Message: [QUOTE="Blakeon18, post: 3129257, member: 35"] Years ago...after the UConn men won their first championship in 1999 I was in Storrs planning to try to see the women practice. In town I saw Jim Calhoun entering a convenience store. I said "Congratulations" on the championship. A rather subdued 'thanks' was the reply. I knew he had played Augusta after winning the ring...and I asked him about how fast the greens were. Boom! He stopped and we had a minimum 10 minute chat about his round....no more 'subdued'..he clearly remembered every blessed shot he had taken and went into detail about many of them. As an avid golfer I knew every hole and it took only an occasional question for JC to wax poetic about the entire round. I hope we hear about Geno merrily three putting his way around Amen Corner. Trivia bar bet: What UConn player waited on table during the Masters...Ricky Moore...he is from Augusta. Dad...Buck Moore....was/is a caddie at Augusta and an occasional caddie on the PGA tour...he never has had a really good player's bag....I think. [/QUOTE]
