Message: [QUOTE="Sphinx, post: 3862938, member: 4623"] Getting back to the theme of Hurley pulling a rabbit our of his hat, how's the following for a little magic? UConn is 16-6 in its last 22 games dating back to last year, including 7 (SEVEN) conference road wins. This despite the total loss of Akok and major downtime for Bouk and Jackson. If Cole makes a foul shot and Bouk stays healthy, the team is probably 21-1 in that period. Everything said above (and elsewhere) about Hurley's shortcomings is basically a lament that we did not beat Villanova last Saturday. That is the only failing of this team that cannot be excused by injury or the single bounce of a free throw on a rim. And the Villanova game was against a Top Ten team in their own gym. Going forward, it's not so much whether Hurley can pull a rabbit out of the hat as whether there's anything left in the hat. [/QUOTE]
