They will get a good replacement - no worries

Announced on the 15th - today is the 19th. How in the blaze did this slip by you? I’m concerned! What are you being paid for?

 

[Huskyforlife]

Travis?

Great pivot.

Apparently this has been out there for the past four days:

Very odd that it didn't get a mention locally.

Our "beat writers" are focused on baseball

Carlos Daniel has been hired by the Denver nuggets as an assistant S&C coach

 

[Chief00]

Short stint with us. That stinks. Better paying gig or issue at school?

Six months from his hire date, these things happen. I think we will find a very good replacement. I wish Carlos well.

 

[RichZ]

I find this disturbing. Very. Disturbing.
Everything we knew said he was the man for the job, and an integral part of the rebirth we have al been counting on.
No announcement of his departure here, just of his new position from a Nuggy source.
Was he shown the door for some as yet unknown transgression?
Or did he flee the scene in the middle of the night?
If the latter, was he running from, or running toward?
Disturbing.

Hard to turn down the NBA. Sucks big time since players got close to him and the routine he got them in. Now have to break in a new strength coach so close to the season blows.

Who is good that will take a job this close to the season?

Who knows. There could be a plausible, non nefarious explanation. He is a local guy. Maybe there is some reason he needed to head home.

 

[Wordbomar]

No way the Nuggets asst. position is better than the head for UConn MBB. Something had to of happened

 

[Wordbomar]

Found this, someone tweeted at Dom asking about it and he said this.

 

[CTMike]

It’s obvious, guys. Bunkey is the new S&C coach.

 

[David 76]

Strange, but probably not a conspiracy.

I hear Carlos wore a ton of Rashan Michel suits...

NO<SMU<UConn<Den assistant

Weird career trajectory.

 

[Horatio]

He worked in the NBA a couple of times before and probably prefers working with the Pros more. Probably more money and extras. Hopefully it's that simple.

 

[UCDaveD]

Screw him then.

 

[upstater]

No problem with him leaving.

Big problem with the timing.

This sort of thing just isn't done normally.

He got offered a job likely paying a lot more money. Thats it...

 

[Fishy]

He's the strength and conditioning coach.

Who cares? They're a dime a dozen.

We'll get another one.

I mean we had a recruit "pushed over the edge" to commit specifically because of him. Hopefully we make a good replacement hire, but it's clear he was at least some small factor in our recent recruiting success (and certainly strategy). It's disappointing to not be able to build on that success.

 

[Robertelamin]

Thanks for the memories?
