He's as good a passer as I've ever coached in 35 years. He's capable of 10-15 assists every night.
More Quotes from Jim Calhoun:
I can still see Calvin Murphy getting 62 points, and I can still see flashbacks from the pictures of Wilt getting 100, ... You go from the biggest to the smallest. The wonders of the game, from the guys playing pickup to the kids shooting in Indiana to the inner city kid who finds a way out through the sport of basketball - and I don't mean necessarily to the NBA - are embodied in this game. It doesn't take wealth or pure size. It takes heart, repetition, talent. All that stuff is embodied in the game. When I walk through that building, it's embodied there.Jim Calhoun
Magnificent. He was just absolutely wonderful.

Don't get too carried away. Get around this league, go to some of the places, get on the road and see some of the friendly faces in this league and maybe we'll see you another time.

I don't think we shot well (38.7 percent), but I think we played well and yet it took us 30 minutes to shake them, maybe 35 minutes to shake them. That's just by their tenacity and how hard they played. Providence has a young team. The three guys who I think played really well for us happened to be seniors and that makes a difference in college basketball.

They find a way to win. A lot of the things that happened against Washington were plays that players make. Guys who refuse to lose a basketball game, guys who are down by five with 30 seconds to go but dont believe theyre going to lose. And that, as a coach, you dont teach. Maybe you try to set the mood that were still here, but you cant set the mood if you dont have winners with you.

Right now, that guy would be Denham (Brown). In the last two games, it's been Denham against very good defense.
