A few years ago Ollie's wife divorced him. The Ollie's were a lovely family with two kids....perfect example. There may be no connection; but he has not been the same guy since.
His recruiting classes have been top-ten-type. But last year three of his top recruits left the program in their second year. Transfers are common, of course. But to lose three guys at once just one year after winning a national championship surely means the guys were not happy at UConn. And the team has suffered an amazing level of injuries over the last two years...such that the quality of training has been questioned.
Whatever, the last two teams have been mediocre to put the best spin on it. A replacement must be named fast. Already the top HS recruit to come in next year has withdrawn his commitment....not 24 hours after the announcement.
Tough time ahead for UConn. Jim Calhoun is assisting the AD in a consulting capacity and has even been mentioned as coach...he's 76. Nuts!
