[QUOTE="vadimivich, post: 549535, member: 2338"] The Austin Jackson loss really hurt, and Hewitt definitely went with the Cremins model "all eggs in a single basket" approach when it came to a few positions ... there was just nothing there are Jackson chose the Yankees, or after Crit left for the NBA. And weak guard play with the style we had at the time was a death knell in several of those poorer season. We were also better in several years than people seem to remember. That '09-'10 season in particular was viewed strangely by the fans even as it was happening. We won 23 games, played for an ACC Championship and won an NCAAT game. It's one of the better seasons in the history of GT basketball, and even in the moment people were complaining and upset like we were going 13-23, not the opposite. Hell, we beat Duke [B]and[/B] UNC (twice!) that year (which freaking never happens for GT). Hewitt wasn't a great coach, but he wasn't an awful one either and he did far better here than anyone other than Cremins ever has. The fact we haven't even remotely approached the level of "success" of his final 5 seasons at GT since then is an indictment on everyone involved. [/QUOTE]
