Adama Sanogo, the best big man in the Big East and the star of this year's UConn team, joined TOP DOGS this week to talk among the effort that it takes to get back into shape after an injury, moving from Mali to America as a 15-year old, his development as a big man and supporting a team as despicable as Chelsea Football Club. It's unclear if we can still be fans of Adama now that we know he supports Chelsea.

Beating the Bonnies, whiffing at West Virginia and prepping for Big East play13 Dec 202100:32:44

Today's guest on TOP DOGS is ESPN commentator Jon Crispin, who played at Penn State and called UConn's win over St. Bonaventure on Saturday. That means that he broke down the film of all of UConn's previous relevant games to prep, so I'm not sure there is a national broadcaster that has a better feel for what this team is in the moment.
