What's your feelings on this? Was the program blindsided or did anyone see it coming?

It was known about a week ago that he was offered and taking it. We are in an absolute world of **** now.

Agreed. Aaron McKie needs to step up and start leveraging his NBA experience with these young kids and handlers or recruiting could get uglier then it already is. The only upside is this is his chance to show if he has the recruiting chops to be the next head coach.

I wouldn't count on it.

Not going to happen. McKie doesn't have anywhere near the connections and impact Coach Killings had.

UCONN fans are excited about this hire. It really puts a stronghold on New England (especially Massachusetts). It will also be a big help in our Mid-Atlantic recruiting.

And I REALLY like our chances of landing David Beatty now.

Yeah I feel like our schedule will mirror last year's a lot just with the home team being opposite. Remember we request H&Hs.
