The University of Connecticut’s basketball season ended Saturday night with an 82-73 Final Four loss to Michigan State. While stars like A.J. Price and Hasheem Thabeet get much of the credit for this team’s success, it may have been small forward Stanley Robinson who played best this postseason.

There’s only one man that Mitch Barnhart needs to call, and when he makes that call, needs to refuse to take no as answer. That man: John Calipari. He is everything that Kentucky and their fans want.

Each time anyone hit a basket to start the game, it felt like the roof was about to blow off. The same at the beginning and end of each overtime.
