UConn Game Day Thread

[Eric15]

Between the nice words about GMac to the nice words about Pearl to the saying SU is a tourney team to the reminiscing about his friend John Saunders... will Vitales wrath of terror ever end?!?!?

 

[doc05]

Chukwu is our best offensive weapon right now.

 

[weepeel]

Vitale is like a wind up talking clown doll...

 

[longislandcuse]

Brissett only looks really good or really bad. There's literally no in between.

 

[SUFan44]

Marek is gonna be playing center for us by game's end.

 

[NineOneSeven]

We need to get some transition buckets

 

[NineOneSeven]

Jesus

 

[doc05]

I'm sure not going to pile on Frank, but we may have overrated his early season play a tad. Needs to step it up -- he's the most experienced vet on the team, need him to play like it.

Remember he started out great last year. People were saying don't sweat losing Quade, we got a junior FH next year. Then all hell broke loose.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Sidibe can’t move.

 

[RF2044]

Total bail out call on that out of control drive.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Gotta stop fouling

 

[two3zone]

Man you guys are really tough on Frank considering this is his first bad game.

The mistakes are just awful. Bad is bad but it's like he has no clue what he's doing.

 

[OrangeDW]

Well it was ugly, but liked the decision to penetrate and kick for the 3 at least and it worked out.

 

[NineOneSeven]

This game shouldn't even be in the universe of single digits

 

[supp]

Frank's not a point guard. His instinct on that near turnover was to take it up himself rather than pass it out to Battle for the three.

 

[OrangeDW]

I legit laughed out loud.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Meh. It’s over the top on this thread because people are still mad about last year to the point they are writing off his previous 7 good games.

Let's not go crazy... Howard showed improvement but was far from great. He was no where close to as good as he has played this year. And he would never have played good against Kansas last year

I still don't understand what we do on offense though. We could make Steve Nash look bad with these sets. He gets over halfcourt and we run a 1-4 set for like 15 seconds without reason while he dribbles out the clock with no picks/curls/motion to initiate offense.

 

[Funk Doc]

Jesus

Does he have eligibility available we could use him!!!???

Except for the part where he kicked it to Battle for the three.

 

[Eric15]

Thanks, Hooters!

Yeah. A bad shooting night is one thing. I can live with those. The decision making is tough to watch. It’s not like we’re talking 2-3 plays. It’s like there’s been more bad ones than good ones tonight.

"Great" -- from a certain point of view (Obi Wan reference).

more last resort than anything he planned.
