I don’t see a path to get up the 7 line, outside winning the Big East tournament. Teams directly in front of UConn on Bracket Matrix keep winning (except Marquette) & have better metrics. The committee also severely discounts conf tournaments, but winning it couldn’t be ignored.

Time to battle in Storrs South #uconnmbb 🆚 St. John's ⏰ 12 PM 📺 FOX

No idea what to expect tomorrow: this team shows flashes of greatness & stretches of brutality. They play up & down to competition + have not won 3 gms in a row since Jan 1. That has not happened between 1/1-2/23 since 2020. Defense has significantly improved, but the offense has taken a step back.

🔜

Despite the results of the last two trips to Newark, I will be in the building today. If UConn loses, it's my fault. I'm sorry in advance.

It's February 12 and the next UConn Men's Basketball gets on a plane is the NCAA Tournament

I am still in shock this team won in Omaha. What a rollercoaster.

Things I am optimistic about: someone that had not played in 6 weeks looked above and away the best player on the floor Things I am concerned about: someone that had not played in 6 weeks looked above and away the best player on the floor

Dan Hurley: “We got held the whole game. Look at the free throw differential. Where is the freedom of movement?”

Frustrating: nights like this represent stagnation imo. They've played this exact same game tonight 5-6 times this season and have won more than lost but made it harder than necessary. They have shown they are so much better than this, but too many self-inflicted wounds kill them

Please win.

Need big games from Tarris and Samson defensively today to keep Sorber in check

Through 15 games this season, UConn Men’s Basketball has already won as many games by five points or less (4) as the last two seasons combined. It’s fun, but stressful.

From today's episode of Inside the Big East MBB: www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7Xf... WBB: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZCh...

Turns out, I was very wrong! Thank you Hassan, Tarris, and Aidan for saving the day.

Today I think is a big moment for Karaban. Assuming Hopkins does not go, PC has no one that can guard him. He has been very strong of late towards end of games, but he could feast the full 40 today.

Nice of them to have an honorary seat for me at arenas across the country

The good news with McNeeley injury is for the second year in a row, the toughest part of the schedule is in February and there is a real opportunity for multiple guys to step in and make some major strides. We saw that last year when Clingan missed time. But Liam has been great, big void to fill.

Good transition defense has a 100% approval rating. Everyone loves fundamental ball. Heal quick, Liam. More in the Husky ReView: Ball shooting, Diarra dishing, DePaul's run & UConn response, Set of the Game, and stats + shot charts @storrscentral.com Premium ➡️ storrscentral.com/s/884/husky-...

Definitely saw team was deflated once Liam got knocked out but a resilient response down the stretch particularly big time shots by Karaban and Samson was clutch on both ends.

Biggest concern for today is shaking off the rust in the opening minutes given amount of time off Biggest area of focus is the significant amount of practice time to improve perimeter defense, which has gotten some bad luck and already gotten better but still has room to grow

This is absolutely ridiculous

Merry Christmas

This iteration of Seton Hall Men’s Basketball is so bad that if UConn loses in Newark again this year, I will be convinced that Hurley is continually throwing that game intentionally.

Huge gritty win on the road. Big showing by Karaban, McNeely, and Hass. Had to overcome some brutal officiating, but some huge shotmaking down the stretch and taking care of the business at the foul line sealed the victory. A well earned holiday break -- six game winning streak.

It is December 19 and UConn Men's Basketball plays 1 game at home on a Saturday between now and March. Thank you Val!

We’ve been blessed with the Peacock this weekend and the beginning of the ultimate gift of the Big East: never playing at home on the weekend.

Everyone should be sending pictures of vicious bears to Tarris Reed at all hours of the day going forward
