Calhoun is a genius!!!!

[Palatine]

His technical changed the game. COMPLETELY.

How does he know?

Game turned right at that exact moment. If only Blaney had his timing during the Seton Hall game.

 

[ibleedhuskyblue]

the man knows coaching. gotta love him.

 

[art4life]

Like a light switch being turned on,
our defensive effort exploded after his T

 

[arnie3]

I'm still in shock! WVU must be, too!

Forget his timing, I was hoping he would have a pulse by the way he coached that game.

 

[jibsey]

The players feed (fear) off his intensity , I thought he was going to strangle Boatright at center court for that inbounds throwaway, but Boat took it well.

 

[uconnsouth]

down 10 half way thru 2nd half I thought we were just about done. Games like this change the course of a season

Yeah I don't think it's going out on a limb to say if Blaney was coaching today we lose by double digits.

Somehow that doesn't seem like hyperbole.

 

[Palatine]

Technical - UConn scores 10 straight. I saw it, still don't know if I believe it.

 

[NHUConnfan]

Jim Calhoun is king of timing the technical. That's why if he ever gets one...I will never complain. Usually it's warranted anyway. Plus, no one wants to be around mad Jim.

46-36 when the JC gets Teed up.
64-57 final

So WVU scored 11 points the rest of the way.
Our beloved Huskies scored 18.

You didn't get A's in math, did you Palatine?

Certainly seems less than it should be. Calhoun is right though...he will not go down without a fight. Hell, I think that's why he's coaching this season.

That is because 64-36 =/= 18.. 64 - 36 = 28. Lol, we out-scored WVU by 17 from the technical foul til the end of the game. Gotta love Jimmy.

36 + 18 = ?

 

[jibsey]

This whole thing is quite simple. After the T the players decided that it would be more fun to spend a week in an Iranian prison than practice under Calhoun if they didn't shape up.

 

[August_West]

JC is a BAAAAADDD Man. I was very close to the bench tonight and you could feel EVERYTHING change with that T. Including the fact that he stared Lasers at Truck, which Im convinced caused him to miss the first Technical FT.
You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim

 

[mets1090]

I didn't even see the technical get called and I'm not even sure they announced it at the game. I figured it was on Calhoun obviously and that things were about to turn around. Didn't know how right I was.

 

[UCDaveD]

And you don't mess around with Jim

What the hell is thesharkyard?

 

[DogMania]

It was a well timed T.

I was at the game and it was a strange one. For the first 3/4th of the game the team looked like they were lacking a ton of confidence. They were being out worked by WVU. Thne suddenly it was as if they were a completely different team. They were playing with energy that I hadn't seen in weeks. Nice effort, nice win.

Same here. I had no idea the technical was called. Never saw Jim do anything, never saw the ref T up anyone, and it was never announced at the game.

I also figured it was Jimmy, of course. But I was pissed that he did it during a TO instead of during the run of play.... shows how much I know.

Turned the game around, unquestionably.

 

[Chief00]

Quite frankly, not to take away from Coach but I thought the change was us extending our defense - got their legs tired and they could not buy a shot after that. My man Drummond was huge. He was totally dominant in the last 10 minutes. Period.

Bird's Eye view of the storming towards Boat at half-court from section 206. Swear to God I thought he was going to use his claws to tear the kids throat out. Solid analysis all around. Would love to see some more passion and fire from these guys as the assertiveness for most is just not there. Anybody catch the shove Shabazz gave Lamb towards the end when he slipped and called a TO? Any info on that?
