Littlepage says win total alone will not determine Gillen's coaching fate

Filling in for traveling head basketball coach Pete Gillen on the Cavalier Call-In radio show, Athletic Director Craig Littlepage fielded question after question regarding the coach's uncertain future.

Adamantly denying that Gillen's job status will be determined solely by wins and losses, Littlepage stressed other factors in his decision such as recruiting effectiveness, retention of student-athletes and player graduation rates.

Gillen has compiled a 99-74 record over the past six seasons at Virginia. But one post-season birth and a current 3-8 ACC record have significantly increased the talk surrounding Gillen's removal. Despite all the rumors, Littlepage maintains that he will continue to work and support the coach.
