    Portal Time, Portal Time

    The UConn men’s basketball Huskies are going to be very good in 2026-2027. Dan Hurley and his staff have done an incredible job on retention and recruiting of new players in the early portal period. Some guys are leaving, and we’re sad to see them go, but it’s hard to be anything but excited about what lies ahead. In this episode, we discuss the portal additions, roster retention, and the departure of Luke Murray from the staff. Enjoy! This is a public episode.

    What a Run

    The 2025-2026 UConn Huskies fought all the way to the final game’s final whistle. Their comeback effort fell short against Michigan on Monday night, but they delivered an inspiring performance despite injuries across the starting lineup and a clear size disadvantage. In this end-of-season episode, we recap the championship game, highlight the keys to the Huskies’ run to Indy, and discuss what it all means for the program’s place among the best in the nation.

    Final Four Preview: Here for rings, not watches

    The UConn Huskies are good. They came back against Duke in the Elite Eight and now they’re in Indy.

    UConn > Duke

    We shocked the world, again. Braylon Mullins hit one of the greatest buzzer beaters in college basketball history, sending Duke packing and putting the Huskies in their third Final Four in four years. It’s hard to even comprehend how the Huskies came back from a 19-point deficit that looked worse than it sounds. All we know for sure is we’ll remember this forever. Enjoy!

    Elite Eight ft. Duke

    The UConn Huskies are in the Elite Eight for the third time in four years and 14th time as a program, with 13 of those appearances coming since 1990. Up next, they take on a favored Duke team that’s the tourney’s top overall seed and, as usual, loaded with blue-chippers and NBA Draft prospects. In this episode, we discuss the Sweet 16 victory over Michigan State, driven by their senior leaders Alex Karaban and Tarris Reed Jr., and how the Huskies match up against the Blue Devils. We also discuss the success story of this season and what it would mean to take down the evil empire one more time. Enjoy! Check out our YouTube channel for press conferences and other content!

    NCAAT Preview: Appropriate Levels of Respect for Furman

    It’s that time of year, folks, to put the regular season and all of its issues in the past and look forward to another year of UConn overachievement in the NCAA Tournament. But first, Furman, a pesky Southern Conference team that was the six-seed in its conference tournament before winning three straight to punch its ticket to the dance. They have a well-coached team with solid size and shooting, and a stud leading scorer in freshman Alex Wilkins. Bob Richey’s squad also has two experienced big men who are their second- and third-leading scorers. We talk about this matchup and more in the latest episode of the Fast Break, including the sour taste of the Big East final, the East region bracket, and thoughts on who we would prefer to see in a potential second-round matchup between UCLA or UCF.
