In today’s Boston Globe, Dan Shaugnessy—who looks a little bit like Phil Spector—was indignant over UMass’ decision to host a banquet in former-coach John Calipari’s honor. And with good reason: Calipari left the UMass program in shambles and on probation when he left to coach in the NBA.

The rules were changed so those games wouldn’t have been vacated five years later. Back then it was even hard and fast… I’ve gotta stay positive, and I gotta look forward.
