UConn men’s basketball beat Butler and Georgetown after losing to St. John’s, but it’s still not good enough, according to some Husky fans.

If you’ve been tracking the discourse after UConn’s 79-75 win over Georgetown on Saturday, the environment at games is bad, the team isn’t great enough, and a laundry list of other complaints follows.

Here at The UConn Fast Break Podcast, we refuse to give in to this negativity. This is already one of the program’s most successful seasons and part of a four-year run of excellence that UConn has never seen, if it can avoid an NCAA Tournament upset.

The assembled squad is pretty good, only two years removed from consecutive titles, during a time when everything we know about team-building is evolving.

In this episode, we spend about 45 minutes breaking down the St. John’s, Butler, and Georgetown performances and the highlights and concerns stewing on the court. Then we indulge in some commentary on the online discourse surrounding this year’s team, including attendance, fan fervor, and managing expectations.

The Huskies have $2 Beer Night vs. Creighton on Wednesday before a big road date with Villanova on Saturday. Then they host St. John’s and Seton Hall before ending the season at Marquette, and then we have the Big East Tournament. Great times ahead!
