I’m more saying with J Stew that I need to see it more consistently. Need him and Ball to be playing at the same level if we’re going to be a 2nd weekend team. Stew played very well tonight. Need that every night bStewart played well. 14 points. Carried the early. Two blocks on Dixon playing straight up on him. Johnson was ok as well beyond the usual foul trouble. Their D let too many drives get to the rim, and Alex’s shot was off all night. That’s it.
Tough conference loss at an on campus gym. They win that at Well Fargo.
Yep completely horseshit. Tired of getting completely fuxked by the refsThat’s a shooting foul 100 percent!!!!!

He really needs an anger management intervention. I recall having read somewhere that his wife called him out on this sort of stuff at some point a year or so ago. And I agree with Average Reds -- berating refs could very well come back to haunt both him and the team.I have been a big fan of Hurley, but this is kind of … gross.

Now, I may be reading too much into this, but the kind of attitude that Hurley displayed here can’t be good for UConn, in the sense that if you belittle those around you (including referees) they are going to find ways to make you humble.
This is a weird take. What made the Big East great was the quality of the players and teams, not a bunch of asshole coaches. But using this logic, you must have been a huge fan of Temple growing up. Or Frank Martin. It’s ok to acknowledge when your guy is an asshole. You won’t have to hand back the memories of watching those title teams.The sport needs more people like Dan Hurley. The regular season doesn't exactly command a lot of attention from national media types. You know what was talked about on First Take this week? College basketball. When is that last time that happened? The game needs more characters like Hurley. Coaches with similar demonstrative attitudes is what made the Big East the Big East. Louie, Calhoun, Boeheim, Rollie, etc. Does the complaining from fans of other programs have a bit of jealousy at what he's accomplished the last 2 years? Likely. When you win, the lights shine brightest and he has not changed one bit from the coach that came in to Storrs. Good for him.
To much more important things than what Dan Hurley looks and sounds like on the court: I have not seen any further updates on when Liam McNeeley is coming back. Has anybody else?
Not a weird take at all actually. The coaches were as just a big of a part or even bigger than the players to make the BE what it was. As for Hurley, I just don't think he's an asshole. There's a lot of coaches that are demonstrative on the sidelines. Does he push the line sometimes? Yes. So do others. Does he get all of the attention of it? Yes.This is a weird take.

I’ll give Hurley this - he isn’t a phony like Coach K. I am envious of the resources UConn pours into the hoops program. They’ve obviously done a great job.Not a weird take at all actually.

As a BC guy, I'm also wondering whether or not you and your fellow BC fans regret going to the ACC. I'm sure the money is great, but you guys haven't been good since Skinner left and football hasn't been consistently good. I wish you guys were still in the BE.
What a douchebagI have been a big fan of Hurley, but this is kind of … gross.

WTF does relevancy to do with it?Holy shit you Connecticut folks are touchy. Don’t worry, you’re relevant!
....announced right after the Arizona coach locked horns with Hurley's brother.Arizona and UConn doing a home and home. At UConn next year, at AZ the next.
