Saying it's a terrible hire is going way overboard. Hiring Pettway or a high school coach would be terrible. Hiring Crean would just be hiring a huge douche but a good recruiter and decent coach.

Is this not describing Grant other than added the douche part? How is that not a terrible hire?

a good recruiter
He really isn't though. He is losing out on nearly every highly regarded guy in the state over recent years.
He has brought in 2 very good recruits so far in Zeller and Blackmon. Blackmon would have gone to UK if it weren't for Aaron Harrison coming back to school and Booker already committed.
He got lucky with DWade. Only had offers from 3 schools because of academic issues. Oladipo was a 3 star guy. If you want to say he develops guys then I would maybe agree, but we don't know how much of that was him and not the player.

decent coach
Loses to a bunch of teams he shouldn't. Rode two top 5 NBA picks to only a sweet 16 appearance. Has a bunch of early exits in the tournament.
