How did UConn afford Kevin Ollie's buyout and Dan Hurley's new salary? Hurley is making more than Mick, but I have a funny old feeling he and his staff are going to outrecruit us like there's no tomorrow.

We just invested $90M in an arena, but we draw the line at getting a new assistant coach, who may not even cost more than they ones we have? That's really freaking stupid. Not saying it isn't true. But it's really, really stupid. An extra $100K (in theory) is a drop in the bucket compared to the arena. And if it can improve the product that you just invested all that money in? What?

Would Mick replace any of the coaches if he could anyway? I guess that's where we should start.
