Jim Calhoun Jeff Quotations

People will fall in love with Jeff Adrien. All he does is come to work, put the hard hat on, just keep getting balls off the glass. Hopefully, as we move up in caliber and size, he's still able to do that.

Obviously, we are disappointed that Jeff will miss the game at Providence, but the rule as stated in the rule book is very clear. Other players will have to step up and make up for his absence and I have complete confidence that will happen.

Jeff is probably the most emotional kid we have. He's just really an emotional person and I think he operates on that.

Jeff was great. It's what we needed (from him).

Our best big guy, certainly, was Jeff Adrien.

Will it hurt us? Sure. I think Jeff has been a factor in every game he has played. So it will hurt us, but hopefully the depth we have will come into play.

Did you ever see Jeff Adrien? I wouldn't want to put Rob Garrison in there. But I think Jeff can handle himself OK.

The game changes when Jeff comes in. When he got a rebound, nobody was going try and grab it away from him.

All of a sudden the game changed when Jeff Adrien got in it. That was something for a freshman to express his emotion the way he did.
