More changes?

I think staff changes are more likely, would be surprised to see more player movement. Everyone else seems pretty bought in... possibly Jackson but he got some real good time by the end of the season
Someone on other site hinted that one of our talented guards might go and couple coaches. Who knows if that's true or not
It'd be a great idea for our 5th year coach to fire the guy who was hired twice by JC and has more experience than the rest of the staff combined
Someone said Raphael Chillious the ace recruiter from Washington will replace miller. If so awesome and makes sense of the Blake Harris interest suddenly
More hanging KO's embarrassing 2 seasons around an assistants neck and kicking him overboard.
Everyone seems excited to replace the guy who isn't the problem.
Player transferring, Hobbs leaving for Rutgers, pretty obvious why now, he gtfo before KO started the save his skin campaign. If I were Ricky or Kevin I'd be reaching for a parachute

That's like saying Uconn doesn't win the last 2 NC if not for Miller scouting for the championship game
Results needed..... he $hi@ the bed with recruiting local talent a la Bruce brown types and big men did not improve as much as needed!
Also who said Killings was a big time recruiter lol. He was brought in for the philly DMV area since he coached down there and has relationships.
We need a dominant national recruiter also a la what UW has had ofcourse Zona etc...

So basically KO is a pos who talks loyalty and stabs his crew in the back because he can't take responsibility for the fact he can't get kids to buy into HIS system, he can't even keep kids IN his system.
Confidence in this guy is nonexistent. On the clock

Panic mode and what's going on is so predictable....saw this coming a mile away during and with the way the season was going, we even discussed it but nobody wanted to hear it. Remember big man coach discussions even last summer ? When someone's $3.5 mil job is on the line changes get made, warranted or not.
Just see Uconn FB...during both the PP and Diaco regimes...first it's the OC's and staff shake up.... then if that doesn't work >>>>> just hasn't been a normal mode for Uconn hoops because of Calhoun's stability and then his smooth handoff to KO ....but we shall see how things shake out...

Wait Anderson I ask this genuinely, but I always thought you were a KO supporter? What do you know of regarding what went on behind the scenes for you to all of a sudden call him a "pos"?
He's a subpar coach who has much growth to go through and he ran on character and loyalty, he had me fooled completely.
I'm literally watching him figuratively throw everyone under the bus.
I know despite what Ozzie is trying to say about lazyness Miller LIVED on campus and worked kids out while KO was out clubbing.
What I know for sure is KO drove off a staff selected by a hof coach so now he owns it. Win this crappy conference and the tournament or take this disloyal show on the road.
When I was at Battle of Atlantis in 2012 I saw Miller at breakfast one morning with George Blaney- it was just he and Blaney. I overheard parts of their conversation and they were talking hoops. Later on I noticed that Miller lingered at the breakfast table for a long while looking at his laptop and I assume he was doing work, he sure wasn't viewing porn because it was a public space and anyone could see him. Meanwhile it was sunny and 82 degrees outside and when I left for the beach Miller was still sitting at a table working on his laptop.
Let me ask you a question.
If Miller was getting lazy why did Hobbs bail for Rutgers?
So now that Miller is gone who will do the halftime sideline interviews on TV games? Miller was always the guy dispatcher for these duties.
Lol you are officially on shrooms!! Lived on campus while the HC was out clubbing. Yea ok... you know nothing and like most on here just spew BS!
No one drove anyone off loser.... he is a good dude solid. I really like him as a person but that only gets you so far.... this is a business... first and foremost! Results needed and if KO doesn't win enough the next couple years... Guess what he will have to walk the plank too!!
Stop being so dumb and sensitive ok Felicia!!

Hulk Hogan had every right to sue when his sex tape was made public. As I recall a jury returned a huge verdict in his favor. Would you like it if someone stole one of your sex tapes and passed it around the internet? (not that anyone should be taping their own or other sexual activities LOL)
He wouldn't have gotten more money to take the lazy Glen Miller's job considering he was clearly not doing it?
Lol not even close. You can't compare B1G money to what he was getting here!
So the best career path is not to be KO's assistant expecting success so he can qualify for a hc job the best path is to join Rutgers for a complete rebuild of the program for the extra scratch
That's called a parachute. Saw an emergency and broke the glass. I don't blame him.
Pikiell is a uconn guy and reached out to a fellow uconn guy who both knew each other and offered him a raise and promotion.
What's there not to understand about that
You mean "facts" like saying GM got lazy?
You're a mouthpiece. Your boy is a fool who can't accept responsibility for his failure & got the loyalty of a stray dog
On the clock
I gotta say I don't like these assistant coach firings. How many asssitant coaches did Calhoun have fired? (apart from Clyde Vaughn who unfortunately fired himself by giving $10 to an undercover cop for a blow job). ......... I don't buy that Glenn Miller was lazy. That's just throwing him under the bus and creating scapegoats for failure. You can't put last season all on Travis Ilian and Glenn Miller. They were both on staff when the team won it all in 2014.
IF GM isn't doing his job Hobbs is getting his promotion at Uconn unless it's a situation he wants no part of.
There is nothing to not understand.
KH out, Travis gone, GM gone, Steve gone and apparently the 25 total years of coaching experience we've got left are trying to talk VJ off a ledge as his dad is tweeting about needing to surround oneself with people who believe in you.
It's a shitshow that's very difficult to not understand
GM is a bookworm who got an Ivy League school to average 80ppg and he just got fired from a team that can't score and the head coaches pal is saying he got lazy.
Crazy
I don't understand the Vance Jackson thing. The guy got more minutes than he would have if Larrier had not been hurt. He played like a freshman, but got better and had some good games in the latter half of the season. Maybe he sees the writing on the wall that when Larrier comes back he will lose minutes but Larrier might actually be played at the 4 a lot. So I don't know why VJ is on the ledge so to speak. He could be a good player, every team can use a kid who shoots like that regardless of his athletic limitations.
