Not much to disagree with. He does seem overly harsh on KO. But when you take over an elite program and lose to Northeastern, Yale and Wagner, you're giving people ammunition to take shots. And yes, we have caught lightning in a bottle with Hurley, he seems destined for greatness.

I’ll move on when he does. Granted I don’t have 8 figures at stake though.

For perspective, Bob Knight was welcomed back to Indiana for the first time in 20 years this past this season. Bob Knight. Indiana.

Auburn and LSU losing players to? One kid was never going to UConn and the other got $$$$ (well they both did). Only right about the lightning in the bottle. And how stupid is it to say "how can you expect to learn offense from a guy who averaged 3.9 pts a game in 13 years as a pro?" Nice job there, how about the best 2 coaches we've had JC and now Dan Hurley never saw a pro game. How can you learn from them? LOL

Do your homework before you write crap, and crap it is....Next

Synonymous in my mind.

The writing style is annoying, and some of his detailed points are dumb (yes, it was KO's team in 2014, even though he screwed everything up after that), but the overall viewpoint is valid.

KO's teams and players, by and large, didn't improve, were painful to watch, and recruiting was uninspired and mediocre.

That said, this is all known and didn't need to be written again.
