UCONN Doesn’t Have a Plane to Get to Phoenix (Merged Thread)

[Kolumbo]

The plane just took off. Sounds like a lot of time sitting on the tarmac deicing.

Hopefully they have safe travels. They could have called it a night early and fly later today but hindsight.

Lets see if they have a hotel when they arrive

I have a fear of flying... just glad they're ok tbh

They better push back media obligations heavy. This is ridiculous.

It will be landing at about 6:30 EST.

When they get there, there probably will be no busses waiting to get them to the hotel.

4:23 AM. Yes, I have insomnia.

Absolutely disgusting they should be exempt from media day the NCAA owes them at least that.

Phoenix is a 2 hour time difference, not 3. It’s mountain time. FYI.

Arizona does not observe daylight savings time so this time of year it’s 3 hours behind.

If I'm Hurley, since he's a madman, I'd come out alone but say "my players are getting some well needed sleep/rest, it's just me here, sorry not sorry." Take whatever minor fine and/or slap on the wrist.

Really… allegiant. They couldn’t go with a major airline?.

If I win the $1bil Powerball, I’ll pledge $25mil of it to buy UConn a plane.

The FDuke 1…

Yet another chapter where we get screwed over by the NCAA. If it wasn’t for our history I would say just a series of unfortunate circumstances, series of mechanical issues and weather. I guess the lesson here is we need to have a plan A or B that we control and do due diligence on at important junctures rather than relying on an organization that continually disappoints us.

I knew they kept the same type of time all year but thanks for letting us know the final result.

I was Uconn 08' but don't have the ability to get planes chartered for sports teams.

 

[Khal Drogo]

Not surprised. The organization is a bunch of clowns that gets by on the least amount of effort as possible. Some national reporter should press the issue but they won't.

Sounds like the perfect employer for me

Are we checking the 3 point lines?
