If the rumors end up being true here then there's potential downstream impact to UConn here
If he's suggesting that either Kimani or Luke would become the next Villanova head coach I would have mixed feelings about it. I'd hate to lose either one, but that would be a great first head coaching job for either of them.care to elaborate?
So Calhoun is responsible for what Ollie did years later? Hey at least we can say we won a title with a failed coach.Norlander confirmed. Thank god... best thkng to happen to Nova ball since Jay left.
The whole waiting to retire so your hand-picked former-player replacement gets the job is such a stupid move every time. Cocky HOF coaches always think they know best and don't... Calhoun included.
The rumors are they'll target Ryan Odom which opens up the VCU job for Kimanicare to elaborate?
Chris Collins to Nova, NW opens up for Kimani or Luke. Does NW have NIL?If he's suggesting that either Kimani or Luke would become the next Villanova head coach I would have mixed feelings about it. I'd hate to lose either one, but that would be a great first head coaching job for either of them.

I gave him half credit for the national championship, the down years are all on KO though. If you catch Coach Calhoun in a good mood, sometimes he'll say that he has "three, well really four", national championships. He's only half joking about that.So Calhoun is responsible for what Ollie did years later? Hey at least we can say we won a title with a failed coach.
After 2014.By definition, if a coach wins a national championship, he is not a failure.

Got it. That actually makes more sense. No idea regarding. NW's NIL situation.Chris Collins to Nova, NW opens up for Kimani or Luke. Does NW have NIL?
Calhoun wasn't perfect but he earned that right and set up Ollie with a staff, Blaney stayed on in the tourney ban year. It's easy to be a genius in hindsight. Would you have trusted Jeff Hathaway to hire the next coach?Calhoun is responsible for essentially forcing the university to hire a wholly unqualified person who had 0 head coaching experience, resulting in a near death knell for the program. Yes.
It took a coach as transcendent as Hurley, what, 3 or 4 years to get us back in the top-25? That's how badly KO screwed this program top to bottom.

I would say yes. We won that title with Calhoun’s players.So Calhoun is responsible for what Ollie did years later? Hey at least we can say we won a title with a failed coach.
At the hire, many of us were thrilled, and that feeling lasted until early 2015. Right about when his marriage fell apart. 2014 was one of my 6 favorite years.Calhoun is responsible for essentially forcing the university to hire a wholly unqualified person who had 0 head coaching experience, resulting in a near death knell for the program.

I would say Calhoun was in a far position to make that call then you were the 2013 and 2014 results speak for itself. I know this is a hard concept for some people to get but Ollie falling off is on Ollie.I would want exactly 0 single person tobe trusted to hire a head coach. I would never hire a coach to do it especially. Too many blind spots.
Hiring for ANY important job should be a team effort with many stakeholders involved.

It already happened we won a national championship with him and the timing of his firing resulted in Hurley.

Maybe a year too late but the right decision. This hire is critical to turn the ship around
I'm not making a case the facts show that Ollie was the right hire, turned a 2 year plan into a national championship, him falling off after that is on him. He was the right hire but didn't turn into THE GUY.Looking back and saying "well we won a natty so Calhoun was right" isn't going to help your case. We could play what if's all day. Maybe we hire Shaka and win 3 nattys. Maybe we hire some other schlub and never crack the top-100. No one knows.
What we do know is KO was completely unqualified in every way. Plain and simple.
