I'm sure he was mad. He feels like they should have won. I really don't buy into the whole I'm mad now because we lost last time. He or Cronin aren't going to recreate their teams to play again in a couple of weeks. Having Brimah back will certainly change how they play inside but if we play up to our capabilities we should win at home. The rest is coach speak for the fans.We didn't lose we won't have the same have to win mentality that the other team will nobody wants to get beat twice by someone, they will have extra fire in them to beat us, you hear all the time coaches say in conference play it so hard to beat someone twice because you know each other so much and see him all the time. If you heard Coach Ollie post game he was mad that he let us do what he knew we were going to do next time we play them I guarantee you it will be a lot harder fought game, lower score, plus with brimah back that adds even more of a reason to count that as a loss.

I've seen enough basketball in the last 28 years to know better than that. Having Brimah back might make the Huskies lazier on D, or change strategies in a way that will be advantageous for the Bearcats. It could change the game in a 100 different subtle ways and still not change the outcome.
Brimah is not Kenyon Martin.
brimah sucks
Brimah was the conference's DPOY last year. UConn is already #4 in adjusted defensive efficiency. He's going to make them better at protecting the rim. Offensively he isn't post threat but you know he is good for one or two lob dunks from Hamilton.I've seen enough basketball in the last 28 years to know better than that.

Is there a better lob passer for dunks in college bb than Hamilton? I don't think so.
Houston won 71-68. And just like that we control our own destiny in the conference.
We do not control our own destiny. However this greatly increases our odds of winning the regular season title.
If I took a guess I'd assume motivational speaking is not your vocation ? lolWe do not control our own destiny. However this greatly increases our odds of winning the regular season title.
