Blue/White Night, 11/2 @7p (Updated)

[NJHoops]

From the Borges secret scrimmage article:

“UConn was originally slated to host its Blue/White Night on Monday, but rescheduled it for Nov. 2 in hopes that the Huskies will be able to field more of a complete team by then. If Karaban can participate, the event is likely to be more of an intrasquad scrimmage, perhaps divided into three 10-minute quarters. If Karaban can't play, the event will likely be more of an open practice.”

Was hoping I would be able to attend this but will be in Tortola the 2nd. Painkillers will help with the disappointment of missing it

Question: is this a Casual Fan event?

“That was a fine rebound Donovan. Very nice indeed”

 

[coachn]

Looking forward to attending. A lot of new people. See if we have a point guard. See if we have a shooter.

My son has attended a half dozen games at the XL but has never been to Gampel. Wednesday will be his first Huskies experience on campus. We’re both very excited about this year’s roster.

Here’s your open practice. Open to all, just claim a ticket.



To get ahead of the questions, it’s not on a Saturday because they have closed scrimmages on 10/22 and 10/29.

Were these secret scrimmages against other teams?

I don't recall the UVA matchup being posted anywhere else before. Should be a good test for us

Right, you are!!

So I just looked at my tickets for this. The day after it was postponed, the new date showed up. Now, it says 10/24 and that the ticket is expired. I assume they will honor it

I just looked at mine and it has new date but not seeing "expired".

Anyone know if they'll have concessions open tonight? Wouldn't mind an ice cold Miller Light while watching practice

Said no one ever.

Well, at least since the "Taste Great, Less Filling" wars of the 1970's and 80's.

 

[Vancat]

who's all goin'? me. Even though I'm casual.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Unsure if it's been asked, but will there be a stream for this by any chance?

three 10-minute quarters. If Karaban can't play, the event will likely be more of an open practice.”

Thought for the day:

If there are only 3 of them, can they really be called "quarters"?

Hardooooo!!! Let me guess you like overpriced IPAs and suffer from a severe case of Gout! Give me Miller lights all day everyday

 

[krinklecut]

They’re calling it a scrimmage. Would it be reading too much into this to assume Karaban is healthy?

 

[connjah]

will it be streamed anywhere ?

 

[XLCenterFan]

Looking forward to seeing the transfers in action.

At least choose a better light beer. C'mon!

[QDOG5]

If I drink a bunch of miller lites there is plenty of streaming.

So I should stop drinking the beer on enjoy? Listen buddy I didn't ask for your advice on beer, I asked if they'd be serving it.... Nobody cares what type of beer you think is or isn't good.
