It’s still early, but 2019 has not gotten off to a great start for UConn athletics. The first action of the year came from men’s basketball, who put together arguably one of worst performances of the past few years by blowing a 13-point lead before falling to USF 76-68 on the road on Jan. 2. Almost exactly 24 hours later, the UConn women’s basketball team suffered their first regular season loss in 126 games with a 68-57 loss to Baylor.
So far, the only bright spot from 2019 from UConn is the football team hiring a defensive backs coach.
