To refresh your memory, UConn men’s basketball made a power move a few weeks ago by stealing strength and conditioning guru Mike Rehfeldt from former AAC rival, Cincinnati.

It’s been over a week since the passing of Stanley Robinson, and not a day goes by that we don’t think of our dearly departed Sticks.
If you’re of the same sentiment and want to help the Robinson family honor their son’s life, please consider donating to the Stanley Robinson Memorial Fund. Proceeds will be given to the Robinsons so they can pay for a funeral service and properly lay their son to rest.
