UCONN Basketball – Men’s Repeat National Championship Odds

The 2023-2024 college basketball season is officially here. Today, we’re breaking down the UCONN basketball team for men’s college basketball. Find out why the UCONN Huskies are the favorites to repeat as National Champions this year. Let’s get right into it.

UCONN was dominant late last season, winning every NCAA tournament game by double digits in route to winning the 2023 National Championship. The scary thing is that despite losing several important pieces from that team, this year’s version might be even better.

The Huskies return my preseason favorite for Player of the Year, big man Donovan Clingan. At 7’2” and 280 pounds, Clingan is an absolute monster, but he’s also extremely skilled. He’s got great touch around the rim, dominates the boards, and has the court vision to find the open man when the defense collapses on him. Additionally, his size and length make it extremely difficult for any opponent to score around the basket. However, he’s far from the only thing UCONN’s opponents will have to worry about this season. Ultimately, you can look for Clingan to carry this UCONN basketball team this year.

Furthermore, UCONN has incredible depth. Both their starting unit and their bench might be better than any other team’s best five, and for that reason, they are the biggest preseason favorite I’ve seen in a long time. Obviously, this is not the consensus opinion, but from what I’ve seen, the size, length, athleticism, and overall talent of this team is better than any college program I’ve seen, maybe ever.

Coach Dan Hurley has figured something out after taking over this UCONN program in 2018. He’s doing an amazing job recruiting and evaluating talent, so much so that it almost feels unfair not to mention the entire roster as players that will make a big impact this season.

Freshman Stephon Castle is the highest-rated prized recruit, but he’s joined by fellow freshmen Jayden Ross, Soloman Ball, and a whole host of other players that make this year’s UCONN squad the favorite to cut down the nets and repeat as national champs this season. They’ve got shooters all over the floor, many guys who can handle the ball and make plays for their teammates, and a never-ending wave of talented athletes that will make life difficult for their opponents on both ends of the floor.

Here are a few opportunities I’ve seen to benefit from the success of this impressive UCONN team…
