O'Connor pulled a Buzz Williams. Reset that clock while he could, and managed to get an SEC team to pony and pay him that money.
Preseason #2 this year, absolutely loaded roster, and missed the NCAA tourney altogether.
Not even close, IMO. UVA wasn't giving him the NIL funds he wanted/needed and I've read that he saw below average SEC teams get to host while his injury riddled team that should've made the tourney gets left out.
They finished ahead of duke, miami, wake and louisville this year in the conference.
The dude won the only baseball natty the ACC has seen since 1955, he was coaching at UVA as long as he wanted to.
