I honestly think Hurley's recruiting style is kind of playing a game of chicken with other schools. See which schools get impatient with top recruits and turn to gettable commits rather than waiting. Or maybe thats how normal schools recruit, and we were just on the other end for the past couple years

I see it as almost the opposite. Hurley's recruiting does not seem to be about quick pivots or reacting to other schools. It seems to be a highly organized process where he narrows down the pool in spring and early summer and then puts on a very methodical full court press to reel in his targets.

I love the approach.

Does Spring semester end in September? Just checking on shifting damnamics

Nothing sifted. Again reading comprehension is key. The dam broke as I predicted and expect more recruiting wins soon. One recruit may take longer. Nothing has changed.

There is no way Jay Wright is Dukes next coach. Coach K is an impossible act to follow. After the next guy at Duke inevitably fails to live up to the Duke standard and gets fired, THEN Jay Wright will take that job.

You neve want to be the guy after THE guy

You want to be the guy behind the guy behind THE guy.

Yeah thats what I was trying to say. He has a set list of guys he goes after extremely hard. Let's other schools make the quick pivots.

That was the weakest dam in history Chief. Surely, it's just spring a leak, and bust open flooding in the coming months.

I don’t think it’s a weak break at all - we got one 4 Star through the break and more to come.
This twenty minutes thing has long been a joke on the BY. But, Chief believes some people really think in that timeframe.
Expand ...

I'm just playing on semantics. Damn breaking = flood. We got a nice little stream shooting out of a crack right now. Need numbers, that is all.

Aren’t y’all saying the EXACT same thing?

Having joined the BY over a year ago, I've been an avid "Chief" watcher and I must admit that I haven't been able to discern whether the Chief is revered on the BY for his wisdom on all things UConn, or is some sort of good-natured mascot. You certainly called this latest dam breaking accurately so I'm going with the Chief is akin to the "Great and Powerful OZ" of the BY when it comes to the inside scoop until I am shown otherwise. I will be waiting for your next prediction. Gaffney???

There's some weak Chating going on. 1 recruit isn't enough. After the second it will be two is enough. When we finish our class the answer will be "well everyone knew we'd get our targets.

Chief debuted in 2002 saying we were getting LeBron. Said Bunkey's dad was ultimate source and...well.

Sounds like he was off on that one... didn't matter though - turns out that we didn't need Lebron because we won it all with Okafor and company in 2004. :) :)

Exactly, LOL.
Today, Chief turns his attention towards Gaffney.
 
Anyone who thinks the Duke job won't go to someone from the Duke family is an idiot.
 
Does he stay in the hotel tonight in Hartford and then officially start the visit tomorrow?

No, but they were when Matt Doherty did.

I too would take that bet though.

Doherty was Roy's assistant. I think he felt he owed UNC. It worked out for everybody.
 
If it's between us and St. Johns like some articles have said, i don't really see Xavier as a threat and idk what Clemson is doing right now.. I could see locking him up this weekend big time.
