I know some people think UConn men’s basketball didn’t exist until the 1990s, but the program was great in the 1940s and 1950s under Hugh Greer, and then in the 1970s under Dee Rowe. UConn owes a lot to him; may his memory be eternal https://t.co/ScDpLXaJwD

I am so sad to hear the loss of Dee Rowe. I look back fondly at the days I used to swing by his office and he would tell me stories of his career and I was in awe of him. Years after I left UConn, I came back for a game and was so impressed he remembered me. Rest In Peace Coach! https://t.co/YPUE2a5hTz

When I coached at Boston University I had the pleasure of Dee coming to our practices and games because one of his former players at UConn was the Head Coach (Dennis Wolff). Dee treated me like I played for him. R.I.P. Coach Rowe

“He just kept talking about ‘this is a special place. This is a special place.’ And I thought, man, it didn’t look so special when I walked around campus, but he convinced you it was.” Geno Auriemma on first visit to UConn, the day he met Dee Rowe. https://t.co/D8VOk4yAmj
