I resemble that remarkOldude is a proud Ct. fan, as he has told us. He appears to be a serious student of the game. He is both a gentleman and a rabble rouser, a sh_t stirrer of the first order. His oblique praise of CKC—Geno emulates her system—is designed to get us to clutch her to our bosom and… suffer the beat downs sure to follow. It is a tactic employed by rivals during Holly's last season.

bunkI was speaking about defense. As I pointed out in another post, Geno has always employed pressure defense as a change up to attempt to go on quick runs. Once the Huskies build a lead, or in the case where an opponent burns UConn’s press, or in the case where key players get into foul trouble, he takes the press off.
What is different this year is UConn’s commitment to full court pressure defense for 40 minutes, and it doesn’t stop once an opponent crosses half court. Certainly, that has something to do with having a deeper roster. UConn goes 9 deep with their regular rotation. But it also has something to do with the game in Knoxville last season, when the effectiveness of TN’s pressure defense took UConn by surprise.
Geno once commented that he learned something from every basketball game he ever watched. Well he certainly learned something last season in Knoxville.
It is. But more parity is also good for the sport.I resemble that remark
In all honesty, I miss the days when UConn & TN were both fighting for national championships every year, and the annual battles between Pat’s team and Geno’s team were must see tv. I don’t know if that’s ever possible again. But I do believe that a healthy rivalry between the two teams is very good for women’s basketball.
Happy March Madness to those who celebrate. We probably should get our happiness in quickly, not likely to last.
This is the coolest thing ever, and it's just a play in game. This is our mens first opponent
Must suck for them. So very unfortunate for the team. Just guessing but that prolly wasn’t covered in Kellie’s contract and some admin saw a dollar. Of course they did score a trip to Jersey.Watching Missouri game which was supposed to be at Missouri, but Missouri‘s gym was booked, so is at Seton Hall (with SH announcers), and SH is fouling (uncalled) and flopping like crazy.
Missouri won, 67-57. YAY! The announcers said during the game they’re in the toughest bracket, likely playing BYU next. A smiling Kellie was interviewed after the game, and said it was a big win for them and that the crowd had been loud.Must suck for them. So very unfortunate for the team.

Do you use Disney Plus or Hulu at all? If so, they usually have a bundle with those two plus ESPN+, but still may not be what you want to pay. I do the bundle, but i think it probably only worth it if you watch a lot of Hulu or Disney+ content.Id like to watch the Missouri game but don't want to spring for ESPN +
