I find it more interesting that this suggests that you have had some good feelings about other games this year haha

That made me laugh

I understand that some levity is needed to get through life but at the expense of your home team? It took 3 posts before jokes/ criticism started. What do you guys think recruits will think? I could understand criticism AFTER THE GAME if we were to get blown out without out best player on the road to a team that desperately wants a first round bye.

Now we can't laugh?

Keith you have coached; have you ever laughed or make jokes about your teams shortcomings publicly so they could read it? And this GAME THREAD is 2/3 jokes or criticism and the game hasn't even started yet.

RE: ***Official Memphis @ UConn Game Thread***
Let's kind of let those that want a chuckle have one. We're going to play hard and the kids will have all our rooting interests tonight.

We all love our guys and even with the SMU and Tulsa losses, the EFFORT was there. That's all I ask out of the kids. They're 18-22 and poured out effort against those teams.

Only bummer for me is that the snowstorm cancelled the night class I teach 6p-9p ET tonight. If I had known I'd not be teaching a little earlier, I might be in the house tonight. It's a few hours away, but it's one of the only two times I get to drive to games really...

The recruits are laughing at us too. We just need to be worried about grad transfers.

As long as they're funny, let 'em rip.

Just don't stoop to 'pull my finger level' and we should be fine.

How is the storm affecting Philly?

We ended up with about 7" here in the Center City area...our biggest snowfall of the season. Snow emergency is in effect until midnight tonight...guess that means I'll be drinking and watching the Tigers at home instead of at my favorite bar.

Do you guys have density of fanbase in Philly to do watch parties? We've really struggled this year to get attendance...

I think there's six of us here...and a handful across the river in Jersey. We all drink too much to have had watch parties in the past. Now that we have Uber though...

I am coming to NYC next Saturday to watch the Big East final. If you're around, we should grab a drink.

There is always the chance they get too up for the game and come out wild and out of control.

UCONN will embarrass our guards tonight....Shaq will get in quick foul trouble and we loose by 20 or more. Boatright is motivated....

Another blowout in ESPN....

I know for a fact a few players and recruits read this forum some and don't like some of the posts.

Stats don't lie...W&L don't lie...The same players two weeks ago let Brima got for 20 points...This team has no grind on defense...the opposing team always shooting layups because Memphis are always out of position on D...watch the game tonight...it will testify.

Yes. We are clearly on the bubble of being just irrelevant or being completely irrelevant.
