Message: [QUOTE="Connecticut13, post: 4296464, member: 2146"] The comment I replied to said that we wouldn't have won the 2014 championship without Ollie. I stand by my response. It could be true, but I don't know it to be the case. It was a special group of kids -- they were not only talented, but they had a unique toughness and desire to win. What I do know is that the team doesn't win the championship without Napier. They don't win without Boatright. They don't win without Daniels. Ultimately, though - the point is this -- Kevin Ollie obviously did a much better job when he first started in 2013 and 2014. There was clearly a descent downhill. But that descent (which I still believe was more due to lack of effort than lack of ability) forever tarnished what he accomplished. He left us in such an awful place that I can't remember him for anything else but that. [/QUOTE]
