UConn's Big East Rival Will Be ............

Just responding to Friar's posr...

I admit that I can't tell a strong team from a bagel...but his assertions in his post do not seem to play out in tournament reality.

Already posted that UConn is better off in the Big East...but am not convinced that the conference is a juggernaut. Yes...the conference has had NC success with Nova,,,hopefully the Huskies will elbow in to the top of the BE.

You are going have to beat men to do it! LOL
 
@Zissou, my buddy posted a picture of himself social distancing with his 96 year old father who is wearing a Nova basketball shirt. So we started talking hoops. I knew they had a connection with Wright through Tom Pecora. Wright has gotten them tix to the final 4 and still calls my friend's 96 year old dad to check in on him frequently. Jay is one of the good guys in sports and pure class.
 
I actually am well prepared to be a fan of the Big East....

I still know the holy days, the altar boy's responses in the mass in latin, had 12 years of parochial education...although I haven't been in a church for nigh 50 years...it would be a homecoming of sorts.

Bless me Father for I have sinned...my last confession was when Lyndon Johnson was in office....

Wait a second JB how would you know if it's more fun with them than a Houston or Tulsa fan? I mean we never saw a fan here did we from the AAC minus kobe of Cincy? :D

Lol. Very true. I stand corrected

Nobody in the conference has your track record so you are just going to have to lower yourself to allow for trash talking or you can just sit on your throne and reminisce about the past.

Ok. Fair enough. I’ll engage in the bait so those beneath us can have some fun. Lol. All good. This year shud be a blast.

We wanted UConn back. We are glad to have you back.

Are you speaking on behalf of the entire conference or have you decided on addressing us in the first person plural from here on out?

Put your kids on a weight program will you. It’s like a walking pencil show.

Providence Avg. Weight = 206 lbs
UConn Avg Weight = 198 lbs

8 lbs...really? You think that’s the difference between a man and a pencil show? That quality Providence education speaking volumes let me tell ya.

Well what do you expect from a school that teaches that there's a man in the sky who controls the universe?

Personally, I am enjoying the mild smack talk. Let them yap while they can. The lead dog is coming back.
 
I personally I think PC and UConn split next yr with PC winning at home 72-58...... Hurley and Cooley steal the headline.

I think your recent addition transfers will help keep them both close but we win both:

105-46 at home.

99-67 at the Dunk.


:eek: :cool:;):oops:

You won’t score 105 in both games combined.
 
Way too early Big East poll.

To bring some reality back to this smack talk, list your prediction 1 to 11.
 
Zissou, I wonder if Nova would ever play Uconn at the Pavilion?

Hard to say, we are scouring the portal for mid major talents. . Nova and Creighton atop and DePaul in the rear.

I hope not! The Pavilion sux.

Weekend games at Wells Fargo (Sixers/Flyers/Nova), and weekday games at the Pavilion. I’d think they will make an effort to play UConn on a weekend. Schedules aren’t always optimized though.

_____________

my take:

1. Creighton
2. UConn *
3. Villanova **
4. Providence ***
5. St. John’s ****
6. Seton Hall
7. Marquette
8. Butler
9. Ex- zavier *****
10. Dah... Paul
11. Georgetown ******


* UConn will pick up where is left off pre divorce. Great to have rivalries back again. Don;t underestimate how tough NBE is.
** Bey and JRE may not return next season.
*** Like him or not, Cooley's team seemingly always surprises.
**** Mike Anderson is the first real coach SJU has had in the last 3 hires. His team played well with short bench this season. Looks like Figurgua (sp?) may return, will add Posh Alexander and 3 other for longer bench.
***** Grumbling alums calling for Travis' job
****** Ewing last season ?
