Getting Calhoun's record right

[Orangeyes]

From Andy Katz

UConn has been waiting for the committee on infractions to give it a ruling on whether it should count the two wins and one loss during Jim Calhoun's three-game suspension his record. NCAA stat guru Gary Johnson said this is the first time the suspension came from the COI, not the school or conference. In the past, any temporary absence by a coach has gone on his or her record. Johnson said as soon as the COI rules then he will pass it on to UConn. Johnson said the reason Mike Krzyzewski of Duke didn’t get the 4-15 record applied to his career numbers during the 1995 season when Pete Gaudet replaced him due to a back injury was because Duke told the NCAA Coach K was not going to return that season.

In the unlikely event that K ends up 4 games short of 1000 wins, or maybe somebody eventually passes him for most wins all time by a couple of games, I'd bet that 1995 record would be added in.
