It may be true that we didn't need to win that game but it is also true that we went into the AAC tournament on the bubble. If games around the nation broke differently, and we didn't win the AAC tournament, we could have been out. Going into the conference tournanent, this conference especially, on the bubble, is pretty mediocre by UConn standards. In isolation, not a big deal. Sandwiched between two flat out bad seasons makes it a big deal. If we get another bad, or even mediocre, season next year, alarms will be screaming and rightfully so. No more excuses next year. If it is like this year, or even like 2014/2015, I would lean toward making a coaching change. If it is like 2015/2016, there will be a very heated debate but he probably gets one more chance. Has anyone considered the possibility that KO may just not be right emotionally after the divorce? A change might actually be good for him. A fresh start in a new place could get him back on track. And has anyone considered that his best place might not be as a head coach in college? He might be a better fit for an assistant or head coaching position in the NBA. [/QUOTE]
