Message: [QUOTE="Dogdeacon, post: 4252748, member: 1026"] A fair overall point. Nevertheless, Bob Hurley Sr has been the subject of and written multiple books (I read the Miracle of St A's a long time ago), continues to coach clinics and his success at St Anthony's should not be viewed from afar or over-simplified. The basketball philosophy was not get the best athletes and roll the balls out, it was more that out-working the competition can forge the good players into the best players. Or for example on the bright side of analogies one could surmise the tenuous or transitory nature of St A's created a need for program building, infrastructure, support, a coaching team vs just a head coach. If he learned these lessons from his father all of that has and can continue and should help Dan Hurley. So if we conclude Dan Hurley has to work harder and build a more complete program, its reasonable to project that given his background he has the mentality to embrace and accomplish that. [/QUOTE]
