For you young uns out there, go to "tcf's stuff" at the top of the page and go to the Husky Games links and watch the 1990 #5 Syracuse and # 2 Georgetown games at the "Hartford Civic Center" and see what a great home court advantage that place can be and how all this started.  We (students) didn't get buses to the games through the school - we got there for every game and made it as loud as possible.  We were coming off an NIT season and picked to finished pretty low in the Big East.  UConn was started off 0-2 in the league but won 3 in a row against unranked Pitt, Nova and SHU.  It was those two games where UConn burst on the national scene with JC.

I think we are starting that climb with Hurley - it'll take some time but a good first step would be to fill the XL on Sunday and make it LOUD!

P.S. - and watch that Henefeld guy for UConn - he was only here for 1 year but man what an impact he had

P.P.S. - when you are done watching those two HCC games, watch the opening game at Gampel vs. St. John's just because it's great to know your history.
