Coach.Not to be that guy but what positions does this roster need for success?
I wrote this on another thread but it bears repeating: the problem starts with leadership. Hey! Hey! Ho! Ho! KO has got to go!I am currently at the game and I cant remember being so upset in the garden.
Dumb foul. He pushed him in the back.A little life from the crowd here now that we cut it to 9, but what was up with that foul on Cobb?
Ok. Not goodDumb foul. He pushed him in the back.
There is a talent gap. This was evident when we lost by 35 to Arkansas and needed OT to beat Columbia and Monmouth at home.
And we have that talent gap because our coach could not make it work with 3 of his freshman and 1 recruit. He allowed the most important part of coaching, relationships, to deteriorate and crumble with players he absolutely needed. Our fate this year, and perhaps his, was sealed by that failure.
He brings nothing to the table.The most damning part is that KO was supposed to excel at relating to his players and getting the most out of them, even better than JC.
It's obvious X's and O's isn't his strong suit, so if he can't get players and recruits to buy in, he really brings nothing to the table.
It's all on Ollie, my god when do the excuses stop. I've never seen so much delusion.
He brings nothing to the table.
last I checked SJ doesn't get paid $3mm+ to post on the boneyardYou are the KO of the BY for now sj, you should know.

Constantly humping my leg isn't going to make Ollie a good coach or make Uconn basketball relevant again. In the words of Ollie, "Do you" though.Have you made your point enough already S**U??? You promised to leave for a while now do us all a favor and do so. You've been like a little baby all night you're as dreadful as the team so take a look in the mirror.
Don't forget we was and they defense."Do me basketball." Cringeworthy.
the last thing I am is "happy." get that idea right out of your headLast I checked he was touting how he'd never be here. And the way you were most of the night, I'd be good with you joining him. We get it, you're so happy they sucked but you don't have to repeat it a thousand times from the in gam hatreds to now you guys are pitiful really you are. This isn't a time to be happy and celebrating your W.

That's it, you care and we don't. You clearly aren't a Giants fan because you thought McAdoo and Reese stunk and you wanted them gone.Last I checked he was touting how he'd never be here.

don't shoot the messengerWhen you stop pounding your chests I will, until then you say it way too much when the chance comes. Sorry perception is simple sometime.
I think KO always wanted to play small ball this year but unfortunately he missed on SW(first time), Waters and the Italian kid and then to had to scramble for what ever was left. I mean KW and DO shouldn't be even ball boys on this team. LOL!We have 5 players that Ollie plays positions 1 to 4. We have 5 players he only plays at center. Kwintin doesnt really play. Wth is that all about? If there was ever a game to play 2 bigs its this one. Why have so many pf and centers on the roster if you are always play small under every circumstance? Makes no sense. Ollie recruits for one type of team and when the ball tips off we have 3 tiny guards and a string bean swingman playing power forward and with Gilbert hurt again we have no perimeter depth other than a raw Polley. Its like he has no idea how to construct a roster for the way he coaches and the peronell he prefers. Positionless basketball my foot.
We have some girth on this team with Diarra, Cobb and DO. The problem is they are too talented.I saw a Cuse team with size that can jump out the building and we have a 6-8 Larrier who isn’t a tad bit athletic and 3 guards under 6-2 and a hobbled Cobb and a undersized forward in Diarra .. Polley isn’t ready he seems out of it and ready to take his ball n go home... we need athletes, we need 6-4 6-6 guards and we need them to play defense !! Turnovers is the name of the game with this team ! Larrier my goodness smh. I’m mad at Adams cus he was so efficient but took himself out the flow of the game early ! My god some of our passses made me wanna put hands on someone .. Second half we did a way better job getting in transition and penetrating the zone, we just take so long to figure it out and get it going..we have to stop recruiting slim Jim’s , I’m hopeful in 19
Have you seen how Akinjo, Matthews, and Wilson are built?I saw a Cuse team with size that can jump out the building and we have a 6-8 Larrier who isn’t a tad bit athletic and 3 guards under 6-2 and a hobbled Cobb and a undersized forward in Diarra ..

Here is the problem with the OP and your support of it. You can bitch all you want once the game is over. But when the game is on, you support the team, period. What you guys are doing is the equivalent of arguing with your fellow soldiers, while in a fox hole, with the enemy pounding you. Better pick up a weapon and fight. If you band together when it counts, you might have a chance to argue afterwards. #NeidermeyerRemember if you are sick, upset, depressed, embarrassed, or angry about what you're seeing, it means you want Ollie to fail or something.
