SIGN OF THINGS TO COME

In the coming weeks, readers of the Bulletin will grow familar with an addition to our Sunday newspaper — a weekly page devoted to college basketball. The page will feature a notebook focusing on Big East and national happenings, a variety of UConn-related information, along with notes focusing on the state's other Division I schools.
To prepare for this I've started contacting coaches from around the Nutmeg State, recently sitting down with new Hartford coach Dan Leibovitz. Among the country's youngest head coaches, Leibovitz got his big break in 1996 by taking a job to work under Temple's John Chaney. Basketball fans might remember seeing Leibovitz, 33, man the Temple sideline at the end of the 2004-05 season when Chaney was under both self-imposed and university suspension.
For more on the rebuilding process at Hartford and what's going on at other state programs, keep an eye out for this new Sunday page, which should make its debut later this month.
