Usually I can find a connection between the coaches of preconference teams we play and Bill Self.
Robert Ehsan played at UC Davis, then assisted Gary Williams at Maryland, then interim coached Maryland a season, then assisted at Virginia Tech, then replaced Jerrod Haase at UAB, when Mr. Floor Burns left for Stanford.
Is UAB scheduled just because Jerrod was at UAB and happened to leave before the opponent could be rescheduled, or is there a 10 Degrees of Bill Self connection to Elshan?
I haven't found one yet.
