Huskies #19 in both polls; this reporter on short list for two major awards

On the strength of last weeks two wins both polls, ESPN/Coaches and the
AP Poll, the Huskies moved up to #19 in both. If you read last nights write up of the Texas game you know that is exactly what this reporter predicted
I received another call from the National Sportwriter's Assn. last night informing me that I am now on the short list for their two major awards for the 2009/2010 season. I have been asked to plan to be at the final Four for the awards presentation.
This week the Huskies take on Providence, away, on Wednesday night and Marquette at home on Saturday. These are two unranked but perenially tough Big East Squads; if the Huskies are headed the way we hope they should win both.

I have had the unfortunate experience of watching the last two UConn games in a public forum. Eating at the Sanibel Grill bar I revealed myself as a Husky fan. The Syracuse people had a field day with me and today my beer was soured by a number or Cinncy fans. The Giant season was as much as a fan should have to swallow. I am temporarily suspending my minor affiliation with the aforementioned basketball squad until further notice. This well written blog will be my only contact. If "Fairweather" be my new monicker then so be it. Lefty
