Message: [QUOTE="auggie22, post: 2577906, member: 551"] Put me in the fire Ollie / move to big east camp. Having said that, this article does not address the obvious problem which is this: uconn looks and performs as one of the worst 100 teams in division 1a. This is almost impossible with the recruiting advantages that we still have, unless we have one of the worst coaching staffs in D1. So while the themes rehashed in this article are interesting, the level of our suckage is not nearly explained in this article. With our advantages we should be running a train on the AAC let alone The Ivy conference. And yet we are ( and look the part of ) one of the worst D1 teams for two years in a row. I hate that it is true. But there is no avoiding the fact that right now ( and frankly, for several years ) Ollie has shown himself to be a horrendous college coach, fireable by even the most lowly teams, let alone a top ten program of all time. You can argue we are no longer a top 10 program, but there is no doubt we are currently paying him as one. And there is no doubt that we are not a Wagner or so ranked program - even with our current conference affiliation - such that it is baffling that we are still even discussing this. Ollie is a terrible head coach. Terrible. If let go by us, I am not sure he would get a P7 job offer, at any price, let alone the 3m he is making. He is that bad. Only WE would be arguing otherwise. Apologies that my top has blown here. Just walked out of a bar to type this response. [/QUOTE]
