Taliek Brown Joining Staff

[Hans Sprungfeld]

When he saw that 5 people chose him as their NYC recruit answer in the Sheep(Reverse) poll he knew he had to bring that smile back to Storrs.
My 63-point sacrifice. You're welcome.

The Courant article about him said that he actually came back to UConn and got a degree in political science in 2013. Pretty cool to see that.

Yes he was at UConn taking classes over the summer for past few years. I believe you need your degree to become a coach at this level. Probably what he was planning on doing

Shooting coach?

Only from 30 feet out.

Can't wait to the see the pics of JA's eyes rolling when TB tells story of hitting a 30' shot in tournament.

Genius move by Hurley since, if BY history is any indication, he will instantly be blamed for everything bad that happens.

(Edit: Actually thought this was trolling until I clicked on the thread.)

Will he sit on the bench during games for this role?

I jumped so high when he hit that shot.

For some reason, that shot is the moment sticks out in my mind when I think of "UConn at MSG." I know there are bigger, more important moments, but it is what it is.

I loved that UConn-Pitt rivalry of the early 00's.

RIP mau.

Welcome back to the Dog Pound, Taliek!!!

(I know, I know...he never left...)

That game always jumps out to me when I think of games where we looked our best, a game years before against Virginia also jumps out.

Damage control?

Looks more like continuing the damage repair to me.

 

[JMick]

Damage control?

Would you just leave the board already?

A solid choice to strengthen the metro NY area for recruiting.

That was such a great game. I remember Brandin Knight hurting his knee, then staying in the game to put up a halfcourt shot at the end of the first OT that just barely missed. Then Taliek's shot.

I loved that team.

@JMick, Keep living in your cocoon.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Hurley continues to impress. I really think we could be in store for a quick turnaround similar to Ohio St.'s this year after letting Matta go and bringing in Holtmann.

The difference there is that Thad Matta is a good coach. Much better than the guy we replaced.

Damage control?

You related to Dickie V?

 

[JMick]

You related to Dickie V?

More likely he's related to Ollie

@JMick, Keep living in your cocoon.

You don't have to @ someone when you quote them. Just a tip.
