Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 2978967, member: 93"] I agree, and I'll go further and admit that I underestimated Vital's ceiling as a player and his ability to be coached. One of the best coaching moves Hurley has made since coming here imo was his decision to invest his confidence in Vital. As it turns out, it's a wiser investment than I had appreciated at the time. I think some criticism of Hurley at this point is valid because we are seeing other teams make adjustments at the end of the first half and the entire second half, and we are not responding with adjustments of our own. Admittedly we do not have the plethora of options that we thought we might have, and he is still learning how to get these players to respond. But his work with Vital alone gives me confidence that, with the right types of players, he can build something we can be proud of again here. [/QUOTE]
