I didn't say he did.
What I said was when he doesn't have the opportunity to spend time with kids as he would in a "normal" recruiting situation he loses some of his ability to figure out if a kid will fit with the team he's building. If you take that to its logical conclusion, there are nuances he may pick up from whatever interaction he's able to have with a kid that may serve as proxies.
Hurley's quote from an article I posted two weeks ago:
"Every scholarship is so important that the lack of access and ability to have recruits around us for [on a visit], or in their homes, to really get to know people, it makes it a little bit scary," UConn coach Dan Hurley said. "You could fool somebody on the phone for a half an hour. But in person? Two breakfasts, couple lunches, couple dinners, people start getting comfortable and reveal themselves. I think there's going to be a lot of mistakes both ways."
