seems like basketball material.
But Danny Boy took over a traditional power that was 2 years removed
from playing in the tourney from a HC that was 127-79 there and had a National Championship himself there
Ever hear of Jim Calhoun the program he ran made Connecticut one of the best and Danny Boy profited by that when going after talent
Pike took over garbage and is making Rutgers into a good program, greatness is yet to be obtained.
Some comparisons need to look at who;e picture and not just part of it.
Hurley is a good coach in a great situation and he's good enough to take advantage of it
Talent had no problem looking at UConn as a program to commit to
Pike entered a bad place and is just now making it into a good program after slowly improving the program.
Talent gave Rutgers a wide berth, but now are starting to look on it favorably .
