Don't see why it would. Different positions, different skillsets. RT @Andrew_Hartwell: if he went to AZ would that lead Aaron Gordon away?

Jim Calhoun just wrapped up his speech. Did not shed a tear. Not much of a surprise. Too stubborn to let go.

UConn AD Warde Manuel speaks glowingly about Kevin Ollie. Introduces him as next head coach. Then why give him only a 1-year deal????

Kevin Ollie is an impressive individual. Hitting a home run right now on the podium.

Kevin Ollie getting choked up right now. Easy to see why this guy is so well-liked. Called this his "dream job."
