Message: [QUOTE="06029, post: 2618468, member: 1548"] Wrong thread to ask you to defend your opinion but I was/am not a fan of the hire. When Calhoun retired Uconn was a top 10 job. Name coaches from power conferences would have been honored to be considered. Today it is maybe a top 75 job. Top coaches in secondary coaches will have better options. This is a hard sell to a new coach and I hope Benedict has the ability and vision to sell it. I hope he is not handcuffed by finances and paying on multiple years of buyouts. I hope he has a basketball consigliere to advise him. This hire is huge and there is no sure fire 100% turnaround coach guaranteed to be hired. [/QUOTE]
