If you could design the Calhoun statue, what would be the pose?

[Palatine]

I would have JC on a ladder ( great symbolism) holding up a net. I would probably lose the scissors. Loosely based on the photo below.

on one knee clapping, like he used to at the end of big games

I think it should be the arms crossed, slight grin of satisfaction pose (something like this). This sums up Calhoun and shows him taking pride in what he built at UCONN. I'd like to see it at the new practice facility on a second floor overlooking the new men's practice court so he can look down on his team in perpetuity.

got to go with "get off the court" pose

Or if the Yard doesn't like my preference of the crossed arms, grinning JC, maybe this is more to your liking??

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw the thread title.

Calhoun always sitting with his hand to his face, showing off a ring.

Standing erect, yelling at something with little suspended concrete spittles flying from his mouth.

You could then imagine the "you suck" being yelled at his players.

Just a dime...with Jim's face on it instead of FDR.

I don't know how it would look as a statue or which player you would use, but my favorite image is Jim hugging one of his guys. The emotion displayed and the emotion felt when viewing these scenes along with the breaking voices of his guys when commenting on their feelings for him are just incredible. A statue that could somehow capture that would be awesome.
