Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 3930559, member: 1023"] I’d say Guthridge was closer to Blaney than KO. Long time top assistant and friend. He took over for a short stint. BTW, if KO had his record he would still be the UConn head coach. 3 years 2 Final Fours. When Dean retired at the last minute he was given the job. Retired after 3 years. I always viewed it as a reward for service. Plus they were interested in landing Roy but he wasn’t available that late in the cycle. They actually tried to get Roy when Guthridge retired, but he said no. [/QUOTE]
