
