2013 UConn fan of the year!!! WOOOO.

But if you want to watch a boring UConn 40 point victory instead of an exciting, competitive game go watch the girls. And I don't mean this as a shot at them, just stating how they are head and shoulders better than anyone else.

our fans are going to have to have some thick skin if they wanna get through this season, the team you watched is the team that you will see all year get used to it. This team isnt that good but they are tough.

Theyve been better than 14 teams so far. Not too shabby in my opinion.

Yep and we have had alot of close games which is good going into next year.

ban op imo. seems like a fair price to pay if you post 'team sucks' in the middle of an eventual win
I don't think that's fair.

He was clearly going for the reverse jinx, and it worked. We should all be thanking him.

Final four next year my ass. They'll be lucky to make the tournament

Can't rebound
Can't attack a zone (what else is new)
Neil's sucks (what happened)
Wolff can't stay out of foul trouble.
Boat and Bazz can't stay healthy
Can't rebound
Can't rebound...
Ollie resembles this kid... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=good job good effort&source=web&cd=5&ved=0CEMQtwIwBA&url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7io6gs5A7U&ei=bBYLUYfUFfCu0AHs6oHwDA&usg=AFQjCNHAjDMjuS5MfaxXKVtg0JpuojZoag&bvm=bv.41867550,d.dmQ

This team may end up with a better Big East regular season record than any of the last 3 teams, including one that won a NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP, and another that had two first round picks. And they're a heck of a lot tougher than 2 of those 3 teams.

I think UConn will play next year with a chip on their shoulder the size of Mount Everest. There will be NO TEAM in the United States of America more dangerous then UConn next year. I believe Ollie will strategically play that card. Folks we have a lot to look forward to next year. Bazz will return as will the BoatShow. Wolf & Olander with all their imperfections will become seniors becoming more consistent and serviceable. We will get periodic contributions from Facey and Brimah with just the right amount of consistency to create the Texas barbecue sauce we need on our ribs to reach the Final Four at Texas stadium next April. It is going to be a feast of monumental proportions!

I love how if we don't blow teams out than were obviously not good at all........as a matter of fact "we suck". Coming of the most tumultuous offseason possible, losing people left and right, coaches and players alike. Couple that with contract disputes, a major deficiency in the size component and "we suck because we are 14-5. Those who feel that way need to get over the fact that we will have to win close games this year. This is an immensely gutty team, we shoot well from beyond the arc which has always been the case this decade, we are a great foul shooting team, we have solid role players, an awesome coach, and instinctual lightning quick basketball players. Now do they make mistakes? Yes. Does Boatright get out of control, and does Daniels disappear sometimes, and do we not d rebound all that well, and does Calhoun play like a freshman sometimes? Yes. Yes. Yes. and Yes. But what it comes down to is all of that equates to 14-5. And if we were tourney eligible we'd be looking at 4 or 5 seed, no where near a bubble team. Lets keep things in perspective and be positive.

How many minutes did he play in those games, out of curiosity? You can't foul out if you're benched for being in foul trouble
You can't make a dumb post if you're not on the boneyard. Now, make that happen.

You do realize that 98% of these monkeys will not know the difference between his handle and yours', don't you?

You should find him and smash his computer before he does any more damage to your reputation.

Dude, I think you need to relax. This is not a normal UConn year. I don't think many fans went into this season with any expectations the team would be real good. They've won 14 out of 19 games and been right there in 4 of the 5 losses (I'm not counting just a half with Louisville so that's the one game they weren't very competitive). They play hard and they have heart and balls. I'm not sure what else you could be looking for from this team.

About next year. There are certain pieces of this team that aren't very good. There are pieces that are very good and will be better next year. Fix those things that aren't very good with some players who play their role well and I can see how this team could be very good next year. It's not like they're getting blown out every game.

What reputation? I certainly see no difference between the two.

Everyone is so sensitive on here. If he's still buying season tickets and showing up to games, he can say whatever he wants. Fans say things, some smart, some dumb. Move on.
Would you consider flaming on him a smart thing or a dumb thing!:)

Players and teams have standards to follow! Same with posters. If a poster can't stand the heat, that poster should not give any! He can flame at the team all he wants. It's a fan's prerogative. And others can flame on him. Their prerogative! It would be a disservice to move on. He wouldn't get the chance to desensitize. :)

You know, I did actually think about that for a moment.

And then I realized I just don't give a duck* what these nutjobs think about me.

I wanted to make some similar point about you becoming guilty by association! Fishy beat me to it. I agree you don't have to care what the 98% say. Just what us 2%'s write.

Wolf just fouled FYI
No, he was CALLED for a foul. You may not think there is a difference, but at least twice he DID NOT FOUL. Those refs sucked. Jim Calhoun wouldn't have made it to halftime, and I wouldn't have blamed him one bit.

I don't know about anyone else, but this year (and any other year UConn doesn't make the NCAA's) I cross out Lipscomb or Iona or SW Bums State and put in UConn as a 16 and every time they run the table and win. Every time I never win money.

we will have to land a couple NBA quality bigs to be a final 4 team next year and I don't see Bazz staying another season.

Where's he going? To play in League Siberia, because he won't sniff the NBA, atleast not after this season. If anything the kid needs another year, he's not even close to being ready to make that jump to the big show.
