Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 4267806, member: 2844"] Part of his problem is he lays all kinds of superlatives on his recruits which gives them all a "can't miss" label. Unless you absolutely know that a kid will be an AA and gone in one or two years it may be a better idea to laud some of the things they do and simply say he may open some eyes in a short time. If you hear guys like Jay W, they usually say that the kid comes in with lots of hype and we have seen what attracted us to him but he now starts all over from day one. There was no excuse for Dan Hurley not to use his freshmen in those early cupcake games - it was a wasted opportunity. I think he knows it but so far he hasn't admitted it. If Gaffney and Akok are at a crossroads now, what has transpired since the last game to place them in that category? Gaffney's minutes could have been better utilized during the year. [/QUOTE]
