UConn's most efficient scorer of late has been freshman Jeremy Lamb, who had a career-high 24 points.

The fifth-ranked Huskies' game against the unranked Golden Eagles was the 1,200th of Calhoun's 39-year career. He has coached more games than any active Division I coach. "It's a lot of games," said Calhoun, whose record is 840-360. "It's a lot of times to hear those whistles, a lot of times to look at [referee] Jimmy Burr's face.

However this plays out, Burton comes across as a bully. And if I’m the other donors to the UConn football program, do I want to be associated with this guy? What needs to happen here is for UConn to solicit some new donors, and for the current donors — assuming they believe in Hathway’s stewardship — to step up to the plate with fresh money.

"I thought starting the second half (last) Monday at Carolina and she carried it through the whole week," Auriemma said of Dolson. "She's gotten a little bit better every day. She's gotten a little bit better at the things she needed to get better at.

"The glow will always be there with Rutgers," said UConn coach Geno Auriemma. "It's not the same as it was a few years ago; things change. We were playing them twice a year [in the regular season] and that made it much more competitive.
