I think he is the most improved player on the team.. you can tell he has put in the work... the injuries to Clingan and Castle might have been a blessing in disguise bc guys like Solo got way more minutes than they would have.. now Stewart is starting to live up to his billing.. Diarra was going to play but he probably played more than he would have.. and now that his confidence is high and he's worked on his game, the team goes to another level

Watching this clip after UConn repeats as national champions. After watching this game I knew UConn was going to win it all and nobody was going to beat them

I personally think as each day of this college basketball season passes, UConn has gotten better than they were every previous day! Normally I don't predict this far ahead but at this point there's no beating around the proverbial bush - it's looking more and more like the NCAA tournament should just be called the UConn Invitational because I can't see anyone beating them and I mean anyone! We r supposed to be in an era where balance and the portal are supposed to have made college basketball level, but UConn has completely defied that and then some! It's gonna take a combination of your supreme effort and UConn's own help to have a chance to knock them out! But that is a "gonna take" and I don't see that happening! How fast Danny Hurley has flipped the switch with the program is ridiculously absurd and UConn is on a level of their own! U miswell already pencil them in for at least the Final Four JS! I've thought for weeks that Marquette was overrated and UConn put them in that place! But what UConn is doing to everyone at the moment is just downright stupid

@bradlewis6514

3 ай бұрын

What's been as equally remarkable has been the quick "this good" success ascent from Hurley as a head coach! U never got any indication to be honest from his past that this tidal wave was coming at any point! He'd had limited success at his previous stops and when he took over at UConn their program was at a crossroads and then followed with back to back first round NCAA tournament exits so this burst the last two seasons was like a comet coming out of nowhere! Don't get me wrong he's a solid coach and intense to a fault, but this has been shocking to an extent!

@YeIIowNBA

@@bradlewis6514I saw it coming. Every team he’s coached he’s lead them to the tournament, hell, he even got a win at his other school. But you gotta realize, UConn not only has amazing staff overall, but it’s easier to recruit to a good team like this. He’s a smart man, he thinks ahead not in the present

Can UConn repeat this year????? Since the start of last season they are 55-10. Not bad for the last 2 seasons, so far!!!!! Can they do it????? Being a repeat champion in any sport is extremely difficult. College basketball is probably the most difficult to do it in esp with the atmosphere, upsets, Cinderellas n everything else that goes on in the NCAA Tourney. In my opinion, it's the fairest and best system in all of college sports to crown a champion. They are on a great run this year and hope they don't get too confident. One game at a time, one goal at a time 1)win Big East regular season title to get a favorable seed for the 2nd goal 2)win the Big East Tourney so they get a favorable (and deserving seed for #3 3)win the NCAA Tourney and bring another trophy back to Storr. They do have what it takes. They're playing good ball and they aren't just beating teams, they are pounding teams.They should have won that game in Kansas, their only other loss came in Big East play (everyone knows how Big East games are dogfights) BACK 2 BACK 2023/2024 NCAA CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!

Only concern I have as a UConn fan/grad is history is often unkind to dominate-looking teams come tournament time. UCLA - 1974 (though they won 10 in 12 years) Indiana St. - 1979 Houston - 1983 Georgetown - 1985 Oklahoma - 1988 UNLV - 1991 UConn - 1994-96 Duke - 1999 With rosters fluctuating more in the one-and-done era, the tourney became more and more of a crapshoot, so few dominant teams existed since. Really curious to see how this all pans out. Let me know if I missed any dominant teams that didn’t win NCAA?
