Given how many on this Board regularly harpoon Hunt , this strikes me as balanced and more complimentary than not.   Does Hunt come out from the cold now!!!

He has the ability to write some very interesting and well researched articles. He also has the ability to be superficial and judgmental.  I think as he has more exposure to the program some earlier criticisms may be less relevant.

No--not yet, but there has been improvement.

Call me old fashioned, but I don't think that it is asking too much to spell the names of the veteran players correctly of the team of which you are the beat writer.

Ending a question with multiple exclamation points rather than a question mark; interesting. 

Does Hunt come in from the cold?  Umm, let's see a couple more like this first.

Hunt's main problems as a college BB beat writer are that he does not check his facts and he writes as if he is covering a pro team.  In today's article, Hunt is writing an opinion piece.  That's up his alley and there are no facts to be questioned.  Nice piece, bu I'm not so sure this is the beginning of anything...?
