Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 3781008, member: 2844"] Jay Wright has a better than 50/50 chance Hurley won't be as successful as most here feel he will be if he doesn't learn how to instill an effective offensive scheme and stick to it. He can recruit all the 4 and 5 star guys in the world but unless you give them the opportunities to play with an effective flow while possessing the ball - all we are going to see is a bunch of street ballers standing around. Ben G, Rip, Rashad, Ray, Caron - they all moved without the ball and created multiple options on each possession. We haven't seen that at UConn in a long time. Giffs and Jeremy showed some of that movement but KO's and Dan Hurley's teams have mostly been lacking an effective offense - and both were PGs which blows my mind. Dan Hurley is a really good recruiter and he will bring in the ballers but without a plan he won't get the best results out of them scoring the ball. Defense is important but only 50% of the game.
