UConn Game Day Thread

Don't be so sure about that.

Reactionary fans aren't coaches for a reason. And Frank flat out crapped the bed tonight. I'd still rather have a 6-5 guard playing at the top of the zone than a 6-1 165 pound guy.
Agree... Frank at least is a threat on offense. Washington just passes the ball like a hot potato.
 
Playing your two starting guards for basically 40 minutes even though one is playing the worst game in the history of ESPN is more of a panic move IMO.

Amen x 1000

It doesn’t have to be all or nothing. Maybe get him out for a few stretches. Like taking out a pitcher that’s getting rocked.

Except you can put him back in.

Trust me - I am not being reactionary. Standing flatfooted most of the second half doesn't mean a thing no matter how tall you are. Then to get the ball and return it to the other team? Is it OK to turn it over that often if you are taller?

It would sure help if Washington had a bit more game experience under his belt.

We the fans don't know what we have in this kid, but Boeheim probably does. And we know how Coach coaches, so lamenting him not riding his experienced guys is pointless. Even during a game when one of the principals laid an egg.
 
If we had a guy that Boeheim was comfortable with, then he might have. But he doesn't, so he didn't.

Tonight is a night when Geno Thorpe might have gotten extensive run. Dumb ass.

So we're gonna play two guards for essentially 40 minutes every night? I've seen that movie b4, never ends well. I'd roll with it if our PG was playing decent...
 
This game just shows how far the sanctions made us fall when you compare it to real basketball played by nova and Gonzaga.
