STORRS, Conn. -- Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun, who's missed the last seven games with an undisclosed health condition, has returned to his position.
Calhoun returned to his office Thursday morning and has assumed all coaching responsibilities with no restrictions, the university said in a statement. He went on temporary medical leave Jan. 19.
"I am excited to return to the team and my coaching staff," Calhoun said in the statement. "I appreciate the hard work by the staff and team in my absence and am looking forward to being back on the court for practice [Thursday] afternoon and moving forward."
Neither Calhoun nor UConn commented on his medical condition Thursday.
The Huskies were 3-4 under assistant George Blaney, who ran the team in Calhoun's absence. UConn is 14-9, in the bottom half of the Big East standings and will need to string together victories to remain in NCAA tournament contention.
