I mean, maybe "high potential" given the program's (semi-recent) history, but KO left an absolute mess.They lost me at :
“Now in his sixth season(Hurley), the program was in a great spot when he inherited it and the Huskies haven't missed a beat.”
I think “great” might be a giant overstatement.
There's nothing wrong with commenting on something that's incorrect in an article.We are picked as the 5th best coaching spot in the country. And all the comments so far are negative about what the article (incorrectly) states was the state of the program when DH took over.
Only on the Boneyard

"Now in his sixth season, the program was in a great spot when he inherited it and the Huskies haven't missed a beat. That's a sign of supreme health as a powerhouse."
I read your handle as blue inky. LolOur Louisville local sports News reporters (WLKY )were talking about Louisville going after Dan Hurley " even though he's not coaching royalty" . Lol
Yeah, because getting basic facts wrong typically means the writer may not be all that good at their job. Maybe this is the 5th best job in the country. And if Dan Hurley ultimately retires at some point and goes out on top, we can find out.There's nothing wrong with commenting on something that's incorrect in an article.
I think the sentiment is that Hurley built it into a top 5 coaching spot in the country because when he inherited it, things weren't so shiny and alluring. We were a bit rudderless in the AAC. When he came in, we were still a brand.. but I don't think people were champing at the bit.We are picked as the 5th best coaching spot in the country.

Isn't it "chomping" at the bit?I think the sentiment is that Hurley built it into a top 5 coaching spot in the country because when he inherited it, things weren't so shiny and alluring.

in the same way people say irregardless or for all intensive purposes. Otherwise, no.Isn't it "chomping" at the bit?

Both are arguably considered correct in modern English (though some insist "champing" is the only legit way to go). "Champing" was the historical word, but in recent times "chomping" has emerged as an acceptable variation, partly because "champ" is no longer commonly used in that sense.Isn't it "chomping" at the bit?
Imagine what type of life one must live to rack up 1,700+ posts on another team's message board. Does your envy extend to other programs, too?unfortunately generating pennies from your tv deal (and the future deal looks bleak) means this job is no where near a top 5 job unless uconn finally gets into a power conference.
Curious where you guys would rank on the top college coaching jobs in Cincinnati list.unfortunately generating pennies from your tv deal (and the future deal looks bleak) means this job is no where near a top 5 job unless uconn finally gets into a power conference.
