Hawkins Tyus Battle’d the potential game tying shot.
He’s a big reason they can’t score.Also Andre Jackson averaging 6 and 6 as a Junior
UConn is not the place to go if you want to develop offensively. All Hurley cares about is running around fast and “hustling”. He was a scrub as a player and he overemphasizes scrubby stuff as a coach.Also Andre Jackson averaging 6 and 6 as a Junior
Facts; their fans realize it now too finallyUConn is not the place to go if you want to develop offensively. All Hurley cares about is running around fast and “hustling”. He was a scrub as a player and he overemphasizes scrubby stuff as a coach.

They didn’t guard him all day. They played 15 feet off him. He’s a worse shooter today than he was when he was in high school.Also Andre Jackson averaging 6 and 6 as a Junior
“He’s just gotta try harder and be tougher!!!” - Hurley, probablyThey didn’t guard him all day. They played 15 feet off him. He’s a worse shooter today than he was when he was in high school.
A ranked Providence team lost to the Johnnies today too. BE takes another hit.Am I the only one who looked at the number of ranked Big East teams and scratched their head? Then looked at their schedule results and got more confused?
The Big East feels like a conference of overrated teams from early in the season that are just propping each other up by the ranked teams splitting games with each other in conference play.
I’ve made a note to fade most of the BE teams in the NCAAT.

I still can't figure out how he gets anyone to play there. They have a decent roster, and decent guys coming in, to play for that spastic nutjob.That's because as a coach, he's a no-trick pony.
All effort, intensity, and hustle. That stuff is all important, but there's no substance to his coaching beyond that. Which is why his teams are limited.
Also, fffffffuconn.
I used to be a KenPom evangelist. But i think there are considerable flaws with his system. The Big10 got like 9 or 10 teams in the tourney last year and they all flamed our before the Sweet 16. Meanwhile the ACC was the opposite. I think the non-conference portion of the schedule is given too much weight. Also, the baseline they start with at the beginning of the season weights certain teams more heavily. And then all the same teams are playing each other in conference and it becomes a self perpetuating echo chamber. We’ll see how it plays out in the post season. Either way, college basketball is rife with parity these days.I love when this thread is bumped.
How the @@& are they still in the top ten in Kenpom?
ink the non-conference portion of the schedule is given too much weight.

I’ll be picking all of them to lose early in the tourney. Unless Seton Hall sneaks in. I think they’ve got a miracle run in them.Am I the only one who looked at the number of ranked Big East teams and scratched their head? Then looked at their schedule results and got more confused?

At 15-11, a worse record than SU I might add, I don’t see them sneaking in or making any sort of miracle run.I’ll be picking all of them to lose early in the tourney. Unless Seton Hall sneaks in. I think they’ve got a miracle run in them.
True, but they’ve got wins over Memphis, Rutgers(on the road), and UConn.At 15-11, a worse record than SU I might add, I don’t see them sneaking in or making any sort of miracle run.
I don't watch him, think the antics are dumb.
Getting a team however to buy in to break their rears on every possession is a good coaching skill. Wonder when that dies because there's no second act.
Yeah. He still coaches like he is at URI. He has dialed back the madness but hasn't progressed as an in game tactician whatsoever or development guru. Jackson has arguably regressed - and seems he made a commitment to getting him to UConn as he gets the kind of favoritism we complain of players here..
Yesterday's game highlighted that. He had his team running the same action to get Hawkins come off a curl screen all game long. Hawkins is good enough to come clean vs most teams, when the illegal screening action isn't called. He still has his guys being overtly handsy and physical fouling in every phase of the game.
