Way-back Playback: John Chaney threatens to kill John Calipari

Twenty-one years ago there wasn't such a thing as viral video. However, following a University of Massachusetts victory over Temple on Feb. 13, 1994, there was an early entrant to the genre. 

Then-UMass coach John Calipari was holding his postgame press conference when Temple coach John Chaney entered the room. 

Hall of Fame coach Chaney was flustered about something Calipari had allegedly told referees earlier, and after the youthful-looking Calipari responded with virtually nothing to provoke such a response, Chaney went after him.

Watch for a shirtless future NBA star Eddie Jones trying to figure out what's going on.
