Calhoun also left UConn on probation and banned from the tournament in Ollie's first year.
I get that UConn doesn't have much consistent success prior to or after Calhoun, but there's literally only 4 programs that have had 3 coaches win at least 1 title. UNC, Kentucky, Kansas, and UConn.
I also think Hurley will be fine at UConn. He's further away from the mess Calhoun/Ollie left him with and they're back in the Big East, which should stabilize them for recruiting purposes as opposed to being in the American.
