Through six games (Uconn coach Kevin) Ollie has already impressed, leading the Huskies to a 5-1 record that is highlighted by an opening-season victory against Michigan State, who was ranked 14th at the time.

“He’s been doing great,” Chicago Bulls guard and former Huskie Rip Hamilton said to HOOPSWORLD. “I thought we had a tough schedule so far going to Germany, coming back and things like that but I think he’s been doing awesome.”

It may just be six games into a season that has no chance for postseason play, but Ollie has already won over many, including Hamilton.

“He should [get an extension],” Hamilton said. “I’m vouching for him. I think a lot of the alumni guys are vouching for him.”
