Dumbest question ever. We're a year removed from an NCAA championship, and you want to fire the guy? What do you think about Boeheim?:confused:

Seriously......:mad:

You weren't asking me but I'm happy to chime in. I think Boeheim is a coward and the biggest sleaze and bag in the history of college sports :)

Hey, I can remember when people complained about Calhoun. So, I guess Ollie doesn't get a free pass.
What amazes me is that a winning season, having every single game on television and an invite to the NIT is somehow viewed as a disaster.
 
, I don't know if I can deal with 6 more months of these off-season posts. Holy !
 
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...

We were long overdue for one of these abominations...

I think that the question itself is too brief to answer accurately. If the team is fully healthy and we miss the tourney I wouldn't be against him being fired, or at least the school making a statement to him that his ass is on the line. If we suffer 1 major injury, I will no longer feel like the team is a tournament lock, so missing it wouldn't mean that much about Ollie's skills as a coach

Do you think that the team, as currently constructed, is a "lock" for the tournament?

In our conference, yeah, maybe lock isn't the right word, but if healthy, I think the talent is definitely there for the team to win most of the games in the AAC and make the tournament as like a 5-9

You'd have a hard time convincing me that next year's team will have more talent than this year's team, assuming no further additions, and this year's team was a ways from being a tournament team.
 
Stop. I think Kevin Ollie will still be coaching UConn in the year 2040. He'll become a better recruiter and evolve into a better coach over time.

Well maybe I would have a hard time, but I never once said a word about next year's team compared to this year's team, so thanks for inferring that and telling me I'm wrong.. Theres so much of that on this board it's maddening.

This year's team could have won 5 more games very easily. Just a few stupid mistakes per game away from being a bubble team. Not sure if you watched the tourney, but in the early rounds there were a lot of awful looking shots and bad turnovers like we've been watching all year. No clue why you think this year's team was completely untalented just because they lost a lot of games and had a disappointing year. The ball bounces a different way and a lot of those losses are wins. I think the team did the opposite the year before, and won or almost won a lot of games they didn't deserve to win

I swear to god, the whining on this site is unbearable. I'm not apologizing for interpreting your stupid thoughts in a perfectly reasonable way. You think next year's team should be a tournament lock, I'm sorry, that's not supported by the facts.
 
Next off season is critical to KO as far as recruiting. If he misses bad next year and he doesn't bring in any impact players with DHAM probably leaving then it could mean the end of his reign as coach. I'm sure they will give him at least 3 bad years to prove himself but I don't think we can afford 4 years of missing the tourney with the precarious position we are in due to our conference affiliation. I hope KO can do it and I like many feel he needs to make a staff change to accomplish this.
