Footage of Jim Calhoun as a player on AIC

Working on getting the documentary "UConn Men's Basketball: An Illustrated History" uploaded to YouTube. It aired on CPTV a while back, and covers the entire history of UConn Basketball through the 1999 championship. They provided footage of Jim Calhoun as a player going up against UConn:

Quite frankly, he was overhelping. Got caught a few times. Come'on Jim, you muddahumpa!

He was on offense. I think Calhoun would have pulled himself from the game if he was playing like that on D.

That Calhoun kid never misses.

Probably the best ever YouTube clip that didn't feature Vida Guerra or Jen Selter.

Did Toby ever have hair ?

JC ripping nets.

JC and AIC got eaten up by UConn when we played them. I remember Tom Penders stripping him a few times. To be fair, JC didn't have a lot of help as UConn was the far superior team. JC was one tough SOB.

Sign him up!

I don't know about JC but that's the best hi-def video I've seen in that era.

Does he have any eligibility left?

Quite frankly, that was a long time ago.
