The Coaching 101 syllabus doesn't typically include "year 3 of a total rebuild," a significant jump in competition in a new conference, a worldwide pandemic, an injured lottery pick, and significant injuries to the next two most highly regarded recruits.

Hurley's overall offense, rotation management, and in-game adjustments have been less than sparkling. BUT his three fall signings meet identified needs, and both Sanogo & Jackson showed growth in skills and attitude in an othrtwise very disappointing game today. The Bouknight situation is no less than unsettled and unsettling.

Last year's team didn't get over its hump and start closing out games that were "excruciating losses" until about this point in the season, and by then they had quite a few more games played. This team may or may not get sufficiently coached and collect itself to win without its star. And it may or may not get its star back. We'll see.

I'll be watching.
