Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4825742, member: 44"] Note that it was Hurley who said that he had to adjust his coaching style before he would be able to coach in the NBA. When you are saying coaching style you're talking about schemes. I agree with you that Hurley runs NBA style sets, and his team runs them exceptionally well. Though he did not define it, what I think Hurley meant about adjusting his coaching style was 1) sideline demeanor and 2) the way he interacts with his players. Hurley is an excellent college coach and a very demanding one. I suspect what he was referring to is the need to adjust that style when working with pro athletes, many of them have larger contracts than the Coach. [/QUOTE]
