Me too. Incredibly arrogant comment.
Lightning in a bottle. I’m willing to bet, he wouldn’t win as much as Pope has with the team we have this year. Matter of fact, he probably has more talent at UConn right now.
I agree with you 100%. Look at his record before the last 3 seasons and you would be wondering how he had the same win percentage as Crean his first 12 seasons and now everyone thinks he is the 2nd coming of Wooden.
That's not really what those two title teams were at all. Three starters from that 2023 title team were replaced going into the 2024 season. There wasn't really a set of core of guys like the Florida teams had.
Like maybe literally always. I recall his dad once saying that when they were kids he eventually had to forbid Danny from playing against his older brother because it would end in a fistfight every time they played.
And said that while multiple late non-calls won him the game against freaking Butler. Shows you can simultaneously be a genius and a moron.
Right, they didn't have same whole core. But they had many of the same pieces and especially the big dude.
That treatment is reserved for UK my friend.
Yeah, there's a fine line. I don't mind a coach being fiery and maybe even a smartass here an there (the Tubby stare, the Pitino glasses gesture to refs, Cal's going forehead to forehead with Pat Adams (man, I though he might be back when he did that.....cest la vie)) but Hurley is just another arrogant Yankee prick. That complete lack of humility doesn't sit well down here in the mid-South (and really anywhere else in the country minus the West Coast- even then they don't do that much either).
Hurley: “I’m the best ****ing coach in this sport!”
Steven A made a big deal out it today defending Hurley because he first said "don't turn your back on me..."
Its funny that you could almost see this kind of thing growing on him in real time the past couple of years, like mold on a wet spot. He really got caught up in his own notoriety and you could see him do it as he started playing to the camera and over reacting to everything. . . like Barney Fife when something went something went good for him!
yeah, but that makes them as bad as it gets....that's why we ALL see bullshit calls.....they're supposed to be devoid of that stuff......we can't support them just cause we think they might go after a reprobate like hurley....
It's exactly what they should do. And that's how you treat adults. I'm not going to acknowledge your temper tantrum just to stroke your massive.....ego.
