Al and Hank Question
« on: January 24, 2011, 07:30:12 PM »
Lots of talk that Buzz needs an experienced bench coach to help him with the Xs and Os.  (Bring back Dale Layer?)

Are the tall-tails I've heard over the years true that Hank ran practice and designed all the plays in the huddle while Al was the show man and good at calling TOs.

Set the record straight please.

Al McGuire made Hank's reputation. Al ran the show and was awesome game coach. Hank ran practice often but make no mistake it was Al's team and legacy. Al loved the notion people thought he was eccentric and was only recruiter. He was the real deal from start to finish.

I loved Hank, but all of this is true. Al had the final word on everything.
