I can't remember a team changing their entire constitution quite like this team seems to have.

WOw.

Did I see DEANDRE DANIELS grab several tough, physical rebounds today?!? I mean, we didn't see that all of last year or the beginning of this year. That last rebound to close this game out. Impressive stuff, in a crowd.

What a turn around. So KO gets the kids to play and gets them to improve. He outcoached the experienced coach. For heaven's sake WM, give KO the contract!

give Kevin a pay raise and an extension, NOW

good thing Jimmy is such a stubborn old man, he knew what he wanted

I'm ready to eat my pound of crow as I assume most of you are. I didn't have much hope that they could improve their rebounding like they have the past 2 games. It's a small sample, but encouraging nonetheless. It's amazing what happens when you put a body on someone as the ball goes up compared to just standing there or running to where you think the ball is going. Boxing out is a skill and can be learned no matter your size. Size does matter, but not as much if a player immediately gets their body on their man quickly making them have to go over you to get the ball. In addition to getting some over-the-top calls, they're actually getting most of the RBs the past 2 games. I'm both shocked and proud! I hope they keep it up. If they do, we're going to continue to see a lot of Ws this season. Too bad we can't carry it to the post season.

Thought KO would get the maximum out of this team but never did I expect the rebounding change to be so drastic.

Yup, JC really screwed up the program by forcing Ollie in as head coach. I can't believe he thought a guy who had a long NBA career based on his leadership ability would be a good hire.

DD is going to be a great rebounder.
I believe he is the person on this team with the best shot a being an NBA star
I like to call him the worm.

When DD rebounds and stays very active, UConn can be Very good.
