I'm in the camp that believes Hurley is the right guy for this program.  We aren't quite there yet, but are getting closer to being an elite championship team.  It doesn't always happen over night.  Since he arrived, we went from 16-17, to 19-12, to 15-8 and back to ncaa tourney.

This year in my opinion will go down as just an ok-ish...year.  We won't be a final 4...but I think we'll be either 2nd or possibly sweet 16....but not better than that.  Even Jim Calhoun had his fair share of not so good seasons.

I think Uconn will wrap the regular season with a record of 21-9 overall and top 5 in big east.  They'll go no further than the 2nd round of the big east tournament and finish 22-10.  They'll be a 8 seed in the big dance and lose to any 1 seed that they play against.  A 23-11 finish for the season to me sounds like realistic finish.  They can build on that for next years team, but the area they need a serious upgrade is it the point guard position.
