1. UConn coach Jim Calhoun said two weeks ago that he wanted to be back on campus for the start of school despite having hip surgery earlier this month after falling off his bike. Well, he made it a one day earlier, according to his staff. Calhoun was on campus Sunday to meet with the staff and players, and he plans on being back on campus Tuesday. Calhoun’s presence is great news for the staff and players who are hoping to get to the season in October without any more major distractions. The Huskies can’t play in the postseason due to poor Academic Progress Rate scores. But they have two major events in November: a Nov. 9 game against Michigan State at Ramstein Air Base in Germany, then the following week in the Paradise Jam in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
