    UConn’s Dan Hurley Addresses Importance of Mental Health for Men: “It’s a Crisis”

    It is a crisis. There are not a lot of resources for men that need help. Often men don't want to want to admit they need support. Glad to see someone at Hurley's level advocating for such a hidden crisis.

    Hurley vs. Calhoun

    Hurley will no doubt be a HOF'r like Calhoun, but Jim came here and built a national power house. Some of the younger fans have no clue just how good the Big East was. Those games against Alonzo Mourning, Allen Iverson, Malik Sealy, Billy Owens just to name a few. The Big East was the real...

    Another Hurley Thread

    I remember how down fans were. Passed over in realignment, stuck in the AAC, not landing high profile recruits. Then Hurley arrives and he had a vision of what UConn should be and like a mad scientist, he went to work. He knew when he said those prophetic words. "People better get us now cause...

    Alex Karaban hints coming back

    We need him, Johnson and the freshman to be the building blocks of the next group.

    Cam is a legend

    He definitely is. It feels like he's always been here. He joined only a year ago, but he's managed to leave a great legacy in that short time. Amazing

    Samson Johnson question

    Johnson is capable of starting. He needs to bulk up. If he adds 20 lbs of muscle, he can take the pounding of a whole game. Clingan weighs like 280 on his frame, no clue what Johnson weighs but more weight would do wonders for his game and draft stock

    Samson Johnson question

    It's the coach's job to improve the roster. That doesn't mean that who he brings in will be guaranteed to start, it just means that Hurley is obligated to make his team better every year. If that means bringing in a center that can start day one, then that's what he'll do. The guys that are...

    The transfer portal opens today

    Hurley must feel like a kid in the candy store. With another title under his belt and a lot of slots to fill, he'll have the pick of the litter. There's a lot of talent in the portal and a few guys he recruited that ended up elsewhere. We're going to reload and run it back. Next year might...

    Ringer: UConn once shocked the world, now it looks like a Dynasty

    I would assume teams are going to start copying aspects of Hurley's offense. We might be running into versions of this motion offense soon. If you can't beat em, join em. It's hard to stay at the top in any sport. I'm just glad we're hear for the moment enjoying history and creating a higher...

    How fun would this guy be at UConn. Definitely a fan favorite

    Where do you rank Newton among UConn guard greats?

    Every year we do those build your best UConn team. From now on, Newton will be on that team.

    Sure they were. On CBS sports, all year long UConn was never given respect by either of these guys

    How did you become a UConn fan?

    The NIT champion. That was a big deal

    How nervous were you

    Yeah, for some reason I thought it was closer, but when the fouls came. My nerves started getting to me
  21. B1GEast

    How nervous were you

    When Clingan and Johnson both had 4 fouls and there was about 7 minutes to go and the lead was 7 or 9? I felt a lot of anxiety. Hurley is a genius for going small with Karaban, who got fouled so many times and no whistle blown. I thought Hurley might go with Stewart, but he needed Karaban's...

    Today: Parrish Kissing Our Butt

    He's been doing that since the we got to the final 4. Him and Norlander yesterday were on CBS sports TV and both sang UConn praises as if they were on board since day one. Both of those guys completely looked past UConn all season, but now they don't want to appear as though they were so off...

    The Best PG in UCONN History

    There's statistically the best and then there are fan favorites. Love Newton, but what Kemba did was the stuff of Legends. Bazz too, and till this day Taliek still fills my memory when he ran the fast break. Taliek was a tank. Newton was calm cool and collected throughout the entire...

    The best moment of the game

    With about 7 minutes to play Newton drives to the hoop against Edey and puts a move on him to get the bucket and extend the lead. Hassan and Cam did that as well. Out guards were the difference

    Zach Edy

    He should have been in foul trouble. He hacked our guys on the way to the hoop several times and they never called anytime he hooked one of our guys down low. Ticky tak fouls on Sampson too He was gasses and tired. He played way too many minutes in the previous game He's a good college...

    Not bad for a church league team

    The Syracuse boys dug up an interesting thread on their board about the Hurley hire when we were in the AAC. Seems like yesterday, but wow, how the worm has turned https://syracusefan.com/threads/uconn-fires-kevin-ollie-hires-danny-hurley.128642/

    The Big East

    A lot of realignment going on. I love the Big East, but honestly if a spot opens somewhere for the football team, not sure if the BE is out forever home. I'll cross that bridge when we get there, but it is such a fantastic and pure basketball league.

    The Best UConn Team Ever

    Congrats, they earned it. This team is better than 04, if that's even possible

    Last Thoughts for Tonight

    Any team that made it this far can win it all. UConn is favored, we have experience, a better coach and better guards. If UConn plays its game we should win. I think we cover the spread, but we all know anything can happen, so I'll wait for the run and sweat it out. Go UConn
