Blaudschun thinks Ollie will look at NBA this off-season

[dennismenace]

I bet JC and KO had some discussions on this. JC has been around the block a few times at least. I'm sure he knew Ollie's potential and what any level of success at Uconn would do to his marketability. Last think JC wants is to have HIS guy bolt before the transition is complete and to see the program he build fall apart. I'm not suggesting that KO is staying for 20+ years, but I do think JC and Ollie have an understanding about commitment to the program and a certain timeframe in mind before Ollie leaves for greener pastures at the next level.

Any level of success that Ollie has at Uconn is going to get his name mentioned for other jobs. Even JC flirted with South Carolina and the Lakers during his tenure.

Calhoun in South Carolina

Really? Why?

Because he's a terrific coach? Nearly 50 games over .500 since the start of the 2013-14 season.

Ollie is not leaving for a few years with his recent recruiting. He will be eager to see what he can do with all of his new toys

In a vastly underrated A10 conference.

Blaudschein really doesn't know KO and his loyalty to UConn like we do. He is building a team for the next few years that has great potential, and it will be totally his team. They are coming because of him, and he is not the type to bolt. End of story.

Didn't know which Miller you were talking about. O.K., I agree with you.
