    Napier is going to end his career...

    You can hate on anything the kid says when a microphone is put in his face, but he could have bailed like the others did and instead cemented a legacy into NCAA basketball and the hearts of us UCONN fans. Not many guys have 2 rings and are 12-1 in NCAA tourney play. FYI He is on track to...

    Uconn fan who knows the truth

    I preferred celebrating another championship before I ackowledged this and yes we have become a little spoiled.

    UConn Wins. Subtext: ISU 2014 was a championship team with Niang

    Thanks.....an unbelievable run and easily the most unexpected. When Kemba ran through the Big East tourney, I had a feeling, but this one could have and should have ended at the hands of St Joes if not for them running out of players.

    UConn Wins. Subtext: ISU 2014 was a championship team with Niang

    I like that....when the tourney started I was only hoping uconn made the Sweet 16 and I would have plenty happy. I will admit, as unfair as it may be, had they lost last night I would have been disappointed. Made the free throws, the difference between glory and losing. Calipari's quote about...

    Nice to know Fred would never do this

    Pete Carroll said the same thing about Mark Sanchez and look how that turned out.

    UConn Wins. Subtext: ISU 2014 was a championship team with Niang

    I kept asking myself who this Hogue guy was and why didn't I know him Thanks.....as I said before ISU and Uconn have a lot in common and with Hoiberg at the helm, he will continue to build a "family" in Ames. As much as I despise Calipari, it is time to swallow my pride and give credit where...

    Uconn fan who knows the truth

    it's all good ....Losing Niang and not knowing what could have been would have me bonkers to be honest Beyond my own team, the Cyclones are one I cheer for.....besides Royce of course.....Hornacek and Grayer are 2 all time favorites

    East region is the toughest that Iowa State is in

    Down 3 without the ball and under 35 seconds......our least likely player to score an old fashioned 3 point play takes us to OT. East was easily the toughest.....Big 12, Big 10, ACC, A10 and Big East tourney champs. Thow in Cincy, Nova, uconn and Memphis.

    UConn Wins. Subtext: ISU 2014 was a championship team with Niang

    The team I watched in this years Big 12 tourney was my favorite to take this tourney without a doubt. I have a $50 ISU to win the championship ticket at 30 to 1 from MGM Grand. I wasn't happy to see them in the same bracket as Uconn. Obvious I agree they were a championship caliber team and...

    Uconn fan who knows the truth

    I still stick by what I said about the Cyclones with Niang, but it's time to accept that Uconn, at MSG or not at MSG, plays some tremendous defense. It isn't like they shot lights out at MSG. Maybe you will get your wish Monday night, because Uconn pretty much smothered the team that was all...

    Couldn't agree more......it was almost like he decided he was going to make that call no matter what

    Big XII vs. Big 10

    For some reason it's common for middle of the pack teams trying to validate themselves by the accomplishments of other teams in their conference.

    Uconn fan who knows the truth

    Never considered that it mattered.....if pushed for an answer, would say UCONN

    Uconn fan who knows the truth

    I try to get a sense of a fan base "as a whole" by visiting sites like this and talking to groups of fans snd not just judge by a few meatballs who run around with the "we have won 3 ttles since 99" rhetoric. Trust me I despise those fans also, but every fan base has obnoxious dbags. I'm sorry...

    Uconn fan who knows the truth

    Ollie was one of those guys who managed to stay in NBA much longer than his amount of talent takes others of similar talent. He was well respected by his peers, see Hoiberg's quotes, Kevin Durant quotes, and he was very close with Larry Brown. I think you would be surprised if you knew a...

    Uconn fan who knows the truth

    I like to think that both guys have a vested interest in continuing each schools legacy and since both have lived the NBA life, they might want to be the next Johnny Orr or Jim Calhoun instead. Here's to hoping both stay for many years. Thanks

    Uconn fan who knows the truth

    7 Big East Tournament championships since 1990 won there. Trust me, if we could choose a venue other than our home floor, that's it for sure. Whether or not it had any effect on the outcome, I can't say, but it was a welcome gift to play where our school has some incredible moments in our hoops...

    Looking for 2 tickets for Sunday

    Sadly I wasn't able to find a reasonable ticket Friday nite. Been to a lot of tournament games, but haven't had the pleasure to interact with Cyclone fans, but no one here has been negative towards me, so I am sure what you say is true. Always seemed midwestern fans were the most friendly and...
