It’s in your blood’: Jersey made Dan Hurley who he is, how he coaches UConn

Wow I thought everyone scared you off of this take, haven't seen it in awhile. Do you just think everyone born in NJ is incapable of leadership?

No only if they're under 6'6. Wings and bigs are perfectly capable leaders.

Given the lack of success of New Jersey college basketball programs, one has to wonder about the validity of such a point of view. Why hasn't this toughness and make up translated into success at the collegiate level? I think that is a fair question.

Does that also apply to NJ Football? Other than a short blip, Rutgers has sucked big time....but it hasn't stopped top tier FB programs from coming to NJ to recruit. You can have good players that leave the state, just like you can have good programs from states that don't have much native talent.
