He got freaking clocked! You’re 100% wrong here.

You were right. During the game it looked like he got hit by Lewis's arm from a back swing. But he got clocked by a shoulder to the head.

UConn may be resembling a championship team, just not the one you’d expect

UConn’s present team has drawn comparisons to 2024 Huskies, but more closely resembles 2023 title-winning outfit (above) with its ability to...

During this stretch of ugly wins against inferior teams, the bench has contributed nothing offensively. Ross and Stewart seem determined to give up the ball as quickly as they get it. They are not even looking while making back cuts even though they are sometimes open.

I don’t see better alternatives on the team. if they can consistently play solid defense, rebound, and not turn the ball over … and every once in a while have a nice scoring game, I will take that. Both look better this year to me.

Maybe if Furphy hadn’t been hurt at the start of the year he could have been an option, but missing that time prevented him from being ready for this level of play. If Smith continues to struggle maybe we see some Millendar minutes

That's what I saw a shoulder to the head.

But there is also an arm across the throat. It doesn't looks like it from this angle. I would like to see a second angle.

I saw a head to the shoulder. BM reaching in, incidental contact. Going frame-by-frame, Villanova guy tried pretty hard to twist away to avoid contact.

Travis? It kills me.

@tennmike, I would like to apologize for this. I hate when people call the players by the wrong name or continually spell their names wrong. But I looked it up and every other time you've posted about Reed you called him Tarris so either it was just a brain fart, which happens to all of us, or it was indeed a spell correct. So I would like to say sorry to you.

By the way, prayers to Mullins for a quick recovery. I will say this: i have no godly idea who we (people 50 and older) ever made it to adulthood. I remember when bike helmets had not been invented. Cars did not have seatbelts. And for those of us who played sports, getting your bell rung was a weekly occurrence. I don’t know what is happening to the human body, but this generation seems different. Like I said, don’t know how we made it to adulthood. But praying for this kid because he is a kid every parent would be proud of. Heal fast bud!

Yeah, all those hits to the head back in the day, and I don't see any...um...now what was I going say? I guess it couldn't have been that important.
