It was a tough conference in his last years and JC first . 
The straw that broke the camels back was Perno last team started out 9-0 . and was supposed to be decent . However his best player got involved in a gun incident and was suspended that sealed his demise .      The folks at Storrs could take losing but not guns . Remember Perno was a local kid and Huskies Hero snd the folks at Storrs weren’t exactly the most adventurous group. 
   This might shock you but Perno had one more conference win in his three worse seasons than Calhoun had in his first three seasons .However Dom was trending down while Calhoun we trending. up and we were optimistic of eventually making the tournament. That was our first goal 
We came close in 1988-89 but a couple of heartbreakers away .  The conference was brutal and a difficult place for a bottom team to move up 
That’s why the dream team was so special. Coming from winning 6 conference games to Champs and missing the FF on a OT buzzer beater .
