Chasing Perfection: UConn's most far-fetched week yet (Ep. 84)
UConn’s already strange season turned even more bizarre this past week with a tight win over Princeton that added to the already-heavy injury toll and featured one of the craziest finishes that we’ve ever seen. The shorthanded Huskies also fell to Maryland, but we explain why we’re actually encouraged by the team’s performance in the loss. We also discuss Inêsanity, the frontcourt’s standout performances, and why the new year could provide hope. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Substack.

Customer Reviews
Love it but needs a tweak
First, to the previous reviews complaining that it’s all about WBB, the podcast is about women's basketball. I don’t go to a NBA podcast and ask why they don’t talk about football or tennis. I appreciate that a female sport is getting its due.
Second, I do love the commentary. They go in depth about a team that I love to follow. I wish there were more podcasts like this for other teams.
Finally, there is one major flaw that has to be fixed. Megan needs to fix her side of the mic. She has had issues both seasons. This season she is hard to hear half the time, due to poor projection and enunciation. She does have some good insight and has way more breadth of knowledge on the WBB landscape than Daniel has. Unfortunately, her inability to communicate this has caused multiple people I know to stop listening to the podcast.
Super show
I love the in-depth research and the knowledge exhibited by the two hosts. It is a fun and informative listen!
Fantastic if your a UConn WBB fan
This podcast is fantastic for any fan of UConn women’s basketball. The coverage is thoughtful, in-depth, and has a good mix of humor!
