Kevin Ollie, who won a national title at UConn, has been hired as the head coach for the Overtime Elite, a new avenue for top 16- to 18-year-old prospects.
Kevin Ollie To Coach Elite NBA Prospects
- Thread starter KhalidShockedTheWorld
- Start date
"These players would lose college eligibility"
Looks like the perfect fit.... a coach who is banned from the NCAA, working with players who can't play in the NCAA, once he starts coaching them.

One thing I don't like about this league is it will be sucking away a lot of talent from the colleges. I posted in another thread Mick Cronin's complaints about the NBA G league immorally raiding and tampering with kids committed to colleges. One can imagine that it will be the same with this league. What is to stop Ollie from contacting UConn's 3 recruits for next year and recruit them for the new league. Nothing. The NCAA has no ability to stop this kind of thing.
College coaches now have to watch their backs on 3 fronts:
(1) other coaches negative recruiting;
(2) NBA G League tampering and raiding;
(3) Elite Prospect League tampering and raiding.
