Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 3392637, member: 2844"] KO couldn't win in the AAC and Dan Hurley hasn't won in the AAC - why? Because neither can recruit the players they thought they needed rather than recruit players for the AAC. Dan Hurley gets the advantage of the NBE, KO didn't KO should have been let go for the record in the past few years and in reality IF UConn had not gotten into the NBE and Dan Hurley kept recruiting like he and KO have, he would have similar results. Now in the NBE a better brand of player - those bigger and stronger - will look closer at UConn - that is fantastic and a good thing for the program What happened between JC and KO is not all in the open so to speculate is nonsense IF KO was a total DB (like many here speculate him to be) I honestly don't think so many ex players and friends would feel about him the way they do. It's telling that 90% of ex players, people who are very close to the program through involvement above the level of fan and friends felt he got a raw deal while 90% here feel the exact opposite I applaud Caron for speaking his mind but It's history now There's a lot of explayers out there who mean so much to UConn and have so much to offer - it's a shame - Dan Hurley/staff and the administration have a heavy fence building effort in front of them if they feel these people have a legitimate voice and DEEP pockets - I can't speak for the staff or admin - maybe they don't care [/QUOTE]
