    Did anyone think the shameless self-promoter would miss the opportunity to blow his own horn against the #2 ranked team on a Gameday telecast? Be serious.

    UConn announces that Jim Calhoun will have a surgical procedure Monday and won't coach vs. Syr or at PC. Didn't rule out return this season.

    I wish him the best. I know his players are going to want to Win One for Calhoun on Saturday.

    BTW, Whitey, I really appreciate your updates across various threads. A simple "like" doesn't capture it, I think you are a very valuable poster.

    Agree, I hope he gets well. I also hope we can PLEASE not take shots at someone going through medical issues. It's trashy and classless.

    That said, I'm all for dick kicking UConn on Saturday.

    All jokes aside- best of luck to JC. Love him or hate him, he's one helluva coach. Get well soon.

    Sad to hear that. Maybe the unannounced new plan is to try and get him back for the BET, to try and recapture postseason magic one more time. Hope Jim is better soon. Playing UConn is not nearly as interesting with Blaney on the bench.

    Blaney and Boeheim coached against each other for many years. I think they might have also played against each other in the Eastern Professional Basketball League in 1966-67. Blaney played for Allentown then and I think Boeheim played for Scranton. I think there is a good story out there to be written on this.

    I agree, it feels nice to have young Doug Marrone giving us universal SU updates and perspectives... :)

    Your post and Whitey's handle immediately made me think of this:



    "Well? What are you going to do about it, whitey?"

    You know it's a good day when you get consecutive clips from Blues Brothers and Caddyshack.
