QUICK HITTERS: A few quick notes on UConn to date: UConn has a record of 20-7 in games that head coach Jim Calhoun has missed all or part of during his tenure at Connecticut. George Blaney has coached 13 complete games in Calhoun s absence and UConn is 7-6. Alex Oriakhi leads the Huskies in rebounding and is looking to become the first freshman to lead UConn on the boards since Emeka Okafor ( ) and Caron Butler ( ) did it as rookies in backto-back seasons. Kevin Freeman ( ) and Nadav Henefeld ( ) are the only other freshmen to lead UConn in rebounding under Jim Calhoun. He is the only freshman currently listed in the top 10 rebounders in the BIG EAST. The Huskies have led the nation in blocked shots for the past eight seasons and chances for a ninth title in a row are alive and well, despite the departure of Two-Time National and BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year Hasheem Thabeet... Through 23 games, Connecticut is blocking 8.6 shots per contest (198 blks) and lead runner-up Mississippi State (188 blks in 23 gms) at 8.2 blks per game. Gavin Edwards is averaging 30.3 minutes per game, No. 1 in the nation among players coming off the bench. Edwards started the first three games of the season, but has come off the bench since. He averaged 9.1 minutes per game in his first three seasons. Oriakhi has totaled six double figure rebound games this season, including four games with 13 or more boards. His rebounding to date has put him in relatively heady company among Husky freshmen under Jim Calhoun. His total of four 13+ rebound games ties him with Emeka Okafor and Josh Boone for the most under Calhoun. Okafor totaled 16 double-figure games as a frosh, but Oriakhi needs one more to tie Caron Butler for second place at seven. Boone and Kevin Freeman also had six double figure rebounding games as freshmen. Stanley Robinson is 23-of-56 (41.1%) from three-point range this season, which is notable when you realize that he was 3- of-23 (13%) from long range in 28 games in Jerome Dyson leads the Huskies in scoring at 19.0 points and reached the 20- point mark for the 25th time in his Husky career in the win over DePaul. He is one of ten UConn players under Jim Calhoun to crack the 20-pt mark 20 or more times. Richard Hamilton, with pt games, holds the UConn/Calhoun mark. It is not always who starts, it s who finishes. For UConn, it has become clear who those five players are through 23 games. Dyson, Walker, Robinson, Oriakhi and Edwards have played 80.3% of the Husky minutes in CAREER 20-POINT GAMES AT UCONN Under Jim Calhoun 1.

H.S Westport (Mass.) H.S Dedham (Mass.) H.S Northeastern Univ Univ. of Connecticut Head Coach JIM CALHOUN 24th Season at Connecticut As he continues to build on his remarkable coaching resume, University of Connecticut Hall of Fame Head Coach Jim Calhoun has already established himself as perhaps the greatest program builder in college basketball history. Now in his 24th season as head coach at UConn and his 38th year as a collegiate head coach, Jim Calhoun has unquestionably stood the test of time as one of college basketball's legendary leaders and reached two other career milestones in membership in the ultra exclusive 800-win club and a third trip to the NCAA Final Four. Jim Calhoun's phenomenal coaching success story includes winning two NCAA National Championships (1999, 2004) at Connecticut, earning basketball's highest honor while still an active coach, election into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as a member of the Class of 2005, and induction in 2006 with the other greats of the game as a member of the Founding Class of the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame. Jim Calhoun's college coaching career includes just two stops- Northeastern University in Boston and the University of Connecticut in Storrs. In 14 seasons at Northeastern, Jim Calhoun led NU from the Division II ranks to status as one of the nation's top Division I mid-major programs. In 23 seasons at Connecticut, Jim Calhoun has transformed UConn from a regional contender to a two-time national champion and Connecticut now ranks among the nation's elite college basketball programs. In May of 1986, Jim Calhoun was named head coach of basketball at the University of Connecticut and that announcement launched what has become one of college basketball's greatest coaching accomplishments. As head coach of UConn Basketball, Jim Calhoun has led the Huskies to the top of the NCAA basketball mountaintop-winning two NCAA National Championships while also claiming an NIT Championship and taking the Huskies from second division placements in Big East Conference standings to a record-setting 16 league titles and lofty status as the most successful program in Big East Conference basketball history. Jim Calhoun's 38-year overall record as a collegiate head coach is , moving into rarified air and status as a member of the 800-win college coaching fraternity with the win over Marquette on February 25, Coach Calhoun is one of only eight Division I coaches in NCAA history to have earned their way into that 800-win club. During his history-making years as head coach at Connecticut, Husky Hall of Famer Jim Calhoun has compiled an overall record of Prior to 1986, Connecticut Basketball had posted just two 23-win seasons in history. Since arriving at UConn in the spring of 1986, Jim Calhoun has "averaged" 24.2 wins per year. Commenting on Jim Calhoun's phenomenal story of success at Connecticut, Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim, a fellow Class of 2005 Hall of Fame inductee, said, "Jim Calhoun has done as good a job as has ever been done in college basketball history in taking over a program that was at one level and taking it to a totally different place. A lot of coaches have been able to take good programs or even really good programs and keep them at that level or make them a little better, but Jim Calhoun has done something at Connecticut that I really don't think anybody has ever done any place else." When he arrived at Connecticut as the 17th head coach of men's basketball on May 15, 1986, Jim Calhoun immediately began to chart a new course for success. He promised to "do it the right way, with no short cuts". He noted he wanted to establish a basketball program at UConn that would annually be called one of the top programs in the nation. Mission accomplished. Two specific dates headline the Hall of Fame coaching career of Jim Calhoun-March 29, 1999 and April 5, On March 29, 1999, Coach Jim Calhoun did what most observers felt was impossible as he led Connecticut to the 1999 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball National Championship, beating heavily-favored Duke in the title game at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida. The 1999 NCAA Championship completed a clean sweep in for the Huskies. UConn won both the regular season and tournament titles in the BIG EAST Conference. The Huskies were the No. 1 seed in the West Region of the NCAA Tournament and Connecticut ran off six straight NCAA victories to finish the year with a single-season school record 34 wins (34-2) and claim the Overall Record: Overall Record at Connecticut: BIG EAST Record (includes tournament): Overall Record at Northeastern: ECAC North Atlantic Record (includes tournament): Overall National Postseason Record: National Postseason Record at Connecticut: NCAA Record at Connecticut: NIT Record at Connecticut: 12-4 BIG EAST Tournament Record: ECAC North Atlantic Tournament Record: 13-2 NCAA Championship Appearances (21) (16 at Connecticut, 5 at Northeastern) 1981, 1982, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009 NCAA Championships (2) 1999, 2004 NCAA Final Four (3) 1999, 2004, 2009 NCAA Elite Eight (8) 1990, 1995, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2009 NCAA Sweet 16 (12) 1990, 1991, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2009 National Invitation Tournament Appearances (5) 1988, 1989, 1993, 1997, 2001 NIT Championships (1) 1988 BIG EAST Regular Season Championships (10) 89-90, 93-94, 94-95, 95-96, 97-98, 98-99, 01-02, 02-03, 04-05, BIG EAST Tournament Championships (6) 1990, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2004 ECAC North/ ECAC NAC Regular Season Championships (5) 80-81, 81-82, 83-84, 84-85, ECAC North/ ECAC NAC Tournament Championships (5) 1981, 1982, 1984, 1985, 1986 University of Connecticut 1986-present W-L W-L Final Ranking Year Overall Pct.

26 Head Coach JIM CALHOUN, page 2 national championship. UConn finished the season ranked No. 1 in the nation in the final USA Today/ESPN Top 25 poll. On April 5, 2004, Jim Calhoun cemented his place among the all-time collegiate coaching greats and as a future member of the Hall of Fame by leading UConn to the 2004 national title. In directing Connecticut to its second NCAA National Championship in a six-year span, Jim Calhoun became only the second coach to win multiple NCAA titles since the tournament field expanded to 64 teams in In , UConn began the season as the consensus No. 1 team in the nation and was one of only two teams to spend the entire season in the top ten. The exciting run to UConn's second national title also produced the Huskies' sixth Big East Tournament Championship. Connecticut would conclude the season with a final overall record of In the six-game string of victories during the NCAA Tournament, UConn dominated its first four opponents by an average margin of 17.5 points per contest. At the 2004 "Final Four" in San Antonio, UConn stormed from eight points down with less than three minutes left to upend Duke in the national semifinals and the Huskies were in charge from start to finish in the national finals, leading Georgia Tech by as many as 25 before winning the NCAA Championship game before 44,417 fans in the Alamodome. Another important date in Jim Calhoun's coaching career, this one taking place off the basketball court, occurred one year after he directed Connecticut to its second NCAA Championship. On September 9, 2005, with some 60 of his former players in attendance, Jim Calhoun's five decade body of work as one of college basketball's greatest coaches was formally recognized when UConn's coach was enshrined into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. In April of 2005, Jim Calhoun became just the seventh recipient of the prestigious John R. Wooden "Legends of Coaching Award" presented by the Los Angeles Athletic Club. Previous winners of the award include fellow Hall of Fame coaches Dean Smith, Mike Krzyzewski and Lute Olson. In November of 2006, Coach Jim Calhoun's career achievements were recognized by his peers when he was named a member of the Founding Class of the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame In his 38th season as a collegiate head coach in , Jim Calhoun ranks No. 9 all-time in NCAA career victories with 43 (40-13 at Connecticut, 3-5 at Northeastern). Coach Calhoun is in overall NCAA play (with two NCAA titles). Jim Calhoun's overall career record for national postseason tournament competition is a remarkable (43-18 in NCAA play, 12-4 in NIT play). He has coached in the NCAA Tournament 21 times and in the NIT five times (including winning the 1988 NIT title). In his time at Connecticut, Jim Calhoun has compiled a stunning overall record in national postseason tournament competition (40-13 in NCAA play, 12-4 in NIT play). His 40 NCAA wins at UConn, all achieved in the past 20 years, far outdistances the entire total of four NCAA victories recorded at Connecticut before Coach Calhoun took over the Husky basketball program in the spring of Including 2009, Jim Calhoun has led UConn to 16 NCAA bids in the past 20 years. Under Coach Calhoun's direction, UConn is a stunning 27-4 in NCAA First and Second Round competition since The Huskies have earned 12 NCAA Sweet 16 berths in the past 20 years (including 2009), eight Elite Eight appearances, three NCAA Final Four trips and two National Championships. Under Coach Calhoun, UConn has captured a league record 16 BIG EAST Championships, ten regular season crowns and six tournament titles. Prior to Jim Calhoun's arrival as head coach at Connecticut in 1986, UConn had never been ranked in the end-of-the-year National Top 25 polls. UConn ended both the 1999 and 2004 national championship seasons ranked as the No. 1 team in all of college basketball and the Huskies have finished ten different seasons ranked in the National Top 10. One collegiate basketball writer, authoring an article on Connecticut basketball for a national publication, said it best when he noted, "Bringing the UConn program to this point from where it was when he took over is nothing short of miraculous". The late Alan Greenberg, a former columnist for the Hartford Courant, boldly stated "the hiring of Jim Calhoun in 1986 was the most important hire in the history of the State of Connecticut." Jim Calhoun's story of success at the University of Connecticut commenced very quickly when in his second season as UConn head coach ( ) the Huskies went on an improbable five-game winning streak following a bid to the National Invitation Tournament and claimed the 51st annual NIT title in March of 1988, beating Ohio State in the championship game at Madison Square Garden. In March of 1990, at the conclusion of only his fourth season as head coach of the Huskies, Jim Calhoun was the consensus choice as the College Basketball National Coach of the Year. He guided UConn to a 31-6 overall record, a year dubbed "The Dream Season" at Connecticut, as the Huskies won both the BIG EAST regular season and tournament titles and advanced to the NCAA Elite Eight. Coach Calhoun was named National Coach of the Year by five different organizations (Associated Press, United Press International, The Sporting News, CBS-TV Sports, Basketball Weekly). UConn's first Big East Conference championships in 1990 (regular season crown and tournament title) and the Huskies' near-miss at a Final Four berth created a new passion among Connecticut fans as "Huskymania" was born. During the season, Jim Calhoun and Connecticut basketball would begin a three-year dominance of the Big East Conference unmatched in league history. UConn won three straight Big East regular season titles (through ), posting a three-year conference record of 49-5 and an overall record of In addition, during that three-year span, the Huskies advanced to the NCAA Elite Eight in 1995 (losing to eventual national champion UCLA) and to a pair of NCAA Sweet 16 appearances (1994, 1996). A number of firsts dotted the UConn landscape during that superb three-year run-donyell Marshall became UConn's first consensus First Team All-American in 1994, UConn Basketball was ranked No. 1 in the nation for the first time in school history (Feb. 13, 1995), Ray Allen became UConn's first two-time All-American in 1996, and UConn set a Big East Conference and school record by winning 23 consecutive games (Nov. of 1995 to Feb. of 1996) During the season, Jim Calhoun directed UConn to a 32-5 overall record and the Huskies won both the regular season and tournament titles in the Big East Conference. In a heart-stopping NCAA Sweet 16 game, UConn missed four shots in the final seconds before Richard Hamilton hit a fall away shot at the buzzer to lift UConn to a win over Washington. UConn would lose to the nation's top-ranked team, North Carolina, in the Elite Eight, but a young Connecticut team had set the stage for its national championship run one year later. In March of 1999, Connecticut became the first team in Big East Conference history to win back-to-back regular season and tournament titles and on March 20, 1999, Jim Calhoun and UConn earned their first trip to the NCAA "Final Four" after beating Gonzaga in an NCAA Elite Eight game in Phoenix. One week later, at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, Ohio State and Duke fell at the hands of the Huskies and Connecticut became the first team since Texas Western (1966) to win the national championship in its first Final Four appearance. In March of 2002, Jim Calhoun coached UConn to victory in one of the greatest Big East tournament finals in history, a double overtime victory against Pittsburgh as the Huskies again claimed both the regular season and tournament titles. Connecticut advanced to the NCAA Elite Eight behind All-American Caron Butler before bowing to eventual national champion Maryland. UConn set the stage for its second national championship under the leadership of Jim Calhoun by sharing the Big East regular season title in and advancing to the NCAA Sweet 16. Following the season, Jim Calhoun received the prestigious Metropolitan Award from the National Basketball Coaches Association (NABC). The award was presented at the NABC Convention at the 2003 NCAA Final Four in New Orleans. The award is given by the NABC on behalf of the National Invitation Tournament and the Metropolitan Intercollegiate Basketball Association and is presented for continued outstanding service for the enhancement and betterment of college basketball. Previous winners of the award include Mike Tranghese, John Thompson, Dean Smith, Lou Carnesecca, Dave Gavitt, John Wooden, Adolph Rupp, Joe Lapchick and Phog Allen. Connecticut put together a brilliant nine-game winning streak in a 26-day span at the conclusion of the season en route to its sixth Big East Tournament title and second NCAA National Championship. After adding its 2004 NCAA title to the national championship won in 1999, Jim Calhoun and UConn joined Duke as the only schools in the nation with multiple NCAA titles since the tournament expanded to 64 teams in The UConn season saw one the finest coaching performances in Jim Calhoun's distinguished career. The Huskies had to replace the No. 2 (Emeka Okafor) and No. 3 (Ben Gordon) selections in the NBA Draft Lottery while also overcoming the loss of the school's all-time assist leader (Taliek Brown). In addition, Coach Calhoun and the Huskies dealt with the adversity of two separate life-threatening illnesses to team members. Despite those obstacles, Jim Calhoun and the Huskies finished the year 23-8 while winning the school's ninth Big East Conference regular season title and 15th overall championship. UConn ended the season ranked in the National Top 20 for the 10th time in the past 12 years and advanced to national postseason tournament play for the 18th consecutive season, one of only four schools in the country to do so. In , Jim Calhoun led Connecticut to a sixth 30-win season (30-4 overall). UConn would earn its tenth Big East Conference Regular Season title, advance to the NCAA Elite Eight for the seventh time in the past 18 years, and conclude the college basketball regular season ranked No. 2 in the nation by the Associated Press. Jim Calhoun is the only coach in the history of the BIG EAST Conference to have been named BIG EAST Conference Coach of the Year four times. He earned his first BIG EAST Coach of the Year award in and also won the honor following the , and seasons. John Thompson of Georgetown and Lou Carnesecca of St. John's each earned the prestigious honor three times. In the summer of 2002, Jim Calhoun was selected as a member of the inaugural induction class to the New England Basketball Hall of Fame. After directing Connecticut to both the 1999 and 2004 NCAA National Championships, Jim Calhoun was honored on separate occasions as the recipient of the

He also received the prestigious Victor Award as College Basketball National Coach of the Year and was the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) District I Coach of the Year. Much like his success at Connecticut, Jim Calhoun's performance as head coach at Northeastern (MA) University in Boston for 14 seasons was nothing short of sensational. He developed a program from Division II status to a nationally-recognized squad which became a perennial NCAA Division I tournament team. At NU, Jim Calhoun won 20 or more games in five of his last six seasons, chalked up a brilliant record during that span, and earned five NCAA Division I tournament berths. His final three years at Northeastern resulted in NCAA automatic bids each season and a three-year mark of At Northeastern, Jim Calhoun's teams averaged 17.9 wins per season. He was a three-time New England "Coach of the Year" and a three-time Kodak District I "Coach of the Year". In leaving Northeastern in 1986, Coach Calhoun left perhaps the most talented team in the school's history, along with a first round NBA draft pick in senior Reggie Lewis, who later became captain of the Boston Celtics before his untimely death during the summer of As was the case at Northeastern, Jim Calhoun's success at producing top-flight collegiate stars, who also excel at the professional basketball level, is an annual happening at Connecticut. A total of 22 former UConn stars that played for Coach Calhoun have played in the National Basketball Association (NBA). They include: Clifford Robinson ( ), Tate George ( ), Chris Smith ( ), Scott Burrell ( ), Donyell Marshall (1994-present), Donny Marshall ( ), Kevin Ollie (1997-present), Ray Allen (1996-present), Travis Knight ( ), Richard Hamilton (1999-present), Khalid El-Amin ( ), Jake Voskuhl (2000-present), Caron Butler (2002- present), Emeka Okafor (2004-present), Ben Gordon (2004-present), Charlie Villanueva (2005-present), Hilton Armstrong (2006-present), Josh Boone (2006-present), Rudy Gay (2006-present), Marcus Williams (2006- present), Hasheem Thabeet (2009-present) and A.J. Price (2009-present). As many as 14 of those Connecticut stars could be listed on NBA regular season rosters in , more than any other school in the country. In both 2007 and 2008, Ray Allen, Richard Hamilton and Caron Butler were each named to the NBA All-Star roster. UConn was the only college in the nation represented by three players in those contests. Four UConn players have also been members of NBA Championship teams (Scott Burrell with the Chicago Bulls in 1998, Travis Knight with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2000, Richard Hamilton with the Detroit Pistons in 2004, and Ray Allen with the Boston Celtics in 2008).
