UConn must start looking toward next year. No offense, not a clue how to run an offense against a 2-3 zone. Way too many turnovers..... Foul Shooting is simply embarrassing. Louisville caught a break tonight. They played a less than mediocre game against an overmatched team, and won. Keeps them in the hunt. So one part of the equation seems to be in ……..

Good observation since I was sitting right next to him at the rockin' Civic Center. There is also one other thing that the huskies need. They need to stop looking at the bench when they miss a shot wondering whether on not they are going to get the hook. A scorer is a shooter. You miss some and you make some. If you miss a couple and get the hook or never try again because you are afraid of getting the hook then you will always make that extra unneeded pass. How many times did they have an open three, and then give a head fake to a defender that was 6 feet from them to step around and pass the ball off. Or worse take nearly the same shot from within the line. John O was kidding me on the way home about how much I hated that when Albert Mouring took over that year as the guard and never shot. Shoot the damn ball Albie was what I was yelling that year. I have no idea who to yell that to this year. Someone please step up and become a shooter. John O is absolutely right on in everything.

Watched ND-Nova last night....sure is toughto win a game on the road..... Nova killed ND on the boards and shot extremely well.... Looks like they may be coming on with a great performance by Reynolds at the point. Carter and Sumpter had a real duel..... It was enjoyable but if teams score over 100 ND doesn't have a chance. TOUGH ROAD!!!!
