Just spent a great 20 minutes listening to Mike Krzyzewski interview Dan Hurley on the College Sports channel on Sirius. Awesome. K was extremely complimentary, almost awed by what DH has accomplished, told him what a great job he did reconstructing and preparing the team this year, and was...

And guess who is #1? The blurb (I know, "doomed", right?): "Clear favorite - and for good reason." I like that. By the way, Mr. SDSU "UConn is not a blue blood." For what it's worth, SDSU is his #16.

Thought I'd tee it up. I'll be on a plane for the next 6 hours, so ...

And UConn makes an appearance, along with Miami, Texas A&M, Xavier and Purdue. From USA Today: Connecticut Big East player of the year contender Adama Sanogo (14.8 ppg, 8.8 rpg) is back to give the Huskies a dominant presence in the paint again. Coach Dan Hurley used the transfer portal to...

Watching his start tonight in the Garden for the Nets. Up against Kyrie...

I know I'm in for a boatload of grief posting this, to the point that I almost titled the post "Sacrilege!". I like Hurley's fire, his passion, but I've yet to be impressed this year with the offense or defense in terms of creativity and/or tailoring it to the opponent. When we have more...

After the last two games I kinda want to see them play some more. Seemed to suddenly bring intensity and urgency to the court. Sure, some of the usual mistakes will be made, but it's fun watching that kind of UConn hoop.

Outrebounded 32-44 by Cincy today, and gave up 17 offensive boards. Before that is was 35-40 vs Houston, including 16 ORB. We did have a draw on the boards against SMU (37-37, 6-6 ORB), and a draw on the boards against ECU (37-36 and 9-9 ORB), although the latter shouldn't happen. This is...

I'm watching that horror-show tonight, and on Wagner's defensive end of the floor every time a shot goes up every green shirt on the floor is sticking their butt on a white shirt, and they're grabbing rebounds. We got a few offensive boards, but for a bigger and (allegedly) more athletic team...
