Did Spinelli get us Maric or is my memory failing?  I remember Spinellinas an excellent recruiter and was bummed when he left.

I think that class had Maric, White ( #31, a guard can’t remember his first name…we were going to hire his uncle as an assistant), Marcus Walker, Kyle Marks, Chris Ballam.  Additions, subtractions or corrections ?   The two German guys ?  Was it Barry’s second year we had the transfer PG from Duke ?  I’m rambling sorry….

Jamel White, he almost made a game-winning layup to beat Durant, yet NU lost 62-61 since JW missed a layup. And then he had off-the-court shoplifting charges... ended unceremoniously. I think NU still hired his uncle since Barry C. was nearing the end of his reign of terr(ible) basketball coaching in Lincoln...

Somehow he’s keeping his daily three hour show? Like Michael Scott moonlighting and selling diet pills.

With success likely to be on the same level. It should be comedic gold, if not winning in the competitive sense.

I'm betting he won't ask Cookie Miller to be an assistant coach.                                     Doc Upset over Gottlieb's "Punk" Charge against Miller - Corn Nation

 

That'd be fun if he did, lol.

 

Also, a bit ironic is that Doc Sadler learned under Eddie Sutton, the venerable coach at Okie St, the very school that Dougy G. played at, where he couldn't put on his shorts correctly, sheesh!! lol.

Boy if Hurley does end up leaving how many guys at UConn hit the transfer portal?  You get a 30 day window if your coach leaves.

 

Sounds like UConn is planning to promote from within if Hurley takes the Lakers job, so my guess is not many if any guys will enter the portal.

The best decision he has ever made.  As an aside, his dad never left the high school ranks despite many offers to move to a college gig.  He was one of the best high school coaches of all time; but sort of a Bobby Knight type.
