Message: [QUOTE="Towney007, post: 2664277, member: 5832"] Hurley's going to evaluate what's going to work for his program. I'm not sure what the deal is on Akinjo, and I'm not all that familiar with the details of Matthews, but from all indications - Hurley pretty clearly had less than no interest in Kisunas. Worked him out, said 'meh' and on we go. There's a size problem in the program, but there's also a toughness problem. And what'll happen is pretty straight forward. Some kids will stay and do really, really, really well with Hurley. Some kids will stay and squeeze some basketball out of themselves and help a bit. Some will 9-5 it and will stay because they can for a year - but ultimately ride the end of the bench. Then there's a gaggle of kids who will quit/be let go/asked not to come back/de-commit. My feeling based on watching these kids the past two years is more will be towards the later category. All seemingly good kids - but this guy seems pretty laser focused in terms of what and who he wants on the team and what kinds of players he wants. And I've got a feeling that the kinds of players he wants are going to be about as far away from being the type of player Kevin Ollie liked as possible.. [/QUOTE]
