Once again someone taking my comment totally out of context, assigning me a fake take that I never made, and then attacking it and calling me a moron.   Of course I would take 2 national titles over a 4 year or 10 year period (2010-2020), if you told me that we were guaranteed 2 national titles.

The point I was making is what can we learn from UConn,. since that is what I was quoting.   [B] See post 65.  [/B]

I am nothing but complimentary to Danny Hurley that is absolutely something we should analyze and learn from.   He has taken a a program who was modestly performing in recent years, even with the national title, to what it look like a giant who will consistently compete for national titles year after year like those great team's of the 90's and 2000's.

If you want to look at a model that is a good one for us to follow, the Danny Hurley build is it.   But prior I wouldn't look to that period as something to replicate from a building perspective.

Yes our goal is National Titles.   But if we build teams to get 7-9 seeds in the future over the next 10 years, and miss the tournament half the time, no its very unlikely we get titles or final fours.   If we do get a title I would absolutely take that period and be happy - but being a realist I would note that would almost certainly not happen.. The goal has to be building consistency and at times more elite teams like Hurley has.
