Oh man thats just insane. You go to small gym at a small college and walking the sideline is one of the best and most successful coaches the college game has ever seen. Its gotta be surreal for some of these kids and definitely for a lot of the parents.

Jim Calhoun's New Team At St. Joe's Starts With A Winning Exhibition

>>St. Joe’s 20-man roster had 18 freshmen, and two sophomores who transferred in as the school is in its first semester as a co-ed institution.<<

That official looks 14 years old. He may not even know who is yelling at him.

 

[tcf15]

He's still got it

Really cool. For the love of the game

Imagine if he never rode a bike.

I love the man, but unless him being here would have made a difference in terms of us being in a P5 conference by now, I'd rather be where we are, i.e., rebuilding with Hurley, who I feel confident is the right coach for our future*, instead of wondering who Calhoun's replacement is going to be.

*NB: Admittedly, I felt the same way about KO until last season, so...grain of salt and all that.

If I lived in Connecticut I would try and make all the games.

Courant Article Good read. Apparently he still has some health issues.

Turnovers, missed shots, mistakes were enough to get him to jump down off that stool and holler. “Rebound!” … “Box out!” … Push it!” Like an old UConn team, the Blue Jays struck like a torrent a few minutes into the game, to turn a two-point lead into 20, using defensive pressure to create offense. Like an old UConn team, an old Calhoun team. He called timeout 34 seconds into the second half, with a 19-point lead, and aired his players out over a fundamental mistake.

The Courant article got me even more excited for the home opener next Friday.
Glad I bought tickets for that.

A sense of urgency - memo to Randy

Imagine if he never rode a bike.

He might have had a deadly heart attack if he never did. Injuries from falling aside, it probably extended his life.

I guess that's fair because his falls shortened mine.
