Jalen Adams Game-time Decision Friday

Chief called this one too! In the Sid thread he said there'd be another surprise that would be good. Game time decision is better than indefinite suspension!

These guys are doing an awesome job destroying the positive traction (at least in the minds of fans) that the program had for the past few months. We're due for a season-ending injury and an arrest followed by a loss to a low major.

Easy there Chuck, not sure why anyone would feel the need to type that prophecy.
 
Hurley said he wasn't sure how long the suspension was for prior to the game against Harvard so this is simply telling us and Jalen he still wants more, expects more. Even if he's improved on whatever the situation was that made this mess, he's not going to tell him until the next game which is tomorrow. Pretty simple in the Hurley Laws set up I would say. So if he's been doing what he's been asked he will be playing if not, all on Jalen. This is by no means an Ollie thing, Jalen should be worried about himself and playing hard no matter how he was coached. I know I've pointed out his disregard for the defensive end has hurt us the last 2 years and while we certainly can point to KO and the staff for not sitting him when the effort wasn't there he's a really good basketball player and should be playing hard on both ends just to be the best he can be. It will hurt like hell if he rebels instead of understanding the Dan is not only worried about the team but he wants him to be the best he can be for his future as well.

Grow up kids, geezus.

WELL SAID MAU

Jalen has 5 months to create the future he wants and he’s blowing it. Unreal. Love Hurley for this. Alpha dog

Jump is one of the good guys

Danny has shown zero indication of playing Jump. But, Chief is going to make a prediction that Danny doesn’t even know yet. At some point, Danny is going to get frustrated with the rebounding and as a last default resort - he will put Jump in and he will rebound better than the other guys. Jump will earn playing time.
 
I believe Jalen will play. Point made, hopefully lesson learned but Jalen is not a bad kid. Maybe Coach doesn’t start him but I hope he does.

Haha and then I read Tarin’s Quote

The character attacks on this board are boarder line cringy

Its like Adams is in the 9th inning with 2 out tie game, and not even in the on deck circle. He's should be on 3rd base by now looking to come home. It seems he doesn't know where home base (i.e. NBA) is. Hurley is the 3rd base coach looking at Adams and saying 'Really . . .. Why aren't you here?'

Just saying he's a Senior and at this stage should know where he belongs and act like where he should be heading. I just hope we fans don't want him to excel and succeed more than him.

Tick...Tock.

Basketball players do questionable stuff.

Message board posters follow in kind, and somehow seem clueless about their own questionable behavior.

Maybe the kids do have leadership qualities.

Dan Hurley is holding these guys accountable.

When you haven't had any accountability in the last couple years, it can be hard to clean up. It starts with Jalen, and I love that Hurley is not messing around.

I wish i could give this two more thumbs up. All that ten toes and taking the stairs talk was just that. Talk! Dan Hurley is not playing games and i love it. It seems like hes getting this house in order after several years of neglect. Good to see this as it is a much needed change.

Dunno if the NCAA would have survived though. Some fires burn too hot...

Hurley continued: "If I allow the best player on the team to cut corners, do whatever he wants to do, you'll have a really weak, soft, losing team."

Classic leadership. "I mean what I say and say what I mean". You don't get benched by me. You bench yourself when
you fail to obey the rules. This is a real problem today. In the "heaven on planet earth (hope)" world "I can do whatever I feel like. My feelings are the truth and whatever I feel is truth". This is because you "think" you are entitled to do whatever you want and it expresses itself in "feelings". No obligation to anyone but oneself. This is frequently modern "thinking" and it is everywhere from parenting books to schools. Rude awakening in the real world when recent college graduates are evaluated and told all the areas they are deficient and it brings them to tears.

At my son's college graduating ceremony the kids all had hangovers and the speaker began by loudly saying:
"if you want your dreams to come true WAKE UP!"

I think what Hurley is saying is quite clear. Some people never get it.

I bought a house down here in Florida that sat vacant for two years. It has taken me two years to get it back to where it once was. It will take time and patience, which Dan has. I am certain however that the BY will not put up with too much time as it has little patience

Hurley is already delivering as the HC. He has already landed two top 100 recruits, and has UConn in the lead or right there for a couple of other top 100 recruits.

He has also already brought the intensity to practices. All signs point to the team being better already and that Hurley will continue to steer the team and the program to where it should be.

He has inherited a team with back to back losing seasons, but he hasn't thrown his players under the bus or made any excuses. He has already said he came here to win right off the bat, not that he doesn't care about wins or losses or that it will take him 5 years to rebuild the program.

I am loving everything that Hurley and staff are doing thus far.
