What's this?

New pro basketball league for top prospects age 16-18 (link)

Looks like they're forming a new league called "Overtime Elite" and have hired former UCONN coach Kevin Ollie as coach/director of player development. IIRC, Ollie got UConn in hot water with the NCAA and left in disgrace a few years ago. This could get interesting. The beginning of the end for college basketball as we know it?
