Courant- Five takeaways from an uninspiring win over Manhattan for UConn men

I don’t understand how Jalen had more TOs than points against Manhattan. Is he playing hurt?

All I can say is big thanks/ shout out to Vital in that game because he brought more hustle and glue guy stuff than a few guys combined. While some of them played like they stayed out all-night on some post finals celebration ( maybe multiple nights)....As Hurley mentioned in his post game above the best thing about that game was it was a win...period.

Vital being the toughest kid on the team has never been in question. His toughness is usually enough to offset his propensity for bad decisions and shots. 7 steals on defense is from being really tuned in. Hurley has kind of had mixed results toughening up the other kids on the team.
