Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 5093884, member: 405"] No, put me in Camp Boeheim on this one. He's a legend in Storrs. It fits his personality. His act will not play well with pros. He'll be out of a job in 2 years, not last 11 like Billy Donovan did. An article I read said that if he stays and wins 3 in a row (first since Wooden), it would thrust him into the all-time top 10 NCAA coaches. He's maybe top 25 now, and he is the pre-season number 1, with a great lineup, and a terrific style of play. He could keep this job forever, just like Gino has done. LeBron James could have him fired by February. That's a no-win situation for a first time coach who does not defer to players like a lot of the best NBA coaches seem to do, really manage the egos. Hurley [I]is[/I] the ego. He still went after a bunch of people in the stands at games this year - despite winning a championship last year, and being a top 5 team, if not #1, pretty much all season.
