Frustrated sure.  So who do you think is most upset by this?  James is most upset.  He is probably crushed that he let down his teammates, his coaches, his family and others.   Hurley has said as much.  I do not wish to add my trivial anxiety to his burden.  As for Hurley, he recruited a great player and a kid who is by all accounts, and despite this, a great kid.  He will have bright future here and beyond.   Hurley has no regrets about bringing him to UConn, of that I have no doubt.

One of my favorite players UConn ever brought in is Caron Butler.  From his wikipedia page: "Butler was born and raised in [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racine,_Wisconsin']Racine, Wisconsin[/URL], where he suffered through a rough childhood; he was a drug dealer at age 12 and arrested 15 times before the age of 15.[URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caron_Butler#cite_note-oprah-1'][1][/URL] Butler discovered his love for basketball while at a youth detention center."  Went on to be a lottery pick.

I'm ready for the season.  I expect Bouknight will play a key role as we finally qualify for postseason play.  We are going to be very glad he's a husky.
