    I always say its a psychological thing with UConn hate. It is opposing fans hating our success.

    "UConn football sucks, it will never be anything" translates, "UConn is good at everything except football, I hope they don't get really good at football too" .

    "Jim Calhoun should retire" means "please god, let Calhoun retire so we have a better chance of winning titles".

    Doyel's a joke and a mean one at that. All one really needs to do is just hear one of his live interviews where someone disagrees with what he has written to get an appreciation of what an idiot the guy really is.

    I especially love the comments below the article where a Kentucky fan of all things goes off on what a sleazeball Calhoun is. Ha ha the irony.....

    What really cracked me up was his statement that "Calhoun legally funneled money" to those beltway ballers. Well, if it was legal then, then there was no problem. So many MD fans complained that the NCAA changed that rule. But, it was legal when JC did it. Thus, nothing to mention. But Doyel mentions this as his best effort to make JC look bad.

    The only thing worse than the actual article are the stupid responses by readers that are feeeding into his BS

    No big deal... other posts? Herr, huh? On this board, I'm probably a homer--which I guess isn't saying much.

    He legally funneled money to a Parks&Rec. center. That was dirty, if you compare it to Gary Williams, who was legally funneling money to the Pump Brothers (actually, Williams was doing something illegal, comping F4 tix to the Pumps which they were reselling).

    I'm guessing the confusion lies in the fact that there is a Cuse poster called Upstate.

    Also love that the article suggests that Calhoun's quote about "not needing an extention" was somehow a shot at his bosses. Further, at the end of the article Doyel states that he doesn't know the name of the new school president, yet he seems to be positive that - whoever the new president is - she must not like Calhoun very much. Naturally, he couldn't be more wrong.

    A negative article from CBS? WHAT A SHOCK!!! What next? A negative article from Wetzel or one of the other tards at Yahoo? All of these guys need a good beating, including you Jeff Jacobs! And I can't wait until Calipari slips up again. The bourbon-swilling-inbred-hick-banjo-playing-rednecks deserve everything they get now. The squid has managed to maintain plausible deniability but even Gotti eventually got caught. And I hope a gang member sodomizes and executes World Wide Wes.

    screw the idiot. I think JC can coach a few more years, but his health is paramount. I just think that we don't have a replacement on campus. JC can coach any kid who is coachable.

    I'd like to ask the writer - Are you stupid or just dumb? One of the best coaches in the country, period. I don't think anyone is better at developing average talent into good/great players.
