It’s a shame he got hurt early(plus had to deal with the foot injury all preseason) or he’d have been the national POY. I really believe that. We haven’t seen him scratch the surface of how good he can be.Five blocks actually seems low for Clingan. He must have a couple of alters where he didn’t touch the ball or they decided it was a pass.
Unless Clingan gets in foul trouble. Then they are bonedIt's the NCAA Tournament, and all it takes is one and you're out, but UConn can play any style - they can win a shootout, a track meet, a defensive rock fight. They can pound it inside, and they can rain threes. They can get up and down the court, and they can run incredible half court sets. They're talented and super deep, and incredibly well coached.
They are, at the collegiate level, a team without a weakness.
They can lose, because a good team can play great (Villanova - Georgetown) but man, they're so, so good. Clearly the best team in the country.
They can win without him. Of course it's much harder, but they've got so many good players. And Samson Johnson is a really good backup.Unless Clingan gets in foul trouble. Then they are boned
When you rank 395 of 435 colleges academically, you go with what works.Aggressive marketing strategy.
They get paid to go. It’s all a scam. It’s the IMG of college.Do the fans really get 3 credits to go to games regularly?
Whichever team that fan is squelching for, I hope they lose.Sounds like someone is being strangled to death in this Alabama crowd.
No fucking way, lolDo the fans really get 3 credits to go to games regularly?

If that makes his brother unhappy in some small way, I’m all for it.UConn is still going to win this by a large margin but this last ten minute stretch can’t make Hurley happy.
Haha I have zero love for Bobby Hurley.If that makes his brother unhappy in some small way, I’m all for it.
I thought it was just me; Christ was she annoying.Whichever team that fan is squelching for, I hope they lose.
She was a GCU fan so she's been silenced for the rest of the tourney.I thought it was just me; Christ was she annoying.
Yeah absolutely. They took what the defense gave. Still, the concern is that it has been a few games now where they have been challenged to play well for a full 40. Can’t take possessions off for the rest of the year or they will not get to where they want to be. Glad they get some time off now.Hard to stay as dominant as they were in the first half. Putting up 75 in a game where they’re 3-22 from 3 just tells you how well-rounded they are.
Yeah I think that 5-6 minute stretch was not great. I think if the game is closer you’d see less lapses of concentration.Yeah absolutely. They took what the defense gave.

Really? UConn among the sports fans I know is one of the only men's basketball programs more hated than Duke.Exactly. And they are correct.
Plus - and this isn’t a newsflash - the country would rather root against Duke / see Duke lose than UConn.
You think so? I’ve never experienced much UConn hate and I’ve lived all over the country. Maybe you need to spend less time hanging with AleX and the BC crowd.Really? UConn among the sports fans I know is one of the only men's basketball programs more hated than Duke.
It's basically wherever Calipari is, UConn, and Duke at the top of the list.
Calhoun gets a lot of hate going back to encouraging Jake Voshkul's elbows in my experience. He was just considered pretty dirty, which stuck with the program.You think so?

Yeah almost double the amount of FTs taken.Serious these refs in this Houston game need to be examined. It was not called evenly AT ALL.
