True Freshman

[UCFBfan]

I ask this with all due respect: Why does one have to be in attendance at every single athletic related event in order to be classified by others as merely interested in UConn football? Fans come in all shapes, sizes, socioeconomic backgrounds, etc., but unless someone gives their UConn attendance resume' before each post (and heaven forbid if it doesn't include perfect attendance at 100% of home games, bowl games, and select road games), that person is not a "true" fan and their opinion is discounted? I routinely miss one game a year for whatever reason (Wedding, birth of child, vacation, etc.) and I haven't been to a UConn basketball game in almost 2 years. However, there is no way you can't call me a true fan.

I think if a UConn fan is posting on this site (trolls and fans of other teams notwithstanding), their fandom is almost beyond reproach, until they prove through their postings that they are not fans (You know who they are).

Please don't misunderstand me, I'm not trying to single anyone out. I am truly interested in a logical answer.

I can't like this post enough!

Tweet today from Don Bassity, UHouston's Assistant AD for Football Communications. Obviously, it can be interpreted in two completely different ways . . . one good (the way he spun it) and one not so good, for them. Still, 10 freshmen on the two deep?

Back in February it was said the 2013 signing class could be Houston's best. So far 10 true freshmen in two deep speaks of that.

If Edsall redshirts anyone this year, he will never coach them.

I'm with you, my friend.

I will take ALL Husky fans of ALL varieties. Come one, come all! And as I've always said before and will continue to say until the day I die: Once a Husky, always a Husky!!!

A true uconn fan would only marry a woman who was also a uconn fan, who would be proud that her water broke during the game. This probably happens 4 or 5 times per game in Tuscaloosa.

My wife was a year behind me at UConn.
