UConn's Kevin Ollie showing he can win recruiting battles

[David 76]

Eh, let's not overlook this past fall and winter. We lost every major recruiting battle at a time when the team was also performing badly. There was some major hand-wringing on this board.

Yeah, but don't you feel he learned something? I'm happy. And I see thing getting better.

Eh, let's not overlook this past fall and winter. We lost every major recruiting battle at a time when the team was also performing badly. There was some major hand-wringing on this board. However, since April, KO has been absolutely killing it -- first with the transfers and then with the 2016 guys. The future was looking bleak only 6 months ago, but is looking much, much brighter now.

We lost most of those guys before the season even started, when our most recent game was 60-54. Just Stone really came later.
