That will do it.

Trustworthy people are saying that the money is in place, so it’s happening. At the same time, it’ll be entertaining watching you all melt down when it doesn’t happen courtside and they don’t leave him in Orlando.

Where’s Pat Haden when you need him?

 

[CL82]

He won a National Title. You don't fire a championship winning coach. Point blank. End of story.

Shaddup Kobe.

.....I hope people remember my post asking are we SURE we are going to beat SMU...

You've been one of his biggest apologists since this season started, even going so far as to make a charity bet that the team makes the tourney this year. Please save your "I told you so's".

 

[Vancat]

Drain the swamp?

For the millionth time, I’ve been saying a change needs to happen for months.

You were clearly lying when you said you had multiple UConn degrees, because the school would never dream of admitting someone that illiterate and unintelligent.

But how can you keep justifying keeping Ollie after this season? I don't get it.

Ollie apologists? False. Take your trolling elsewhere. Side-note I do have to make that donation.

I backed him all season but watching this game, I say fire Ollie , the players ( transfers, early leavers, fans) can’t watch a coach that the players obviously have no respect for. Benedict earn your pay and bring UConn back to a reputable program. Now it’s only apologists who watch this embarrassement. I’m done and it’s so sad.

 

[8893]

Sorry it ended this way. Godspeed.

It's really a simple argument. Is the program better with:

A) KO + the current returnees and recruits, minus whoever transfers
B) New coach + all new players

We have some nice kids, but none are so irreplaceable that it's worth holding onto a losing coach.

And many of them are thought to be gone if Ollie stays. We may retain more players firing our coach than if we keep him.

Thanks Kevin.

Oz, thank you for your opinion.

 

[len0322]

AD has to have his decision whether to retain or release...share it so we can close this season and move forward

 

[AdamaNation]

Ko should have demanded that Jalen and terry shoot better

You want him, you can have him!

May the road rise to meet you, Kevin.

Wasted talent is the same as no talent. We won't lose everyone if a solid replacement is available. The returnees on this team see the writing on the wall. They don't want to waste another year either.

One last valiant run to end it. Kind of a microcosm of the last 3 or 4 seasons (especially the last 2) as a whole, really.

I truly hope Uconn goes in another direction now and wonder how long it will take to set the gears in motion. How to keep the players between coaches, etc. if that is the direction they go.

 

[TRest]

I will wait for an official announcement, Betting against chief, as it were.

 

[UC313]

Its gonna take me a while to speak his name without a bit of disdain. I appreciate what he's done but not what he did.

 

[AntG168]

Always an excuse

 

[Travelman6]

The "winnable" curse continues. Someone mentioned it in another thread and, without fail, Uconn loses.

STOP IT. Next year, that word should be banned.

 

[Coach J]

It appears to be over.

Don’t visit Vegas in that frame of mind.
