Got any good Liberace jokes?

Sure, Liberace makes a bet with another musician. Then instead of being an honorable, stand-up guy, he welches on the bet. Liberace is jerk.

Not funny? Well it really is never funny when a guy can't be trusted to live up to his word.

This is a NO NONSENSE guy. He's also the coach who had that altercation with Puff Daddy at UCLA after his son expected special treatment from the program and received none of it from from coach Sal. He "pushed his son too hard" :rolleyes:. Also, Puff Daddy is INSANE to attack this guy, he's HUGE.

Men's Basketball Adds Sal Alosi To Staff
Alosi explained that his plans for the UConn program go far beyond just strength and conditioning.

“We will build a 24-hour wellness program, where the time spent off the court and out of the weight room will be emphasized just as much as the time spent training,” he said. “We will be educating our team about how to eat, how to sleep, how to hydrate, how to recover -- establishing a game plan in all areas that can have a positive impact when it comes to on-court performance. There is a much greater commitment than just running and lifting. Ultimately, the tools we teach our players here will benefit them on and off the court, and long after their time at UConn.”

Damn...we could have just kept Diaco! :eek: The summary really makes it look like Alosi just tore a page out of Disastro's "playbook"....or could have been the other way around? ;) Either way, it won't take much for Alosi's results to be far far better!

He seems like a sarcastic, hard-ass, take no BS, accept no excuses kind of guy. A bit like Hurley and another guy we had here with the same initials as God (for some at least). Made some mistakes and seems to have straightened them out.

Looking forward to seeing some results. Our teams have been physically dominated even by less skilled opponents in recent years.

Talented guys who have made mistakes are good value in the budget. This is the second redemption story in Hurley’s staff. I admire a head coach willing to take some risks and politically correct type criticism hits.

Think "Wilbur 'Shooter' Flatch" in "Hoosiers".
 
Love this hire. Best customer I ever had. He would come into my shop twice a week, and each time he would order one small pie. Once delivered, he stood up and proceeded to tell us to throw it out because he hadn’t eaten a carb in years. He would then go back to his booth, order 4 chocolate milks, and pull out a tub of broccoli, chicken, and brown rice.

Resounds loudly

>>“I just think the timing with a guy like Sal,” Hurley said Wednesday during an event at Rentschler Field. “And his personality as coach and the standards he sets for our program right now is a pretty good fit. Our team wasn’t very physical last year, a bit soft at times, it doesn’t pass the eye test when you see them. There has been a lot of turnovers in our strength and conditioning in the last year. This is a guy who is going to bring a ton of intensity and toughness to a team that it probably lacked.”<<
 
This guy's an absolute animal. Exactly what we need. You don't want your SC coach to be 'right' in the head. Good hire.

Carlos Daniel would have I bet, but he left after two months on the job. Really wish we could have gotten some more background info on why he up and left so quickly.

An NBA gig is an NBA gig I'm guessing.

Exactly, in fact you want your S&C coach to NOT be right in the head.
 
Hopefully this guy bans video games. I can’t stand seeing snap stories of the players playing 2k all the damn time

Didn't this guy fight some rapper over his son at UCLA? Hurley better have some assurance about his behavior.

And he's the Jets tripper! HARD PASS.

This is the first hire I DO NOT like from Hurley.

Lol...As if you know what you’re talking about. Just stop.

We need a guy who will punch Drake or someone in a pinch.

Our team has looked like a bunch of high-schoolers for half a decade.

I don’t care if this guy punched the Delai Lama so long as he puts some muscle on these pipsqueaks.

The last however many years we were always the physically weakest team on the court to the point of embarrassment. Alosi is your typical football strength coach psycho, he'll teach them how to eat and lift weights.

I'm sure banning a video game so as not to offend a delicate online message board poster while he creeps on college students is right at the top of Alosi's list.

I thought Cuse Socks was a UCONN student atm.
