Pretty ridiculous block given the ND guy was
shooting a three.
Okay, I will admit it. I was one
of the naysayers who didn’t think UConn had a
chance today without Jerome Dyson and Doug Wiggins. Well, they proved everybody, including myself, wrong and got a signature win for the season. Craig Austrie filled in admirably for Dyson today as his free throws down the stretch helped the UConn Huskies hold on for the 68-63 upset of the Indiana ...
The first thing you need to know is
that next year's draft won't be as good at
the top (or as deep) as this year's draft, mostly because this year's incoming freshmen stink as a whole when compared to their immediate predecessors. Put another way, there is no incoming freshman as promising as Derrick Rose, Michael Beasley or O.J. Mayo, or at least it seems that way.
One thing’s for certain. The UConn Huskies didn’t
exactly play great basketball during the 10-game winning streak
and it showed again today. The Villanova Wildcats got off to a hot start in the game and were able to hold off the #13 UConn Huskies 67-65 at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia. The loss ended UConn’s 10-game winning streak and 8-game conference winning ...
Syracuse fell to UConn last night 63-61 and
chances are if you read this blog you already
knew that. Syracuse was done in by 7'3" Hasheem Thabeet and his shot blocking prowess, combined with a newly installed zone that gave the Orange a taste of their own medicine.

Okay UConn Huskies men’s basketball fans. Take a
deep breath and relax. Hasheem Thabeet has decided to
stay at UConn for his junior season, passing up a chance in this year’s NBA Draft.
STORRS, Conn. (Sunday, April 27, 2008) - University
of Connecticut sophomore men’s basketball player Hasheem Thabeet will
return for his junior season in 2008-09 and will not make himself eligible for the NBA Draft.
It helps to be ranking teams from a
position of clarity, very much unlike the one I
was working from on the morning of the national title game, when Version 1 of these was due to be filed for the magazine. Educated guesses were made on which players ...
#19 UConn got huge games from their bigs,
Hasheem Thabeet and Jeff Adrien, as they overcame a
first half deficit to beat the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets 80-68 in front of a national television audience and sold out crowd at Gampel Pavilion. The win was the seventh straight for the Huskies and their sixth win since Jerome Dyson was suspended.
It's been a huge 24 hours in Storrs.
First, UConn big man Hasheem Thabeet announced he's definitely
returning next year - which makes the Huskies a legitimate Final Four contender. Then Jim Calhoun & Co. got word earlier today that 6-foot-10, 225-pound power forward Ater Majok committed to UConn. Majok is from the Sudan, but played in Australia - and chose the Huskies over Baylor, ...
In something of a surprise, UConn center Hasheem
Thabeet announced he would be returning for his junior
year . "We are happy that Hasheem has made the decision to return for his junior season," said head coach Jim Calhoun. "Hasheem has made as much ...
College Basketball always begins around November 5th or
so which means college basketball is approximately 189 days
away. Everyday I will have a new reason to look forward to the 2008-2009 season. I started this countdown about 205 days before the ...
UConn got good news when Hasheem Thabeet decided
to stay in school. Could more be coming on
the A.J. Price front? Jeff Goodman has the details.
UConn's Hasheem Thabeet will be returning for his
junior year instead of entering his name into the
NBA Draft. This is a story I wrote about Thabeet's career at UConn thus far back in February.
