Message: [QUOTE="djct1999, post: 4277706, member: 2281"] You aren’t wrong. The one question I have is by what metric do you use to evaluate Hurley as having cracks? He brought UConn back to relevance in three years, has us nationally ranked, is a top notch recruiter, and is always able to put together a high quality staff. I think too many on here drink the koolaide of unrealistic expectations. For me, every thing Hurley has done so far is on course and remains a great fit for this job. Does that mean he is perfect? Nope. Far from it. Until now he has used a similar recipe that brought him success at Wagner and URI. That’s is good to a point but he undoubtedly has to evolve as a coach to get UConn over the hump. Rather than crucify him for a job that was rather well done, I say give him some more time. The irony in all of this is the first step in evolution is recognizing your mistakes and cutting bait with what doesn’t work. He did that this offseason and is still getting slammed. So my biggest gripe on here is he is getting criticized for his mistakes and also getting slammed for trying to fix it. Which is it? [/QUOTE]
