WTNH: UConn is finding out just how competitive Dan Hurley practices are...

[gtcam]

This may be the single dumbest post I've seen in quite some time. Congratulations.

Maybe, but this one is rather weird:

Well to be quite frank, I feel like you guys are just getting too emotional when talking about him just because he’s an alumni. Personally, I couldn’t care less that he’s an alumni, he has made UConn a complete joke the last few years and that’s all that matters to me. WINNING.
This might be controversial but keep in mind I don’t have a connection to the University besides being a big fan. I’d like to go there one day, but not right now.

What could possibly have sounded emotional in my post?

"Winning" is still hilarious, by the way. Hope you can go to UConn when you're old enough for college.

Wouldn’t say emotional, but defensice

If you go to college perhaps you will learn that “Alumni” is the plural of alumnus. Kevin Ollie is an alumnus of the University of Connecticut. Kemba Walker, Kevin Ollie and I are alumni. Unless there are 2 or more Kevin Ollies who graduated from UCONN. In that case, they would be alumni. Misuse of alumni/alumnus drives me nuts. Sorry.

Admittedly off-point on this board, but where do you stand with alumna/alumnae?

Do the players have a safe space they can use when microaggessions take place on the court? Doesn't the learboard unfairly single out the less talented players?

All of your hard work only to end up with "learboard."

Nothing like loving college sports while hating college students/athletes

Little known history -- Facebook was almost called Leerboard. But Zuckerberg thought the name was too honest.

Do we really have to bring up KO in every thread? Whether or not you have an irrational hatred of the man or irrationally think he did a good job and got a raw deal, I think it's time in threads about the 18-19 Huskies to just let it go.

Yes, please and thank you, . Some folks need to just stop. The only KO topic should be the "contract issue" and that's it. Unless smoking male sausage is your hobby let KO be.

This was good until the male sausage piece you could have blown that piece off!

Has summer session #2 started yet? I know we saved up a bunch of coaching hours for session 2. I really want to see how Yakwe looks.

That is a fact. I hope I did not offend anyone, but the Ollie bashing is starting to take a turn left.

So it’s ok bash Ollie if you have a hobby like the one you mentioned? I’m new at this so I’m trying to get the rules straight.

New at what?

I’m trying not to get too excited by Hurley. But he is making it hard. I keep thinking about how pumped everyone was about Diaco who turned out to be both awful and crazy. And I seriously worry about any team that relies on a guy who has played 6 games in 2 years. But the guy is getting buy in and the team seems to be working hard and unlike wacky Bob he has a track record.

Yeah he shot his wad with that sentence.
