Watching Whiskey-OSU. I've never seen Calhoun work a game before, and I'm pleasantly surprised.

He's no Bill Walton, but he is good.

He could be a prick in interviews when he was coaching, but he's doing a good job and sounds like he's enjoying himself.

Yep. This place was inundated with them a couple years ago, now that they had a football season with nothing to show for and about to have a huge failure of a basketball season they're no where to be found. It's pretty awesome.

Calhoun is awesome. One of my favorite press conference lsimmons@wirelesstelcorp.com ever was him immediately saying, "not a dime back" when some smarmy liberal anti-sports goon asked him about coaching salaries vs the deficit in the state

You're not that stupid are you?


Calhoun on why he didn't get in state recruit Ryan Gomes (for the umpteenth time he was asked the question)

I like him. Did anyone like Bob Knight when he was an analyst?

Loved knight because he explained why teams would do certain things and what they should be doing if they weren't doing good.

I liked him too, but many did not. It was hilarious when he got mad during a game when some fan in front of him wouldn't sit down.

I had forgotten about that.

And the smug reporter might've gotten off easy had he not sarcastically said to Calhoun "that's very polite". After that, he was doomed.

OSU basketball sucks. Right now you can find tOSU fans in the NHL season thread.

Bob knight seems like a really unlikable person, but from what I remember he wasn't a bad analyst.

Agreed. I wish ESPN would have kept him.
