Wednesday vs BU- no Cupcake

[jibsey]

Was just noticing that they beat Northeastern by 2, who beat us when we were at full strength with Larrier and Gilbert. This game will be easier to win if we don't go down 12 in the first 3 minutes. Wonder what KO is planning right now?

I watched some of the NE game and thought that both would be tough outs for us, although hopefully wins lol.

Anyway a couple skilled bigs who can pass and work the lane, blocks but they're not huge maybe 6-7/6-8. Some very nice pieces, can shoot it a little nut just play basketball fundamentally. Our guys will be working to win this one I am sure, if they do!

With the team as it is right now - there are no cupcakes
It will be a work in progress
I am looking forward to the team maturing and getting better

I'm intrigued to see how we come out of the gate.

Planning ?? We don't need no stinking planning

Yea but is it a must win though?

Chaminade was no cupcake for us. Take it from there!

We already won. UConn has never lost when I have attended a game.

Please inform us where you are sitting Wednesday so every boneyarder may kick your nuts into your throat after BU eats our lunch. Doomed.

Juwan Durham please.

I cannot watch Enoch & Facey any longer.

Durham please.

Durham please.

I agree, its embarrassing to the coaching staff how very little progress Facey has made in his 3+ years in Storrs.

Enoch, so much more talented, has shown little to nothing so far and is threatening to repeat the same Facey like fiasco.

Lol. After losing to Wagner, Northeastern and barely beating Loyola Marymount and letting Chaminade hang around for way too long I truly hope nobody was expecting a blow out Wednesday.

Couldn't agree more on Facey but how many minutes is Enoch averaging for us this year? Facey has had significant minutes in his UCONN career for judgement so I have no problem with fans throwing in the towel on him, but has Enoch ever played even 20 minutes?

Doesn't have to be intriguing, I actually think its predictable. Sadly it would be surprising and unique if we get off to a good start.

I hope UConn doesn't get blown out and at least keeps it close.

BU might be looking at us as a cupcake.

We don't have any must-wins until the AAC tournament.

Agree on the low minutes but Enoch needs to EARN the MINUTES and then do something when he gets them. He's too big and talented to not be a much better player and contributor. This team really needs him to be an inside presence.

 

[Pudge]

We shot 63% against Chaminade. So ... I dunno ... shooting 70% would make you happy?

We got off those damn islands with Jalen Adams revved up. That is the start from now on ... and the opponent has to stop him OR he is off his game. We have a decent 8 with Vital and Jackson getting marginally better. Sorry ... you are seeing Enoch (and I think he will get better with minutes) and Brimah and Facey. Have you counted? We have EIGHT.

I hate to say it, but this year we are a cupcake

 

[Waquoit]

At least we are playing in the XL, the crowd should get the team going.

Ollie: "Okay guys...this is how we eat cupcakes. First, we lick the frosting off the top right to the top of the cupcake. Slowly, savor that sugar now, ya know what I'm sayin'? Riiiight? Okay, then we take small bites as we want this thing to last. You never know when we might get another cupcake, amiright?? God is good!!"
