My buddy and I were both talking about injuries and how Ollie might still be our coach if the team was healthy the last two years.
We also think the team should have been better even with the injuries, so Ollie didn't adjust well.
Then he said Calhoun always coached better through injuries. So we were trying to come up with an example, and we couldn't.
This is not intended to be a thread about Ollie, he's gone and that's that. But did we ever have such significant season ending injuries before? I'm not talking about something like AJ getting hurt in the tournament. Have we ever lost a star player for the season in the Calhoun era?
I can't think of any, but I'm probably missing someone.
