For those calling for Ollies head

[Matrim55]

God man, this is the thread that got me to ignore stairmaster – I'd totally forgotten about that kid! Funny to look back and see how wrong he was about literally everything.

I wonder if there's a way to track who the most ignored person on the boneyard is. Gotta be between him, freescooter & JSM I'd imagine.

 

[Huskybass]

My point is, UConn and URI have a vastly different hiring pool. The fact that URI ended up hiring someone who is probably out of our league at this point is meaningless - they struck lightning in a bottle.

Out of our league?

Apparently not.

Bro. You claimed Earl Grant could recruit “at an elite level” because he was on staff for four mediocre to terrible classes at Clemson and a four-year span at Wichita State in which they failed to make the tourney once.

You’re without question the last person here who should be calling me out on a poor understanding of the college basketball landscape.

Also, wasn’t this the thread you were hyping up Eric Konkol in? How’d LA Tech look this year?

 

[JMick]

lmao this is great because @Stainmaster just bumped a pal thread the other day

 

[Stainmaster]

Apparently not.

Again, I’m very happy I was wrong.

Well, given that he ignored you this was more or less yelled out into the void.

me too i told you to keep the faith. @superjohn is the truth

No, he wanted me to get banned on the spot for gumming up the thread or some BS. He just isn’t mature enough to handle criticism of his highly suspect analysis.

People have piled on me for my crap takes many times and I’ve never reacted in such a whiny way.

Stairs, you just needed to have more faith in UCONN basketball and that the administration would do the right thing. Some of us did and we are very happy with the direction the program is going in now.

Already working on the “cat lady is a psychic, we’ll be in the NESCAC by 2025” one!

You have to care that was one of the most epic call outs in BY history.

i missed it completely. i don't even know what the whole thing is about

 

[Stainmaster]

Election bet...

So right now he's even with Chief.

Knowing what I did about how AD Dave approached contract negotiations with basketball coaches in the past, it was definitely reasonable to be pessimistic about how the administration would handle it. The fact that he pulled it off had nothing to do with you being optimistic or me being pessimistic.

If you'd read the last couple of pages, you'd know that I'm just as happy as you are -- perhaps more so.

 

[Stainmaster]

Oh hai @calluke, I wonder what brought you back to the BB board.

 

[MattMang23]

The beginning of this thread aged well...

Oh, god, no. I doubt he’s even in driving distance of those two. JSM probably has three different usernames with more ignores.

And you’re completely underrating how much people hate Whaler and Serrano.

But it’d hard to as wrong as he has been on the Ollie stuff.

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

Wait, are you implying 3rd party man's also a welcher? Quite frankly?

 

[tentoes4rings]

For the final time. Stop speculating, Kevin Ollie is going nowhere for the next 2 yrs. I know the administration at UCONN is trying to save money/balance budgets. The governors election is next yr. The UCONN athletic department is hemorrhaging money. David Bennett was brought in to stabilize the finances, so far he fail big time with his first major decision in football. He cannot fire Ollie without approval from the Susan. Susan will not give it because if the GOP wins the governors (likely) in 2018. UCONN will have a bull-eye on its backs in the budget cuts. They will cite waste and the first example will be paying $10 million to replace Ollie. Herst's job might even be in jeopardy if the team and attendance craters after Ollie. They are even talking about shutting down part of UCONN health due to the budget cuts. Kevin Ollie is the best choice for UCONN and Connecticut going forward. Stop your wishful thinking

Great call, lol.

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

Great call, lol.

So @tentoes4rings, was it Whtdmd's "... Kevin Ollie is going nowhere for the next 2 yrs." or he's "... the best choice for UCONN and Connecticut going forward." which prompted a laugh?
