At least, I think that is what is going on here. Nevertheless, its nice to see Hasheem back on the cover of a national magazine, and this time he did not even insult anyone.
UConn made the cover as part of SI's Elite 8 (for now).The story itself focuses on Memphis more than anyone else, and although it does mention UConn a few times, it does not cover a lot of new territory. Calhoun gives a quote about the rigors of the Big East and the oft-repeated anecdote about professional wrestler cheap-shot artist DeJuan Blair committing a flagrant foul "dominating" Hasheem Thabeet also makes an appearance.

Haha I love that he’s the only one playing defense. It makes sense though. If they showed him on offense it’d be the ball flying through his hands out of bounds (jk, lol, lyl, ttul. He’s getting better (just in time to leave!)).
Memphis and Duke, wow. That’s a weak top 8. Weak year this year.

I think there should be more said about how bizarre the picture is. I mentioned in my blog some observations about the cover that I think you guys should consider.
