let a win slip into a loss tonight, very disappointing. Tonight was a wasted opportunity, cannot waste the shot against a ACC team next game.
It’s more about building up mental toughness. If kids don’t come out mad from this loss than I’m concerned they still have a losing mentality. That type of attitude should be on forums only.UConn needs to beat Miami because they are from a P5 conference. Any time UConn takes the court or field against a P5 opponent, they need to win. Can't make a case for being at the big kids table if you don't beat the big kids. So Miami on Sunday . . . send them back to ACC a beaten team. And in a few weeks, same treatment for Indiana. If ylu are going to lose a game, make it to Maine or someone else, not a P5.

Bouk carried us, by far the best player on the team.This I believe whole heartedly: we learn from tonight. We don’t lose this game next year or next month or even next week. You don’t win without overcoming adversity. This one stings. But it’s a learning opportunity. We are going to be better going forward.
As a side note, I feel awful for Bouk. Whaley and he walked into the tunnel together, Whaley’s arm around him in consolation. When he got out of view of the cameras and most fans, Bouk doubled over and, I think, began to cry- or at least was extremely upset. Clearly he felt like he cost us the game with his late foul. Had to be walked to the locker room. I feel for him. He was a warrior tonight. Bouk is a stud and tonight doesn’t change that.

Stop it. Get some help.If ylu are going to lose a game, make it to Maine or someone else, not a P5.
The game is tomorrow, not todayIts good that its a 1 o'clock game so the team can have a team around and much time to dwell on the loss especially on the road. Basically its get up, win and get out of town.
