You had me until the end. Unless your guy is Neil Sullivan or Eric Spina im not buying it. Not sure why UConn is "key". Calhoun is gone, that team and program now suck. It's only going to get worse for UConn.

Anthony Grant is the man and there are dozens and dozens of people on this board i can't wait to see slobbering all over him in the next couple years.

AD: Coach, you only have your one recruit, two of Arthur Mueller's holdovers quit on the team and the hands down best Senior class in history graduated. Your leash is NOT a long one.

Nothing personal man but check your golfing buddies BAC next time.
