Unofficial Interim Head Coach?

[UCFan1513]

Kind of a logistical question here... with Ollie fired, who is in charge of communicating with the team/dealing with players? Is it someone from the AD’s office? One of the assistants? Say a player wants to workout with a coach (not sure if that’s a violation) who may handle that sort of thing during the time being?

 

[HuskyBoi]

I bet it's Onuorah, he somehow played for Ollie so much that he most likely is secretly an assistant coach this entire time

If you want to be technical, Ollie is technically suspended with pay pending the outcome of the disciplinary hearing within 15 days.

If you want to be technical, Ollie is technically suspended with pay pending the outcome of the disciplinary hearing within 15 days.

Which technically means he can't coach or have contact with the team. This is fun.

 

[ZachCT12]

Probably Chillious most likely

 

[Hurleyman216]

My vote would be for Chief...we need to continue the Blaze strategy that’s been working so well

 

[gtcam]

If coaching staff is terminated/suspended, AD department through the captains and sometimes trainer (if the staff has been terminated) but it appears the staff is still there so my guess it's Kitch

 

[RayIsTheGOAT]

I hope Chillious is still here next season. Unlikely though, I suppose.

 

[kobe]

often times its the AD

 

[SubbaBub]

If the staff isn't out looking for work then they deserve to be fired.

Why? Serious question.

Why? Serious question.

Can’t speak for the poster. But me personally I still want to see what chillious can do on the recruiting trail

I guess. Unimpressive so far, but he really hasn't had a chance.

So is it unimpressive or has he not had a chance?

 

[uconnphil2016]

Chief.

 

[methodology]

I heard bunkey took a private helicopter that landed on campus this weekend and will be taking the reigns. He has guaranteed to fix recruiting asap. Blaze in full effect

 

[CL82]

Both. He hasn't produced results but the odds were stacked against him. I'd feel better if he brought some kids with him.

Susan.

 

[Guapo]

Geno.

 

[Penfield]

It's Chill. Dark horse head coach candidate? probably not

Associate head coach Raphael Chillious will serve as #UConn's interim coach until further notice.

 

[RayIsTheGOAT]

Why? Serious question.

I'm just going based on the fact that usually when a head coach is fired, the new one brings in his own staff.
Wouldn't rule out Chillious coming back, but wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't here next year.

Someone reads the Boneyard.

 

[Penfield]

Obviously Chillious will be replaced by Tom Moore.

Honestly if the kids like Chillious and it could keep a couple from transferring/help with 2019 recruiting it's not the worst idea to give him another one year trial run
