UConn 11-2 run Syracuse 7-1 run Tied at 13 with 7:58 left in the first half. What is basketball, boys and girls?

Off and running from Mohegan Sun for year #20, and Syracuse commits a turnover on its opening possession by stepping out of bounds. Potter called an illegal screen on Jayden Ross about 10 seconds later, so away we go into the Connecticut night. Another Orange turnover after that.

UNCASVILLE, Conn. — Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends. We’re so glad you could attend. Come inside, come inside. Season #20, game #1 of God only knows how many. It’ll be UConn and Syracuse baptizing this year’s festivities at Mohegan Sun.

Off and running at Walsh. Boeheim’s Army has broken the seal while the Let’s Go Pirates chants have begun. And Sha is in attendance. #shbb #HALLin

SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. — I needed to get out of the house and do something with my life. Covering TBT for the first time in several years, because Hall In is back in it, hosting Boeheim’s Army. #shbb #HALLin

The 37-year drought in Ann Arbor is over. Hail to the victors valiant, the national champions, the Michigan Wolverines. Dusty May, hired just two years ago, has coached the maize and blue to a 69-63 victory over UConn. #GoBlue

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 07/04/2026
Off and running for a national championship after #UConn corrals the cantaloupe (hi @sportsmatters.bsky.social!) and Tarris’ first attempt is too strong. Johnson’s first shot on the Michigan side rimmed out too, so we’re scoreless through the first 44 seconds. #GoBlue

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 07/04/2026
One more time for #UConn’s all-time winningest Husky. No stage is more appropriate for Alex Karaban’s grand finale.

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 07/04/2026
This could be the last time This could be the last time Maybe the last time, I don’t know Game #96 ends the season in Indianapolis. Either UConn wins its seventh national championship and third in four years, or Michigan wins its second and first since 1989. #UConn #GoBlue

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN MY FINAL FOUR CAREER! @anonymouseagle.bsky.social @bracketdobber.net @rjcurren.bsky.social @samfederman.bsky.social

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
A Jayden Ross three, a Tarris dunk, and an Underwood timeout have stretched the #UConn lead to 18-9 through the first 6:40. I’ll let the crowd tell the story.

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
Off and running in the Final Four, and Solo’s first shot is off the mark on the other end of the stadium. Illinois missed a three on its first possession too. No score after the first minute. #UConn #Illini

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
INDIANAPOLIS — Getting to this stage the first time was a career highlight. Every trip thereafter is only a greater blessing. A pleasant good afternoon to you from the Final Four for the third time. Game #95, between UConn and Illinois, tips off a little after 6.
031
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 30/03/2026
They’re going down the stretch in DC, and Solo Ball has a chance to make this a two-point game on the other side of the U4. I’ll let the crowd tell the story as we come to the final 3:42 of regulation. UConn trails by just three now, 67-64.
042
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 29/03/2026
It’s Big Red time in DC after #UConn pulled within seven. Tarris Reed has 23 to offset the Huskies shooting 1-for-16 from deep. There’s still 10:59 left in regulation, and Duke’s lead that felt insurmountable is now a more tenable 56-49 margin. I’ll let the crowd tell the story.

Off and running in the nation’s capital for a trip to the Final Four after a Roger Ayers false start. Tarris is first on the board with two free throws after drawing a foul, and then he just denied Cam Boozer. Away we go into the night. #UConn

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 29/03/2026
The Final Four field will be completed here today. Game #94 is the East regional final. Either UConn or Duke will join Illinois, Arizona, and presumably, Michigan, next weekend in Indianapolis.

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 28/03/2026
Off and running for a second time in the nation’s capital. Kohler was quick to strike first for Michigan State, but Karaban fired back with a triple just off dead center. #UConn #Spartans

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 28/03/2026
We have one more game here in the nation’s capital. Game #93, with UConn and Michigan State fighting for a spot opposite Duke in the East regional final. #UConn #Spartans

Duke 11-4 St. John’s 15-4 since then As the Red Storm now holds a 19-15 lead with 11:51 remaining in the opening stanza, what is basketball again, boys and girls? #sjubb #GoDuke

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 27/03/2026
Off and running from high atop the Phone Booth. St. John’s first shot grazed the front rim, but Evans worked the clock on the other end — and drew some contact with no call — to break the seal for Duke. Mitchell answered for the Johnnies to tie. Away we go into the night.

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 27/03/2026
WASHINGTON — It’s the first time St. John’s has made it this far in 27 years. Will the ride be extended another 48 hours, or will Duke slay the Johnnies? Game #92 starts a high-octane doubleheader. #sjubb #GoDuke

Off and running late into the night in South Philly. UCLA got a steal and a Clark layup to draw first blood, and it still stands 2-0, Bruins, after 70 seconds.

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
The last of the weekend, and game #91. Either UConn or UCLA will join a loaded East regional field in DC that includes Michigan State, Duke and St. John’s. #UConn #GoBruins

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 22/03/2026
Tennessee with a killshot to go up 28-20 and launch Ryan Odom into a 30. A 12-0 run from the Vols has made this an eight-point game with 6:32 left in the first half after Virginia went on a 12-4. What is basketball, boys and girls?
073
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 22/03/2026
Off and running on a Sunday night in Philly. Tennessee needed eight seconds to strike first on a Boswell three off the right arc, but De Ridder answered on a rebound and putback. As is usually the case, UVA fans traveled well. #GoHoos #GoVols

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 22/03/2026
Off we go into the night for two more in South Philly. Game #90 is the opener of a second-round Sunday doubleheader, with Virginia and Tennessee fighting for a trip to the Sweet 16. #GoHoos #GoVols

Off and running deep into the night in South Philly, and Alex needed all of 14 seconds to break the seal in his last NCAA Tournament. After forcing a Furman stop, Mullins stepped on the sideline to turn it over. Here we go with your late night main course.

PHILADELPHIA — At long last, the madness descends upon the north side of the Mason-Dixon Line. Game #89, a 2/15 matchup between UConn and Furman that will tip off sometime around 10:30. Get the caffeine and come along for the ride.
041
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 15/03/2026
There are signs of life among the Huskies. A 13-2 run triggers a Pitino timeout with 12:24 to go, and it’s Big Red time as UConn is within seven at 49-42.
000
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 14/03/2026
And it’s going the same way for both of us.

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 14/03/2026
Five months later, the championship showdown everyone expected comes to life. Game #88, the highly anticipated battle between St. John’s and UConn for a Big East tournament crown. Some matchups don’t need any introductions…this is one of them. #sjubb #UConn
020
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 14/03/2026
Cooley wants a timeout and it’s Big Red time in Storrs South. I’ll let the crowd tell the story. #UConn
040
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 14/03/2026
Off and running in the nightcap at the Garden. Playing Jock Jams before tipoff when UConn is down here is certainly a choice, because nobody ever expects the reaction. Tarris just beat the shot clock on a BLOB from Silas, but The Notorious BOC is going #ToTheMonitor. And it was overturned.

Moments before the tip of game #87, the second Big East tournament semifinal between @UConnMBB and @GeorgetownHoops. The winner gets St. John’s for a conference championship tomorrow night. #UConn #Hoyas

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 13/03/2026
Off and running on 33rd and 8th, and St. John’s already has a 4-0 lead on the strength of Hopkins and Zuby establishing themselves under the rim. The Johnnies need to do that early and often to avoid being drawn into Seton Hall’s style. #sjubb
031
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 13/03/2026
It took until March for me to lose track of my game count, so I guess that’s an improvement. Seton Hall/Creighton should have been game 84, not 83. UConn/Xavier should be game 85. On we go with game #86, a Big East tournament semifinal featuring St. John’s and Seton Hall.
000
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 12/03/2026
Big Red time. All #UConn with 8:14 left in the first half, up 31-18 on Xavier.
020
Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 12/03/2026
Off and running on 33rd and 8th, and #UConn’s first possession came up empty. Xavier’s did too, as a Borovicanin three straightaway bounced off the iron. Demary broke the seal the next time down the floor for the Huskies, however.

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 12/03/2026
Welcome back to MSG for game #84, the third quarterfinal of the night. UConn begins the postseason tonight against Xavier. #UConn #LetsGoX

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 12/03/2026
From high atop Madison Square Garden, I bring you game #83. It’s Seton Hall and Creighton in the second quarterfinal, with the winner to meet St. John’s tomorrow. I’m doing a broadcast demo of this one with @jguerette.bsky.social. #shbb #HALLin #GoJays

Jaden Daly @dalydoseofhoops.bsky.social · 12/03/2026
Off and running on 33rd and 8th, but Zuby got a long offensive rebound of a missed three. He got two more boards on St. John’s next two shot attempts right after that, then mjssed a hook shot. St. John’s went 0-for-6 on its first possession. #sjubb #pcbb
