What do you like about Coach Ollie?

My response: I'm a big Calhoun fan. Calhoun loves Ollie. Good enough for me.

Haha I swore I saw shabazz wink at Calhoun after a wild three

He manages the game very well. He leads. I also like the WTF look when the guys screw up, but not menacing or attitudinal. I always hope the camera get's a shot of that look so I can laugh. I like when the guys miss a shot or make a TO they don't look to be yanked or yelled at. Finally most important is he gets the athlete of today.

I love how he runs the team the way he played the point for us back in the 90s. He's a very in-control and composed kind of guy who has the ability to calm people around him and get them on an even keel in tough situations.

I like that not only does he teach the kids about bball but he also teaches life skills. Character, integrity, teamwork and loyalty.

I think KO will be a huge hit with the parents of recruits. Not only will he get them ready for the NBA, if they have the talent, but he also will get them ready for life...becoming men.

I like your post but I like your screen name even more. I also love large buttocks and just cannot lie.

I like how he stacks up with a dozen other coaches you guys may have heard of before when it comes to their winning percentage at their first head coaching job.
Boeheim: .870
Dixon: .861
Ollie: .720 (Five games to go)
Barnes: .670
Donovan: .670
Pitino: .654 (Didn't count 6 games at Hawaii)
Williams: .613
JT3: .592
Crean: .517
Izzo: .500
Coach K: .440
Calipari: .357
Self: .222
