Color analyst asked JIMBO if he would consider COACHING again.. He didn't say no. Also said, he misses the Big East and MSG but, UCONN is playing and thrashing Memphis right now..Praised Napier for staying 4 years.

Announcers then commented about Larry Brown still Coaching at 73..Boeheim will soon be 70.
 
have UConn give up on football, and join Big East again. Big East make them sign agreement that if they attempt to leave would cripple them financially. BTW, has anyone noticed that the conferences stabilized? I like where we are, and the addition of two more powerhouses would be the final piece. Im not talking Dayton or St Louis either.

UCONN doesn't fit anymore. They are a huge state school with a huge budget. The rest of the Big East are small private schools. We'll be fine with us, if we get it together, Georgetown and Villanova. I say to UCONN and Syracuse.....good riddance!

Duke is a private school going up against the resources of North Carolina. Why can't Georgetown hold it's own against UCONN?

Wait till VCU joins the fray.

Not the point. Point was, have UCONN rejoin the Big East. Duke gets the best players all clamoring to go there. Coach K hasn't had to recruit hard in 25 years. Duke has nothing to do with which teams are in the Big East. Maybe I'm naïve, but I'd like to think our players and rest of the big east team's players actually try to become college students. At UCONN and Syracuse, not so much.
 
Don't even go there.

The point was not to remotely think about Calhoun ever Coaching here but, only that it was a interesting interview for a 70 something year old EX Coach of a Multiple times NCAA champion, not dismissing the idea of Coaching again.

Keady is what, 77?
