Another gem of a speech from Calhoun

[uconnfan68]

No one cares about how a guy who scored 100 points in a game shoots free throws, We're not stupid.

28-32 free throws that game.

We will avenge you Coach. We will avenge you!

Coach will be in Houston. I don't expect him not to be invited into locker room/practice..

Mic him up. Calhoun will informally coach the team if it's close in the 2nd half.

OMG let’s play right now. I’m ready to run to Houston.

He does. And that’s to Coach Hurleys credit. He gets it. There was a time during our JC heyday where a frosty relationship between Bob sr. and JC was discussed here and elsewhere ( decades before Dan was coach) because it affected our new jersey recruiting. There was always mutual respect there because both of those guys are two tough old SOB’s and usually when that’s the case they repel like the same sides of a magnet. Dan is smart enough and clear headed enough to draw across ALL resources. And deserves full credit for that. And so does JC , he pulled him out of those island.

In the presser, when asked about Calhoun, Dan was all praise, but he also brought in Geno. He again talked about how much he loves learning from them, and then made a joke about how hard it is to have a conversation with both of them at the same time. It got a laugh. And then he said he wanted a picture with both of them at the Final Four, I assume together.

But JC was always someone who was going to butt heads with people. It is what makes him the GOAT. Glad Hurley was able to keep him a part of the program, and I'm glad that JC loves the program enough that he'd be there to support a Hurley.

If Dan brings a trophy home I think he could make that happen.

 

[UC313]

Win the double headah.

80 minutes.

Gahhhhhhh lettsss goooooo. Whats left of my muscles completely tensed up watching that.

 

[StllH8L8ner]

Nah. everyone knows who Rick Barry is, he's the dude who shot free throws like a chick.

I believe the proper term is “The Granny”.

Was anyone watching Fox Channel 61 tonight? WTF? And this is a local station?

 

[SportsFan88]

The man who built this thing from the bottom expressing that to the team HAS to be so gratifying for both the players and coaches

WFSB put up "Jordan Hawkins" on the screen during an interview with Alleyne. I think Connecticut TV must be rife with Syracuse journalism grads.
