I just heard that John Chaney died today. I wonder if he ever kicked Cal's butt? Whenever I think of Chaney, I think of this. RIP.

Oops. Wrong thread.
He had some well coaches teams, and he was always entertaining during pressers.
Just curious. Does anyone know the "back story" to this John Chaney-Calipari confrontation? Some of the comments from the video link Bulldog Tom posted are really funny. I particularly liked this one"
You gotta admit....that's funny right there. LOL!Calipari better live forever. He's got an ass whipping waiting for him on the other side. R.I.P. Coach Chaney
I remember the fight, but not the exact circumstances. This is what I found. UMASS had just beaten Temple in the A10 tourney by 1 point. Chaney was very upset that Calipari had stayed on the court to yell at the refs. He broke up Calipari’s press conference and called him out. One thing he said was you were given a game against GW the other night by the refs, you are getting all the calls. Then you send your thugs out against us and get all the calls again. That is basically what happened, and it was on from there. John Chaney was a fighter for his teams and beliefs.
Side note Temple was number one for a stretch in the 1987-88 season.
Never liked Chaney nor John Thompson both from the northeast and the Big East Conf at the time. But I enjoyed Chaney’s success at Cheyney St. Just saying.
