    Anyways here is some more stuff I have gathered.
    -Miles never played for UConn, UConn wasted a scholarship on him so that hurt them already.
    -Texting recruits was banned in 07, Miles was being recruited in 06.
    -What major college team doesn't call a player more than once a month?

    Dang. We are dirty now? Some people take it to extremes. The same with the "Calhoun is a scumbag" comment. People don't even know the guy.

    It would be a huge mistake to say UConn is dirty "now," because that would imply that it just started being that way.

    Do you have inside information that the rest of us don't have? I have been following UConn my whole life. There has been some controversy with a few different things but UConn has never been considered dirty on a national scale. Some of the players have gotten in trouble but the only violation that I really remember is from 1996 when 2 players received a free plane ticket to go back home.

    Maybe you are referring to the Rudy Gay situation where UConn scrimmaged his AAU team which brought the AAU team a lot of money. I believe a rule was instituted to not allow that later on, but at the time it was legal.

    Thanks for your interest in UConn basketball! We really appreciate the interest from other parts of the country.

    Good game Mizzou... looked like they would just roll over at the beginning and came back to make it close. I'll admit a lot of bad words were said.

    Nice job by UConn.

    All this without Dyson- that makes this even more impressive.

    I admit, I was rooting against the 2006 team because they seemed to rub me the wrong way (something abut laptops being stolen)- in contrast, Hasheem Thabeet seems like a nice guy who plays mean defense.

    Also, this team they beat a GOOD team in the West Regional Final.

    No offense, but the two title teams faced a 10 and 8 seed, respectively- this year, they beat a very good Mizzou team.

    That Mizzou team was good. Tough way to get into the Final Four for UConn.

    UCONN 26 for 32 from the free throw line . Keep that % up and we win the Championship . Mizzou only 6 for 12 .
