UConn Men’s Basketball: Isaiah Whaley Deserves More Playing Time

Related Topics: University of Connecticut, Game

The Dan Hurley tenure at UConn has been as good as anyone could have reasonably hoped through ten games. The team is playing close games (and sometimes winning!) against high-profile opponents, the entire culture has changed from the past two losing seasons, and players who had previously struggled on the court are now succeeding.

That doesn’t mean he’s been perfect so far, of course. While it’s hard to pick out any areas in which Hurley’s coaching has been deficient, there is one decision that has been, at the very least, interesting. That would be Hurley’s decision to keep Isaiah Whaley on the bench, hardly cracking the rotation in the last few games.
