Caron's son

JC Butler in the game for UC Irvine right now against Kansas State. Caron in the crowd cheering him on.

 

[UconnU]

Great game too! Go Anteaters!

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Great game too! Go Anteaters!

Real fun game so far.

After getting 10+ minutes only four times over the first 27 games of the season, the freshman has been counted on more with at least 10+ minutes in each of the last 8 games.

Congrats on the win!

Awesome! Didn't realize he played for the Anteaters. Really kicking myself for picking K-State to win.

I love the name Anteaters. So awful it’s beautiful. The Yardgoats of the NCAA.

Nice little athletic program at Irvine as well. NCAA baseball champs not too long ago, defending men's volleyball champs, have been top 2 in their men's basketball conference for the last few years

Almost as good as that of their counterparts in Santa Cruz.

Sounds like a good AAC travel partner for Gonzaga /s

Why is he not at UCONN?

Why is he not at UCONN?

We can't give scholarships to players averaging 1.5 PPG in the Big West.

I'm watching the game against Oregon and it just occurred to me, and I don't know if its true or been covered before so forgive me, but did Caron name him after Calhoun? That would be pretty tremendous if so.

 

[Devland]

The Anteater's? There's an uncle joke in there somewhere. But I won't go there.

Probably not, because Caron’s given name is James (JC = James Caron, he’s a junior), and I bet he was born before Caron came to UConn.
