    Kevin OLLIEHead Coach

    4th year as HC; 6th year at UConnForgive UConn basketball fans if

    they began to experience a bit of deja vu in early March of 2015, hop-ing that Coach Kevin Ollie could engi-neer another remarkable postseason run, just like the one that took the Huskies to the 2014 NCAA National Championship.

    The feel-ing likely only grew stronger as UConn marched through the first three games of the American Athletic Confer-ence Champion-ship to reach the title game for the second straight season. This time, however, the run did not end with a berth in the NCAA Tournament and the Huskies set-tled for another 20-win season and participation in the National Invitation Tour-nament for the first time in five years.

    In three sea-sons as UConns head coach, following two years as an assistant under Hall of Fame Coach Jim Calhoun, Ollie has already experienced a long careers worth of ups and downs. Still, his teams have never won less than 20 games, while posting two perfect APR scores of 1,000. His career record of 72-33 (.686) already has him tied for sixth place on UConns all-time coaching wins list.

    The 2014-15 season was full of

    ups and downs as well --- with wins over top AAC teams SMU, Tulsa and Cincinnati and the thrill ride through the AAC postseason tournament, coupled with six losses by four points or less. At 42, Ollie is still considered one of the bright, rising stars in the

    college basket-ball coaching world.

    It took Ollie just 70 games to join the elite of the profession --- those who have won an NCAA champion-ship.

    In just his second sea-son as UConns head basketball coach and only his fourth year in coaching since retiring from the NBA, Ollie firmly established him-self in the col-lege game by guiding the Hus-kies to a 32-8 season in 2013-14 and the NCAA title, defeating Kentucky, 60-54, in the tourneys

    championship game at AT&T Stadi-um in Arlington, Texas.

    On his way to guiding UConn to their its fourth NCAA crown in the history of the program, Ollie marched the Huskies past storied programs Saint Josephs, Villanova, Iowa State, Michigan State, and Florida in the tournament before the finale against Kentucky.

    Kevin Ollie was a game-changer for us. I think he changed the whole culture in Okla-homa City ... just his mind set, professional-ism, every single day. We all watched that, and we all wanted to be like that. It rubbed off on Russell (Westbrook), myself, Jeff Green, James Harden. Everybody who comes through now, its the standard that youve got to live up to as a Thunder player. And that started with Kevin Ollie.

    2015-16 UCONN MENS BASKETBALL / COACHING STAFF

    coach of just 70 games, whose team was not even able to compete in the 2013 NCAA Tournament because of academic shortcomings of years long past, it was truly remarkable. The Huskies, who had a 12-6 mark in the new American Ath-letic Conference, won eight of their last nine games, 11 of their last 13, and had a 10-4 record against ranked opponents, including two wins against Florida, the overall No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tourna-ment.

    Ollie accepted a huge responsibility on Sept. 13, 2012, when he was named the 18th head coach in the history of UConn mens basketball.

    With only two seasons of coach-ing experience after joining Calhouns staff as an assistant in 2010-2011, Ollie quickly embraced the opportunity to lead the storied UConn program.

    Despite a roster depleted by transfers and early NBA entrants, Ollie surprised the experts by guiding the Huskies to a 20-victory season (20-10), a feat no oth-er UConn coach had ever accomplished in his first year.

    The Huskies also posted a 10-8 mark in the difficult Big East Conference. At seasons end, Ollies efforts were rec-ognized by Collegeinsider.com, which selected him to receive its Ben Jobe Na-tional Coach of the Year Award, given

    5

  • NCAA NATIONAL CHAMPIONS: 1999 2004 2011 2014

    to the top Division I minority coach.

    Less than a dozen games into his first season as head coach, Ollie was awarded a five-year contract. Following his second season in 2013-14, he spurned interest from NBA teams to sign another new contract with UConn that runs through May, 2019.

    Its a humbling experi-ence to be around the UConn fans and the UConn family and to know that I am their basketball coach for the fore-seeable future, Ollie said. Im very proud of that. UCo-nn is a place that I love. This is where my heart is.

    Ollies UConn history --- which began in the fall of 1991 when he reported to school as a freshman from Los Angeles, continued through four successful seasons, in-cluding two as a Husky team captain, and resumed when he returned to join Calhouns coaching staff following a 13-year NBA career --- has come full circle. He may have only served two seasons as an assistant on Calhouns staff, but possessed a wealth of basketball knowledge after learning from some of the finest teachers to ever coach the game, including Calhoun, Chuck Daly, Don Nelson, Lar-ry Brown, and George Karl.

    After 13 years in the NBA, Kevins got a PhD in basketball, Calhoun said as he passed the torch to his former point guard. Hes a great basketball man and an even better person. Im very proud of him.

    Coming out of Crenshaw High School in Los Angeles, Ollie played on some of Cal-houns finest teams during the mid-1990s, as a four-year starting point guard and a two-time captain.

    He played in 124 games for the Huskies, averaging 6.7

    points and 5.0 assists. A third team All-Big East pick, his 619 assist total still ranks fourth on UConns all-time list. He graduated in 1995 with a de-gree in Communications.

    But Ollie was far more con-cerned with team statistics than individual ones. During his four-year UConn career, the Huskies had a record of 92-33, 51-21 in the Big East Conference and made three NCAA Tournament appear-ances. During Ollies last two seasons, when he served as a team captain, UConns re-cord was 57-10 overall and a dazzling 32-4 in the Big East, capturing two Big East

    regular-season champion-ships, and reaching the NCAA Sweet 16 and Elite Eight, re-spectively.

    Yet it was after his UConn career that Ollie was most impressive, displaying un-matched perseverance, intes-tinal fortitude, and a never-say- die attitude as he fought his way through years in the Continental Basketball Asso-ciation and the U.S. Basket-ball League to get his chance in the NBA.

    Once there, Ollie would simply not give up his dream, signing a series of 10-day and one-year contracts, dealing with trades and frustrating roster cuts.

    Yet Ollie would not be de-terred, earning a reputation throughout the league as an outstanding teammate, with strong moral fiber, impeccable character, and a vast knowl-edge of the game. His perse-verance finally paid off with a multi-year NBA contract from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

    In part, Ollie had been brought to Cleveland to men-tor a young LeBron James about acting as a professional and Oklahoma City brought Ollie in to do the same for Kevin Durant. During a 13-year NBA career, Ollie played for 11 different franchises in 12 cities.

    Ollie couldnt have had a more successful debut season to his coaching career than in 2010-11, as he helped guard Kemba Walker produce one of the most spectacular indi-vidual seasons in UConn his-tory in leading the Huskies to the programs third national championship. He has had the same kind of success men-toring guards Jeremy Lamb, Shabazz Napier, and, this past season, Ryan Boatright.

    Born in Dallas on Dec. 27, 1972, and raised in Los Ange-les, Ollie resides in Glaston-bury and has two children, son Jalen (born 6/22/96) and daughter Cheyanne (born 2/6/01).

    Glen MILLERAssociate Head Coach

    13th year at UConnGlen Miller is in his fourth

    season as the Huskies Associate Head Coach under Head Coach Kevin Ollie. It is Millers 13th season overall on the UConn staff and his sixth since returning to UConn in 2010-11.

    Miller rejoined Coach Jim Calhouns UConn staff in 2010-11 as Director of Basketball Adminis-tration following 17 years of head coaching experience at Connecticut College, Brown University, and the University of Pennsylvania. One year later, in 2011-12, he moved into the role of fulltime assistant coach and when Ollie took over as head coach in 2012-13, Miller was appointed Associate Head Coach. He has been an integral part of all practice work, game strategy, re-cruiting and scheduling. Miller has primary responsibility when it comes to film breakdown and evaluation of UConn opponents.

    Millers Division I head coach-ing experience began at Brown in 1999-2000, where his teams set school records for wins in a two-, three-, four-, and five-year span, as well as most Ivy League wins in a season. He recruited and developed 10 all-conference players and the Ivy Leagues 2004 Player of the Year.

    Following seven years at Brown, Miller was hired as head

    coach of the prestigious program at Penn in 2006. He led the Quakers to the Ivy League Championship and an NCAA Tournament berth in 2006-07, setting the school record for most Ivy League wins by a first-year coach. He spent three full years and part of a fourth as the Penn head coach.

    Previous to taking over at Brown, Miller enjoyed a highly-successful span as head coach at Division III Connecticut College. In six seasons, beginning in 1993, Miller led Conn College to unprec-edented heights, including a 28-1 record, a No. 1 national ranking, and a berth in the Division III Final Four in 1998-99.

    In 17 seasons as a college basketball head coach, Miller com-piled 233 victories.

    A native of Groton, Conn., where he starred at Fitch High School, Miller played for two sea-sons at UConn, then played two seasons for Calhoun at Northeast-ern. He joined Calhouns first staff at UConn in 1986 and worked with the Huskies for seven seasons before being named head coach at Conn College in 1993.

    Born Aug. 20, 1961, Miller and his wife Yvonne reside in Mansfield and are the parents of four children: Tony, Genelle, Jillian, and Emma.

    Karl HOBBSAssistant Coach13th year at UConn

    Karl Hobbs is in his 13th season overall on the UConn staff, his fourth as an Assistant Coach after returning to the Huskies in 2011-12 as the Director of Bas-ketball Administration. Hobbs, a former UConn team captain, spent eight years as a UConn assistant coach from 1993-2001 and helped the Huskies win eight Big East championships and the 1999 NCAA title.

    In between his two UConn stints, Hobbs spent 10 years as the head coach at George Washington University, leading the Colonials to two Atlantic 10 Tourna-ment championships, a regular-season title, and five straight postseason appear-ances, including three consecutive NCAA Tournament berths. He was the Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year in 2005-06, and notched 166 wins while at GWU.

    Hobbs began his coaching career as a six-year assistant at Boston Univer-

    sity before joining Jim Calhouns UConn staff. While Hobbs was at UConn, he was instrumental in the recruitment of such Husky stars as Richard Hamilton, Caron Butler, and Emeka Okafor. The Huskies had a record of 216-56 while Hobbs was on Calhouns staff.

    Out of Roxbury, Mass., Hobbs was named Massachusetts Schoolboy Player of the Year in 1979-80 after leading Cam-bridge Rindge and Latin High School to the state high school championship. Hobbs was a four-year starting point guard for UConn (1980-84), where he served as team captain and was an All-Big East selection as a senior. He led the team in assists all four years and still ranks sixth on the all-time list with 534.

    Born Aug. 7, 1961, Hobbs and wife JoAnn are the parents of two daughters, RaShauna and Kaliah.

    Moore, a 1999 UConn graduate with a degree in community program development, came back to Storrs after serving as an assistant basketball coach at Dartmouth College from 2010-2012, following his retirement from an 11-year career in professional basketball. Moore played professionally for 11 years in five countries --- Austria, Ukraine, Sweden, Turkey, and Germany --- as well as in the Continental Basketball Association and the NBA Developmental League.

    During Moores four seasons at UConn (1995-99), the Huskies compiled an overall record of 114-24 and a Big East Conference mark of 55-17, winning three Big East regular-season championships, three Big East Tournament champion-ships, and reaching the 1996 NCAA Sweet 16, the 1998 NCAA Elite, and capturing the 1999 NCAA Championship. He was a three-time co-captain and his 510 assists still rank seventh on the all-time list.

    Moore was named to the 1999 Final Four and West Regional All-Tournament Teams and Basketball News Magazine selected him as the National Defensive Player of the Year. In 2001, he was named to UConns All-Century Team.

    Originally from Augusta, Ga., Moore

    was born April 10, 1976. He and wife Heather are the parents of two children, daughter Kendyll and son R.J.

    2015-16 UCONN MENS BASKETBALL / PREVIEW

    11

    Begin with a solid base of returning veterans. Add a healthy portion of impact newcomers. Blend them to-gether under the direction of a strong coaching staff. Toss the mixture against a demanding schedule for about five months. That sums up the recipe for the 2015-16 University of Con-necticut mens basketball team. The Huskies face the season after the season after win-ning the national championship with renewed enthusiasm, excitement and optimism. Although UConn has eight players returning from 2014-15 --- who accounted for 66.7 percent of the points, 78.2 percent of the rebounds, 68.0 percent of the assists and 92.3 percent of the blocked shots last year --- and even though the team lost just one starter, the 2015-16 Huskies clearly will have a much different look. Credit that to the impact the newcomers will have on the team as they get the chance to make immediate contri-

    butions. Graduate students Sterling Gibbs and Shonn Miller arrive with experience, maturity and resumes filled with col-lege basketball success, while freshmen Jalen Adams and Steven Enoch bring unlimited potential to the program fol-lowing stellar high school/prep school/AAU careers. Even redshirt freshman Terry Larrier, sitting out the season after transferring from VCU, helps the Huskies as a long, athletic, talented swingman to provide high-level competition in prac-tice every day. Combine that group with the returnees: seniors Omar Calhoun, Phillip Nolan and Nnamdi Amilo, juniors Amida Brimah, Rodney Purvis, Kentan Facey and Sam Cassell Jr., and sophomore Daniel Hamilton and there are the makings for an exciting 2015-16.

    BACKCOURT Despite the loss of unanimous first team All-American Conference pick Ryan Boatright, UConn has again placed it-self among the top backcourts in the nation with the addition of Gibbs and Adams. Taking advantage of the fifth-year graduate rule, Gibbs arrives at UConn after a stellar two-year career at Seton Hall, which followed his freshman season at the University of Texas. Last season, he was an All-Big East Second Team pick, as well as second team NABC All-District, second team All-Met Writers, a two-time Big East Player of the Week and a five time selection on the Big East Weekly Honor Roll. He was the only Big East player to rank in the leagues top five in both scoring and assists. Gibbs ability to hit the three-pointer (.436 last season) or take the ball to the basket will combine with the similar talents of returning starter Rodney Purvis to give the Huskies an explosive offensive backcourt. Purvis, a redshirt junior, hit his stride toward the end of last season and shot 40.4 per-

    cent from three-point range over the last nine games, while averaging nearly 17 points a game during that span. Adams, meanwhile, gives UConn another quick, talented player who can effortlessly shift between the two guard po-sitions, equally adept at attacking the basket or distributing the ball. After leading Brewster Academy to the National Prep Championship last season, Adams is likely to see plenty of playing time in the UConn backcourt. Redshirt junior Sam Cassell Jr. had his season cut short in 2014-15, sitting out the last 17 games with a stress frac-ture in his right ankle. If healthy, Cassell gives the Huskies added depth in the backcourt as a solid ballhandler and a long-range shooter.

    SWINGMEN Sophomore Daniel Hamilton comes off an outstanding freshman season that saw him earn American Athletic Con-ference Rookie of the Year honors as he led the conference in rebounding, was second on the Huskies in assists and third in scoring, all while playing any of three positions as needed. With an improved UConn frontcourt this season, Hamilton figures to spend more time at his natural small forward spot, but his versatility is a trait that UConn Coach Kevin Ollie covets. Senior Omar Calhoun was slowed by a strained MCL at the beginning of last season, but recovered to give the Huskies some solid minutes as a deep shooting threat, a role he fig-ures to expand upon this year. Larrier will have three years of eligibility remaining when he begins play for the Huskies in 2016-17. With a build simi-lar to that of Hamilton, and also possessing the same type of game and court versatility, this season Larrier will provide formidable competition during practice, forcing both players to improve.

    FRONTCOURT The UConn frontcourt should be much improved in 2015-16, deeper and more experienced, leading to a more bal-anced offensive attack and making the Huskies more dif-ficult to defend. Much of the Huskies success in 2015-16 will depend on the continued development of junior center Amida Brimah. Already a premier shot-blocker who led the nation in to-tal blocks and was second in blocks per game last season, Brimah captured the American Athletic Conference Defen-sive Player of the Year Award. This season, the 7-footer will be expected to improve his offensive game and his rebound-ing to give UConn an offensive presence close to the hoop. Complementing the big guy at strong forward will be Mill-er, who will spend his final college season with the Huskies after an outstanding three seasons at Cornell University. A unanimous All-Ivy League First Team pick twice in his three years, Miller ranked second in the Ivy League in scoring, rebounding, and free throw percentage, was fourth in blocks and eighth in steals. Miller, who recorded 11 double-doubles last season and had 18 during his Cornell career, gives the Huskies a strong forward who can contribute at both ends of the floor. Phillip Nolan brings 97 games worth of experience into his senior year, including starts in every NCAA Tournament game during UConns 2014 run to the National Champion-

    ship, and starting the final 10 games last season. He will see action at both the 4 and 5 spots after a strong summer of work on his overall game. Junior forward Kentan Facey more than tripled his playing time, as well as his scoring and rebounding numbers, in his sophomore year and started 22 games. He will clearly be part of the battle for minutes up front. Senior Nnamdi Amilo, a former walk-on who earned a scholarship last year, also adds depth to the UConn front-court, while incoming freshman Steve Enoch will have the chance to prove himself and earn playing time after an im-pressive season at St. Thomas More.

    SCHEDULE The 2015-16 Huskies will face a challenging schedule that includes preseason top 5 pick Maryland, former Big East ri-val Georgetown, perennial Top 25 team Ohio State, and Big 12 power Texas as well as a meeting against Michigan in the first game of the Battle 4 Atlantis, a tournament that also includes the likes of Syracuse, Gonzaga, and Texas A&M. In addition, the American Athletic Conference should be much improved this season with most of the leagues key players returning. SMU, Cincinnati, Tulsa, Memphis and Temple seem certain to again battle with UConn for post-season invitations, with Houston , UCF, Tulane, East Carolina and USF each making upward strides. The 2015-16 edition of the Huskies has all the ingredients necessary for success. And with 124 victories and two Na-tional Championships over the past five years, its clear that UConn knows the recipe.

    2015-16 UNIVERSITY OF CONNECTICUT MENS BASKETBALL NOTES UCONN recorded its fifth consecutive 20-victory season in 2014-15, its seventh in the past eight years, and its 16th in the past 18 years. It was UConns 28th straight winning season.

    UCONN is bringing back 66.7 percent of its scoring, 78.2 percent of its rebounding, 68.0 percent of its assists, and 92.3 percent of its blocked shots from last year.

    UCONN returns junior center Amidah Brimah, the 2014-15 American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year. Brimah led the country in total blocked shots last season (121) and was second in blocked shots per game (3.46). His .674 field goal percentage set a UConn single-season record and his .699 fg percentage in league games led the AAC.

    UCONN returns sophomore swingman Daniel Hamilton, the 2014-15 American Athletic Conference Rookie of the Year. Hamilton led the AAC in rebounding in league games (9.1) and was the only freshman in the country to notch 300 points (380), 200 rebounds (267), and 100 assists (128).

    UCONN redshirt junior guard Rodney Purvis came on strong toward the end of last season to average 16.7 points, including career-highs of 28 and 29 points in games against nationally-ranked SMU, and shoot 40.4 percent from three-point range in the Huskies last nine games.

    UCONN incoming graduate students Sterling Gibbs and Shonn Miller combined to average 33.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 32.5 minutes per game last season and started a combined 57 games. Both were all-conference selections, Gibbs (Seton Hall) in the Big East amd Miller (Cornell) in the Ivy League.

    UCONN has 4 NCAA National Championships, 5 Final Four appearances, 8 Elite Eight appearances, and 10 Sweet 16 appearances over the past 20 years. UConns NCAA Tournament record over that span is 43-10, an .811 winning percentage.

    UCONN has an overall 8-1 record in the Final Four, the best winning percentage (.889) in the country.

    UCONN has had 28 four-year players over the last 20 years and has taken 26 of them to the Final Four.

    UCONN has had 27 players drafted in the NBA Draft over the last 25 years, 19 of them were 1st round picks, and 13 of those were lottery picks. The Huskies have also had four players sign as free agents and make the league, including last years captain, Ryan Boatright.
