Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 760342, member: 628"] I'm certainly no soothsayer, but I disagreed with UConn's decision and I was pretty adamant about it at the time. My point of view was opposite of your's. I felt that UConn was plenty "stable" in the sense that Edsall used a totally unappealing style to grind a way to four seasons of 9-4, 8-5, 8-5, and 8-5. I didn't see how that was sustainable, since everyone said their recruiting was still pretty lousy. UConn has no natural recruiting base and, IMHO, needed a young, innovative guy that could lure under-recruited, but athletic, kids to a creative, high-flying system that would level the playing field for them. P & D were plenty innovative in the 90s, but was hard to see them being that today. [/QUOTE]
