Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

To all of our UConn fans, we welcome you to the Holy Land of Hoops message board. The Big East has changed quite a bit in the past seven years. I think you'll find we have become a more unified group of schools, separated from much of the larger college landscape, because we are basketball schools first. Our love is basketball. We recognize that UConn athletics share that philosophy and we welcome you home, back to the BIG EAST.

I feel like UConn is our new Wichita State. Their fans are crazy.. like batshit crazy in your face all the time about how they are the best thing since sliced bread. If nothing else, it should be a fun time beating you.

Officially official.

Welcome back, Huskies.

How long before someone submits a FOI request to UConn for something? That's been one thing that the private schools have seemed to hold dear that everything could be kept private, but with the addition of a public institution some of the behind the scenes stuff will now be open for the world to see.

Welcome back. I hope you lose every conference game this year and then take an L to DePaul in the BET.

The day is finally here. I wish it could be under happier circumstances. Hopefully, UConn's first year back is played and with some quantity of fans. Way to early to speculate, but very much hope we still have the BET with full capacity.

Wow, wasting no time throwing the heavy insults. Comparing one of the most successful programs in the country to a mid major who won an NIT once?

UConn has a pretty good team - maybe not as strong as they've been in the past, but still strong.

I think if you're hoping they'll lose every conference game this year, you're going to be disappointed.

DePaul lost some good players, but has some pretty good talent coming in this year. I think we've got a legit chance to beat UConn in the BET, though.

Wait... we're talking about women's hoops, right?

Anyone good with Wikipedia edits? We need a new map.

It’s a joke about obnoxious fan bases. Lighten up, Francis.
