Amazing.

ESPN - In first meeting with media, Olson says O'Neill won't remain on Arizona staff - Men's College Basketball

TUCSON, Ariz. -- Lute Olson said he's "really excited" to be back as Arizona's basketball coach.

He sure didn't seem that way Tuesday.

In his first news conference since returning from a season-long leave of absence, a testy Olson sparred with reporters and provided few specifics for the leave, which was the subject of endless rumors and speculation in this basketball-obsessed city.

Olson also said assistant coach Kevin O'Neill, who served as interim coach last season and was even named Olson's eventual permanent successor, will not remain on his staff.

I wonder what went down to make O'Neill leave. I guess he wasn't too excited about Olson coming back. I think Arizona can do better than Kevin O'Neill when Lute Olson leaves anyways.
