When they won the 2014 national title, I told UConn fans that it wasn't much of Ollie's doing, that IMO he was largely riding Calhoun's wave and that they would find out he really isn't cut out for the job.

I was greeted with a hail of brick-bats from UConn fans for that, but seems like since then the wheel has turned far closer to my position, so this wouldn't surprise me.

It isn't that we UConn fans vehemently disagreed with you back in 2014. It is that we didn't want that statement delivered to us by someone who was viewed as a Big East homer and the statement itself was a little bit premature (as there was no need to doubt Ollie back then right after he won a natty). Now that we have seen a longer period of Ollie's work, it is glaringly clear that the emperor has no clothes. While you nailed Ollie correctly for what he is back then, you had a 50-50 chance of guessing it correctly, so your odds weren't too bad.
