Message: [QUOTE="Candyman, post: 2857193, member: 4084"] Knew this was coming about Calhoun and Ollies class. This was a different time and UConn was not a national power. Yes the dream season helped but it was one year. East Coast recruiting was dominated by other Big East schools like Syracuse, St John's, Providence, Seton Hall, and even Pitt (Charles Smith). Calhoun had to travel to get that class and he had to sell the Big East and not actually UConn. Once we started winning it opened up the east for UConn like RIP, Freeman, Talik, Ben Gordon, Villaneavu, Kemba, AO, Bazz and whoever else I missed from the east. Yes of course he still traveled around as I'm sure Hurley will once he establishes the Northeast & the DMV. [/QUOTE]
