UConn Men’s Basketball Coach vs. “Activist/Journalist.” (genghis)

In sporting news, we get the following report from WTNH (Hartford, Conn.) about a little post-game tussle between Univ. of Connecticut Men’s basketball coach Jim Calhoun and testosterone-starved “feelance journalist” Ken Kreyeske, apparently working for “The Hartford News,” which I guess is a new start-up blog or something. (video of the smackdown available at the link)

Mr. Kreyeske was apparently concerned/shocked/protesting about the coach’s “exhorbitant” salary and how much it was costing Uconn. Coach tried his best to school this blithering idiot on economics, though it’s unclear if the message took.

But it’s not the first time Mr. Kreyeske has been in the news for being a dickhead journalist.

: “The man asking the questions which got the Hall of Fame Coach fired-up, has made headlines in the past. “

“The 35-year-old Kreyeske was arrested on a breach of peace charge in January 2007 after trying to take a picture of Governor Rell during her inaugural parade. “

“The arrest report said that Kreyeske was recognized from a watch list as a potential danger to the Governor.”

“The charges ended up being dropped.”

Follow-up interview below the fold.

Later in the evening, AoSHQ correspondents were able to reach him at his home, a modest walk-up unit that he shares with his mother and a number of cats. He still seemed to be upset by the encounter earlier with Coach Calhoun. During the brief interview he had this to say:

” Look, I was bullied by these jocks back in junior high and I’m just not going to take it any more! I’m a professional journalist now, and I want some respect!”

When asked what his future plans were regarding this incident, he replied: “Well, first I’m going to spread the news of this outrage to all my friends at Facebook and on CraigsList. That’ll show these fuckers! It’s like wringing out a towel…don’t you understand? Towel? Wringing? Wetness equals emotion? I didn’t figure you would. Probably after that, I’ll go fall asleep listening to some Coldplay.”

8 Back in the 80's I was in Iowa and similar comments were being made about Hayden Fry, their highest paid state employee. To the sissies in Iowa City, just like this whiner, it just wasn't fair

Well, at least the coach isn't a CEO, the most evilist people on earth.

11 When interviewed by an AoSHQ reporter Mr. Kreyeske expressed his great admiration for former NBC sportcaster, Keith Olbermann.  "I really admire Keef," Kreyeske gushed.  "He's shows young sports journalists like me how far somebody can go by being an obnoxious, know-nothing loudmouth.  I'm trying to be as big an asshole as Keef so I can stop working for a pissy little rag like the Hartford News and get a job in a big-time, ass-kicking news organization like the Daily Kos, Huffington Post, the National Enquirer, or the New York Times."

12 School athletics are a racket, but coaches who can recruit the players that draw the fans and get the teams to the tournament or bowl game consistently make money for the schools.  Is that unfair?  People who can do that at the Jim Calhoun level are rare.

That's marketing, and it's a good deal for the school.  If you doubt me, ponder Syracuse.  The attraction here isn't the weather, or the football team.  We have some world class colleges, and some that are not exceptional.  Basketball is a big deal and we have consistently had good teams since Boeheim started coaching.  I'll guess that some percentage of the student body views basketball as a factor in their decision to come here.  At 25 to 30 thousand per student, per year, it doesn't take all that many additional students to justify the "obscene" pay.

Whether this ought to be a function of higher education is an entirely different question. 

Fair would be me being able to sing, and play basketball, and having perfect vision, and being younger and better looking and having Bill Gates' money.  I'm over it, thanks to a few cups of valu-rite vodka and some hobo blood or a reasonable facsimile.

That's the point, isn't it?  Peckerheads like this guy believe that sports are evil since they never got picked in school.  And any hot chick preferred  to date an athlete (even the scrub who sat on the bench in perpetuity) over this nimrod.  As a result, he has a (deserved) inferiority complex.  His friends are all losers like him.  His only hope for glory is to be as obnxious as possible and hope he gets arrested and gets his name in the paper.

14 This guy goes to my school (UCONN Law) or at least has done so in the past.

He specialized in goggle-eyed rants about things totally unrelated to the subject at hand, with lefty professors smiling benignly while he ate up class time. I can still recall him going on and on about the career martyrdom of academic freedom fighter Ward Churchill--who "dared to question our role in the 9/11 attacks"--while students browsed Facebook or looked at their watches.

18 I love the coach's response.

And I don't understand why college tuition is now such a hot topic with liberals. It's been expensive for awhile. Why don't they ask their beloved liberal academics to take a pay cut? Why don't they demand that the profs writing text books take a cut in royalties to lower the cost of books?

Nah. The coach has to take a pay cut.

19 Kreyeske is a local douche-nozzle who would never confront corrupt Kris Dodd or Hartford's first criminal, Fast Eddie Perez.

Nice work "activist," if you can get it.

What's activist work pay these days anyway? Pure speculation here, but the "activist" sounds like another trust-fund radical.

Churned out of central casting as some kind of change-agent, railing against the "system."

Don't bet on the activist upsetting any sacred cows in the paradigm of his "system" regardless of how corrupt or inept.

This leftist activist does what he's supposed to: Attack achievers and the fruits of their achievement.

Niiice. Sounds like a crackpot.

21 I guarantee you Calhoun makes more than $12m for Uconn- that is probably just the directly traceable amount. 

Mark Few of Gonzaga has done more for the school than perhaps any other "employee" over the last 14 years, 10 as head coach.  It would be a Masters Thesis in business to document all of the positive financial contributions, not only to the school (enrollment has skyrocketed as a result of the postive marketing), but to area businesses (sports bars, restaurants, pre/post function gathering spots, hotels, transportation, clothing ...) that cater to the mania.

This is good business, especially if you are a private college receiving little public financing.  And it's good business if you are a state school with shrinking budgets and public pressure to cut spending.

Ridiculous abuses do occur in college sports. (Barbara Hedges/Rick Neuheisel of UW ) But those programs blessed enough to have rare talent in the form of a coach like Calhoun or Few or Izzo or Patino or K..... are an excellent return on investment.  Those coaches deserve every penny they make. 

And Ken Kreyeske is nothing more than a jealous whining pissant, and a dangerous voyeur to boot.

This discussion of coach salaries comes up periodically. In the sixties at Tennessee the complaints came from the faculty.

If an English professor can get 100,000 people to come to a stadium and watch his students do English, then he should get a one million dollar salary also.

24 It goes without saying, but Rell is a Republican (I hadn't been paying much attention to New England politics lately).  These douchebag "journalists" never display their douchebagginess around Dems.  If they did , I wouldn't mind so much.

Posted by: AmishDude at February 22, 2009 11:03 AM (i01iV)

25 Oh yeah, and I forgot to mention the amount of money these coaches like Mark Few generate for non-profits via events and lending their names and images.

The Few's have generated over $2Million for Coaches v. Cancer in this area.

So screw you Kreyeske.  you are one small little man.

26 U.S. journalism started going to the commies in the 30s with Walter Durrante and they have never looked back. A free press can be a good thing but not when it is an arm of the liberal/commie side of government. We only have an opposition press here when the Republicans are in power.

28 Few most likely generates more revenue for UConn than UConn spends on his salary.
Kreyeske does not understand that talented people are actually worth the money paid them. Kreyeske will never understand because he has not talent.

29 ha!

Check out Paula Abdul on the Home Shopping Network! She's completely fucked up. It's hilarious. She just said that her inspiration for designing a particularly long necklace was a noose, for some guy she hated. Then she tied the necklace around her neck like a scarf. The hostess is oohing and aaahing like nothing's wrong.

Priceless.

30 I went to a private liberal arts undergrad that was more expensive than any of these state school, and believe me it had nothing to do with our "athletic" department. What I'm getting at is it's not the fault of these coaches that school is so damn expensive. It's called a market place, that's what people are willing to pay. Good on Coach Calhoun for not pussyfooting around with that bitch.

Posted by: Alex at February 22, 2009 11:23 AM (sAP8F)

31 Oh, and this Kreyeske guy was not arrested for just trying to take a picture of the Governor. He walked right out into the parade to approach her directly. Well, naturally he's going to be perceived as a threat.

Some radio lefties were trying to make it out to be evidence of a big evil Republican plot to stifle 'free speech.' As if the Governor's bodyguards are supposed to just sit there and wait for the guy to get really close to her.

Typical mentally unbalanced shit-stirrer.

33 I am unsure of who pays every penny of Calhoun's salary, but a lot of times, a good portion of "revenue generating sports" (football and basketball)coaches' paychecks, especially at state schools, comes from booster and alumni clubs that pool their money.

Posted by: eddiebear at February 22, 2009 11:34 AM (6x1+Q)

Wait. I thought the liberal meme was that the big 2 tv sports, football and men's basketball, should pay their fair share (i.e., provide funding via Title IX for sportsnobodygivesashitabout like gymnastics). Schools are thereby encouraged to invest in top coaching talent for these 2 sports - for the children.

Can't these fucking people keep their stories straight?

35 To the sissies in Iowa City, just like this whiner, it just wasn't fair

They haven't changed.  OTOH, Hayden Fry didn't suck complete ass as a coach, nor did he cover up players' rapes, nor did he let his kids scam taxpayers...

Posted by: HeatherRadish at February 22, 2009 11:55 AM (x/bMF)

36 The $12 million a year the basketball program directly contributes to the school understates it's total contribution in another way.  Having a kick-hiney team also makes it much easier to hit up alumni for money.  I read a study a few years back correlating school's fundraising with the quality of their Football and Basketball teams.  Having a top team not only meant significant increases in fundraising in the following year, but also for quite a few years to come. 

But I have to go wipe off my monitor now - I was drinking coffee while watching the video.  I'd use my shammy made from a hobo's hide, but I can't find it.

Bingo. I'm sure that UConn pays him a very nice salary, but that portion is probably on the order of $100K or so, which is comparable for top-notch faculty with similar number of years with the university. The rest come from the boosters/alumni, as well as product endorsements and radio/TV shows.

In addition to the direct revenue, the sports program can keep the alumni in touch, and may convince them to write a check to the university.

38 South Carolina pays Steve Spurier 1.75 million a year for a losing team (as of 2006). This is just like the CEOs of those companies that lose millions while the CEO collects bonuses. And that doesn’t include his “outside” income from the others.

Posted by: Vic at February 22, 2009 12:59 PM (f6os6)

39 Calhoun is a scumbag, and you aren't going to find much that'll disagree other than the ardent UConn fan.  That being said, Calhoun, and his take home salary have done far more to enhance the school's image along with increasing student profile.  Between him and Geno, if they didn't put the school on the map the state probably would never have funded the institution as they have.  There are whole sectors of those who should know better who don't see this... these are the same twits who pissed off when football built two $50 million dollar facilities with private donor money.

Lets remember, when its all said and done... the UConn athletic department makes money even on its fledgling football program.  People like Kreyeske don't get much beyond their indoctrinaire social-righteousness playbook upbringing.  They are noble but incredibly shallow ideals.  His salary statements could probably fly at 98% of all NCAA DI schools but not at UConn because UConn is in the black on athletics.
