Mostly Haith, but a small portion mike anderson. Anderson left haith with a stocked senior class and phil. For being a "great recruiter", haith was awful at recruiting. He was a horrible game manager. Definitely Haith's mess

Quit blaming Alden.

The Quin hire was viewed as a home run at the time. A long time assistant under the greatest CBB coach in history, a true Coach K product. Had Coach K's backing, no reason to doubt it at the time. It didn't work like that, but hindsight is 20/20.

Haith was a terrible hire, but everyone was already hired since anderson left so late.

KA was a good backup plan. I was in support of the Marshall or bust. Still think he is the 2nd best coach in CBB right now behind Coach K. Didn't matter who we had coaching this season, we all knew it would be bad. KA has done alot of right things since coming here. Got the pinnacle of recruiting with Fulford, which will put us in the picture with every elite recruit out of Huntington Prep. No way would we have gotten Teki, nor would Thomas Bryant even be on our radar.

Do I hate the way we are struggling, yes.Will it get bettter, also yes

He has hired a coke addict, a guy that bailed when the next job came calling, an all-around awful hire, and an AARP member. It's at least partially his fault.

Couldn't agree more. It was expected that this year's team would struggle considering the state Haith left the roster in. The fact that we're even in the conversation with some of these 4 and 5 star prospects gives me reason for optimism with KA.
