And with a UConn loss, we should move up a spot.

Hartford Courant says:

It's Not That Wagner Was That Good, It's That UConn Was That Bad

Staten Island Advance has the Wagner perspective:

Wagner College stuns No. 18-ranked UConn, 67-58

Seen Alterique Gilbert play a few times on the AAU circuit and he never impressed me as highly ranked as he was. I kept thinking his ranking would drop and possibly UCONN would drop his offer but now here he is playing 35 minutes off the bench for UCONN as a freshman and he played quite well. I thought I'd take Daron Russell and Jeff Dowtin over Gilbert but maybe I just caught him having some less than stellar games in AAU.
URI recruit Steve Enoch played 7 minutes going 0-5 FG with a couple rebounds.
UCONN certainly did not look like a top 25 team

Didn't Enoch play for some random Eastern European's countries National Team this summer? I thought they were expecting big things from him this year...

Imagine if Wagner had Hassan. They would've been blown out.

New job makes it a little more difficult to post as often as I once did.

I was wondering why the Leg-humpers played someone halfway decent for their opening game. Someone's gonna get fired for scheduling like that.

From Sunday's Hartford Courant: "UConn's big men were pushed around by Wagner's 260-pound MIke Aaman . . . "

Was he 260 when he was here?

UConn drops another one at home, losing 64-61 to Northeastern. First time that they've been 0-2 since 1968

Also, Wagner lost to Lowell tonight. More evidence that the Hartford Courant up there knows what it's talking about.
