Yeah I heard he was out, some saying he could redshirt and transfer after this year. I’m not surprised because McNeely is out for awhile and he means a lot to that team. Still they should beat Providence they are terrible without BH.

Interesting … he’s only played in three (3) games this year.

Apparently he still isn’t 100% and they have little chance at the postseason now so he may opt to heal and open market for him because he’s proven now. He would have some high suitors when healthy. I would have loved him to stay here.

UConn is the only non-SEC school in the top 5 of offensive efficiency ratings, so it would be nice for them to struggle offensively here.

But, right now, they appear to be hitting every shot they throw up, but so is Providence.

Under 8 timeout. UConn with 9 fouls, Providence 17. Must be nice.

Providence offense is all 1v1. Not sustainable against a team like UConn.

No way Providence pulls this out. No way.

I hate to say it but UCONN is still a problem.

 

[megablue]

Oh, well …

 

[Tayshaun4Three]

I still don’t think UConn is that good. Can’t guard a stump

Couldn’t happen to a nicer coach

Almost lost at home to 7 and 7 providence.

They aren't competing for a 3rd title n a row this year and won't sniff the final four. And that's ok. You can't win it all or make the final four every season.

I sure hope you are right.

I wouldn't say that. They have a top 4 offense, which was on full display in the 2nd half yesterday and this is typical UConn, play possum here and there, struggle, then get in the tournament and win the damn thing.

It's only early January, by the time March rolls around, nobody is going to want to see UConn in their bracket.

Hopefully they're a 2 or 3 in Auburn, or UT's bracket.
