Is it now completely out of the realm of possibility that we couldn't land this kid, or others like him, with the Hurley's at the helm?

Somewhat related, but this article about Hurley recruiting Dwaun Anderson was just in the Staten Island paper. As some of you know, Anderson was a former Mr Basketball in Michigan and a 4 star/Rivals, 3 star/ESPN recruit that Hurley got to Wagner. Impressive, to say the least.

From the article:
Anderson was still being pursued by Big East schools like Rutgers and Villanova, after all. But he took a visit. And super-salesman Dan Hurley drew Anderson in.

“He was funny and down-to-earth, and the guys all said how much they loved playing for him,” said Anderson of the then Wagner coach. Anderson also felt embraced by the team as a whole, from coaches to players to support staff. It felt like, well, “family,” he said.

Preston is once more flying somewhere or coming back from somewhere.
I hope he got his man!

I know Preston was watching his son play football yesterday in a championship game. Does his family live here or are they back in Michigan? I wonder if that's where he was.

OK, so that must mean he was traveling out of RI today.

Coaches' lives are crazy- always something/body to scout, recruit, watch.
