I guess this means that UConn is the new Southeast Arkansas Tech.

The NCAA actually did UConn a favor here - Ollie is suing the University for his full $10 million buyout plus another million in damages (I think), but there's language in the contract voiding it fully if violations are found to occur. Ollie getting hit with a show cause for three years and UConn getting their self-imposed sanctions accepted and otherwise skating is in many ways a best-case scenario (if you're particularly cold-hearted).

Yeah, UConn literally begging the NCAA to give them sanctions to avoid paying Kevin Ollie his full buyout...hilarious! What a trainwreck of an athletic department 03-lmfao

This Hartford Columnist and former UCONN Beat Writer wants UCONN to still pay Ollie $1-$2 Million to make this case "go away" and not linger for years to come.

The NCAA hammered Kevin Ollie; now UConn should settle with him and move on to bright future

That's probably the right move. He's a program/NBA alum, well-liked by his general generation of program alums, won a national title as a coach, and is the most successful coach in AAC history. Find a number that lets him pay his lawyers and walk away with a little cash to keep him stable while he finds an NBA job and let everyone move on.

Any cred you had is gone. Stupid post dude.

National Title, three straight AAC Championship games, one AAC Championship and being the last AAC team standing during Louisville's vacated season when they won the AAC tournament, more NCAA tournament wins than any two other AAC coaches combined..... It's a low bar, but...

Fluke with Calhoun's players. His last 2 seasons were back to back losing seasons. You had to go back to 1987 for that for UConn. What was his W/L record in conference. 2 NCAA tourneys in 6 years.

SMU's been to 2 NCAA tourneys in 6 years, Houston's been to 2 NCAA tourneys in 6 years, Memphis has been to 1 in 6 years,
Temple's been to 2, UCF 1, Tulsa(for all the crap that school takes) is right there with 2, Wichita's only been around two seasons, Cincinnati's never been out of the first weekend..... A flukey National Title, a separate conference title, and a couple other conference championship appearances gets you right up there.

Like I said, it's a low bar, but the two most successful coaches in the short history of the AAC are clearly Ollie and Cronin in some order, and it basically comes down to whether you value regular first-weekend appearances or a National Title more.

Again what is Ollie's W/L record in conference and overall. All you are doing is trying to pimp his first season. One more time post his W/L record vs. other AAC coaches.
You won't do that because it won't be pretty. Keep living in 2014.

I mean....throw out the summation of another coach's tenure in the AAC if you disagree with me. Like I said above, Cronin's the only other coach with an argument and it comes down to what you value - they're tied for most CCG appearances, Ollie has way more NCAA tournament wins and a Natty, Cronin's clearly had the better regular seasons. Nobody else is in the conversation.

UConn will be able to get his case thrown out of court on this one and get out from underneath his contract. Maybe the university can apply that money to the FB deficit and stay in the AAC. 04-jawdrop 04-jawdrop 04-jawdrop 03-nutkick 03-nutkick 03-nutkick 03-cloud9 03-cloud9 03-cloud9 03-drunk 03-drunk 03-drunk 03-lmfao 03-lmfao 03-lmfao 03-lmfao 05-stirthepot 05-stirthepot 05-stirthepot 04-cheers

Whatever UConn fans stick around this forum we are going to hear nothing but how the AAC was bad for UConn BBall blah blah blah, while Memphis notched the #1 recruiting class in the country, 7 deep UK like class.

The AAC's geography is actually pretty good for Memphis, and Penny was hired specifically because of his connections to a number of upcoming prep players and their friends. The AAC being a bad fit for UConn doesn't inherently mean nobody should be in the conference.

I don't disagree with you. I just wish UConn had figured this out when the C7 split, and left with them.

You don't vacate the losses.

#FakeNews. They've decided to vacate the entire seasons.

They're also vacating the last 3 seasons of football. 03-lmfao

Now take our last 3...please.

You and me both. They'd have had the votes to disband and reform the conference from scratch instead of seeing the AAC created, but back then it looked like another significant round of expansion was imminent.

Find a number that lets him pay his lawyers and walk away with a little cash to keep him stable while he finds an NBA job and let everyone move on.

Any cred you had is gone. Stupid post dude.

National Title, three straight AAC Championship games, one AAC Championship and being the last AAC team standing during Louisville's vacated season when they won the AAC tournament, more NCAA tournament wins than any two other AAC coaches combined..... It's a low bar, but...

You failed to mention he got fired and is currently unemployed because no one wants him. nice troll job but he just sucks.

That's probably the right move. He's a program/NBA alum, well-liked by his general generation of program alums, won a national title as a coach, and is the most successful coach in AAC history. Find a number that lets him pay his lawyers and walk away with a little cash to keep him stable while he finds an NBA job and let everyone move on.

Like I said, it's a very low bar.

I would bet you still will pay a little to KO just not the full amount. When you made the decision to let KO go, was all NCAA sanction known? His lawyer will get him some $$.

I seem to recall him being fired for cause.
