I dont know how this will work out because he does have a tendency to mumble but we will have to see

Jim Calhoun — the former UConn basketball coach whose Hall of Fame winning ways were aided and abetted by roughly 20 arrested players, recruiting violations and such outstanding academic failure that UConn was sanctioned by the NCAA — has been hired as an analyst by — brace yourself — ESPN.

A few months from now, they'll be calling Calhoun will be the best new analyst in the game. He's smarter then all the rest and I'm sure he's getting some coaching for being on-camera.

If you could actually make out what he says, I'd take the under, but no one's going to pick up on it anyway. So no fine all year.

I agree, he will be very good.

Heaven help the closed captioning people.

I just can't wait till they ask him to give his thoughts about Calipari and his nonsense ideas like his practice combine. Coach will call it like he sees it and not play nice.

I heard that the Jin Calhoun documentary that is being shown at The Bushnell will be also shown on CPTV. Does anyone know if that is true, and if so, when will it be on?

Just wanted clarification. No value in validating a guy who isn't even close to being accurate with his statements. So I don't read their stuff or link them for others to read. You can't stop these guys so the next best thing to do is leave them in as big a vacuum as possible imo.

The Mushnik crap on Calhoun was silly and simplistic--exactly the type of commentary he had done a great job of skewering (MLB playoff announcing) before getting to that bit.

Honestly, it seemed more of a dig at ESPN, but a cheap one, and not at all out of character with his shtick. At least he didn't bring up Jay-Z and the Nets again...

 

[intlzncster]

That's OK. Mushnik doesn't like black people. That's all you need to know.
