Hoya Hoops reporting that Wright's not dressed again. And students sure showed up earlier than when I was a student.

Greetings from Verizon Center. I have already asked AJ where my laptop was. He did not seem to know.
No team brings out my hatred more than the UConnvicts.
Wright is in street clothes once again during warmups.
enjoy the game.

Nice run, looking a lot better. (Gonna have to watch out for Thabeet on the drives though)
Good rebound Roy, coming in from the 3pt line.

PE Jr would have love that oop, rock down the house, but he is having plenty of impact anyway, boarding, energy, etc...

I must applaud the "Where's My Laptop?" cheer, which was clearly audible on ESPN when Price was at the line.

good first half, on the boards especially. a little sloppy on offense. sapp, of course, out of control and making bad passes at times. someone please guard wiggins.

Very happy with the intensity and effort today. Rebounding, going after the ball, everything.
Playing well - if Roy hits his FTs and we clean up some of the sloppy play we had for a few short stretches, this game isn't close. Good contibutions all around, esp. Pat.

Jon Wallace is KILLING THE TEAM today. Just awful. Getting his butt kicked on defensive end and offensively--he's off and forcing things-just cost the team 4 straight points. Problem is--he's got to stay in the game due to fact we've got no shooting from Sapp or Rivers today. Hope Wright can get healthy soon because this is exactly the type of game where he's needed.
Summers and Freeman have to step up and help Roy and Pat who have carried the team today. Dajuan has scored but made some shaky decisions.

Can this team come back from a run from other team? We saw them fold against Memphis--just want to see the Hoyas battle. COME ON GUYS! FIGHT!

wow we are not a good team once we lose a lead. We look pathetic on offense right, lots of standing around and watching whoever has the ball. Zero movement, and no one except Hibbert is even making an attempt to crash the O glass.

AWFUL JOB OF FLOOR BALANCE--how many easy hoops have Huskies gotten from simply having numbers due to nobody getting back on defense?
If you aren't as athletic--you have to play smart basketball. Watch the easy shot that UConn will get out of this out of bounds play--there is 2 seconds on shot clock and I guarantee they get an open look.
I like the aggression from Hibbert, Summers, and Freeman, but where is Ewing? Without Patrick--this would be a UConn 15 pt game right now and he's sat far too long--Hoyas need to go to lineup with Freeman at 2, Wallace at 1 and Summers, Ewing, and Roy.
Keep fighting and compete!
