Message: [QUOTE="huskymagic, post: 2078707"] Ollie's apologists need to get a grip. I said it early that 2017-2018 season was judgement day for Ollie and our university moving forward. If Ollie misses the NCAA tournament next year, and we cant lure a Gregg Marshall who is the only candidate I would be looking for then a Tim Jankovich type I'm sure would do just fine at UCONN with the pedigree that UCONN provides. Watching what we have witnessed for the last 3 years only a fool would not be concerned about our program and its future. We are at risk of becoming Georgetown, St. Johns, UNLV, etc. The problem with Ollie is that he is too much of a brother and preacher to players than a disciplinarian and Sargeant with players that you need to be successful. He thinks the "cool guy" personality who can relate to his players approach works, but it never works. I doubt he can change because that's who he is personality wise. PS: We will return to the BEAST if we are ever in the situation to choose between basketball and football. By doing that we will be able to find some of the best coaching minds in the country make no mistake about that. PS: What's the buyout on Ollie's new contract? [/QUOTE]
