Tarris Reed Jr Out vs Arizona

Sure, but these OOC games are huge and we have a tomato can coming up. If he can even limp through this one, would be better than the alternatives. If it was announced until now, was likely close to playable. Kind of thing where back in the 90s, kids would play. Today's mushy types don't have the grit.

This game is huge. Hopefully our 6th man (crowd), is something and we get some suprisingly magical performances

Y'all have no cajones. Next man #$k up. The crowd wills us to victory
Wish it was that simple. Reed is probably the last guy we could lose for this game. Fans and next guy up is not going to will us to victory. Unless we hit a ton of 3s this will be a tough game to win.
 
This will make it extremely difficult to win tonight. We are now decided underdogs. Fight the good fight. Hope for the best. They will really need the crowd tonight.
 
Our backup center is better than their starter. Reibe for 25, AK for 10, and a splash of Koroma!

Crowds have willed lesser teams against greater teams to victory.

I’m bummed but still super excited for the game. In my opinion we all now have a built in reason to be far less disappointed with a very possible loss. I still think a win is ours for the taking, though. Anything can happen. Let’s go Huskies!!!

Yeah love when the woodwork says “next man up” as if it’s a movie. Tarris was huge in this one - this will need to be a bit like Florida last year where we outscheme, stretch them out, but also get hot, and see an unsuspecting player or two play out of their mind.

Crowd and home court will be huge here.
 
Explains why Tarris was a limited factor end of BYU game.

I’m Not watching. It’s going to be a massacre. I’d rather rewatch the Duke/Kansas game from yesterday.
You people are something else. We beat Michigan St handily without Reed. Really don't see why we can't play with Arizona. Massacre, really?
 
Reibe is very talented. Let’s see if he can start in the game. Don’t lose hope yet.
 
Biggest key tonight is just having our bigs not give fouls away. A made basket is often better than them fouling with our lessened depth. I think they can be “ok” and hold the line for a game, they don’t need to do more than that and play outside of themselves. Doubt we see the Turkey kid, he’s not anywhere close to ready. Think we see some AK at the 5 if needed and some Furphy minutes to get some extra size out there on the wing.Going to need a huge shooting night & get this game into the 80s on offense, prolly our best chance to win is that way.

Is Furphy back?
 
Definitely the BYU game. I was there, saw it and saw the difference after he fell.

Suprising he can't just muscle this one out and then sit against Bryant. Throw some darned anti inflammatory in there. His presence alone would make a difference, totally different team without him.
Didn't look like he was cut out from below from the opponent (Robert Wright) but close. It could have been a lot worse. I think the announcers were talking about him landing on his tailbone, not his ankle. That he was going to be very sore the next day.

Ridiculous take. You have zero idea as to extent of the injury and it’s lame to suggest that Reed, who just came back from a different injury, doesn’t have sufficient grit to play.
Overstatement - but he played on it after the injury.
 
Did a single reporter ask Hurley about Reed during media availability yesterday? Seems kinda weird considering the shape we saw him in at the conclusion of the BYU game.

Krivas is very solid but he's not going to beat you by himself, he's not that type of player from all the games I've watched of his. The problem is the rebounding. Reed is UConn's best rebounder and Zona absolutely crashes the glass.
Yeah, Krivas is solid, but the offense doesn't go through him. The only thing is if he has Karaban guarding him 1v1, he can overpower Karaban and score near the basket kind of the way Kalkbrenner did last year a few times. And of course, the rebounding like you mentioned will require all 5 in a small lineup to chip in and snag the rebounding-no leaking out on fast breaks by the guards.
 
But he’s not a back to the basket type of big. They don’t rely on him to score We should be fine defensively. It’s not having Reed as a dump down option that scares me. And rebounding. Reibe has the ability
Reibe will be tested early and often. Good way for him to grow up in a hurry. This could help even more down the road.

Box out. Box out. Box out.

That's the mentality I am sure the players will have. By no means is this game a forgone conclusion to a loss. UConn can do this, especially if Solo catches fire behind the arc. Here's hoping to the Basketball Gods that happens to Solo.

Good luck getting that attitude in this place after the game.

It's a goofy shtick that he does to make people forget that he wanted Hurley fired two weeks before they won the national championship. Just an absolute bozo.
