Calhoun to miss at least three more games

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/15/2012 - Storrs, CT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - University of Connecticut men's head basketball coach Jim Calhoun will miss at least three more games as he receives treatment for spinal stenosis, the school announced Wednesday.

Calhoun was already absent for conference games against Seton Hall, Louisville and Syracuse. He will now miss matchups Wednesday against DePaul, Saturday against Marquette and Monday at Villanova.

"I am happy that we seem to have located the problem and I am currently moving forward with treatment," Calhoun said. "We have to give that treatment time to see whether or not it is effective. "I'm hoping by the middle of next week, we will have a much clearer picture of where we are and when I can look forward to getting back to doing what I do."

UConn associate head coach George Blaney, who has taken Calhoun's place on the sideline since he began his leave of absence February 3, will continue in that capacity.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
