That's how he chose to construct his team. There was nothing stopping him from grabbing some solid juniors and seniors in the portal to round out the roster. Or just recruiting guys who wouldn't be 1-and-done. His best player this year was a Senior too.

UConn is doing it with young talented players too. They just have a vastly superior head coach. If you gave Hurley that Kentucky team, they'd be in the Final Four.
