Some great stuff on Charley V, Jim Calhoun and "the right stuff" at Uconn.

Mike Anthony: Charlie Villanueva, A Well-Rounded Player And Person, Excited To Reunite With Jim Calhoun

I saw this. He gives a lot of credit to Calhoun being tough with him and how that helped shape his Life. Really nice article.

Hoping of course that Hurley coaches in this same mold: very tough, demanding of your best effort, and supportive as a coach and mentor.

Always liked CV. He really matured into a fine man who does a lot of good.

And my favorite haiku subject.

Charlie, Charles, Chuck
A lot of names for one dude
Villanueva

One of my favorite Huskies. But I feel like whenever I read one of these types of articles every player is one of my favorties.

"That team was the best of UConn’s four championship teams — one of the best in recent NCAA history, in fact "

I always got the sense that Charlie is a genuinely good guy. Glad to see him and Coach Calhoun reunite.
