    Dan Hurley “Seriously” Considered Stepping Down From UConn Last Year

    It could've been far worse than Indiana. I think people forget just how dire things looked. Sure we were only 5 seasons away from winning it all but we were terrible and we were stuck in a conference playing Tulane in an empty high school gym having our games broadcast from what looked like a...

    Dan Hurley “Seriously” Considered Stepping Down From UConn Last Year

    We haven't been here before, that's the whole point. Hurley took us to an even higher level. We have the best coach and best program in the country now. Stop moving the goal posts and act like we have the best coach and program in the country.

    Dan Hurley “Seriously” Considered Stepping Down From UConn Last Year

    Duh, which is why I said Calhoun basically built it from scratch and had us in the mix as one of the top programs. The program was a dumpster fire when Hurley took over going 30-35 overall and having a losing record in a horrible AAC over the previous two seasons. Not to mention recruiting...

    Dan Hurley “Seriously” Considered Stepping Down From UConn Last Year

    Calhoun is my favorite coach ever and he built this thing basically from scratch but your point is 100% true and it's not said enough here. UConn was in the mix but they weren't viewed as the premier program in college basketball under Calhoun and Calhoun wasn't viewed nationally as the top...

    Dan Hurley “Seriously” Considered Stepping Down From UConn Last Year

    I love Kimani but Luke is the perfect guy to lead the program for a long time. He's young, he's a decade younger than Kimani, he's basically an offensive basketball savant who designed our offense and he's been with Hurley at Wagner, URI, and UConn.

    I fully expect Luke Murray to take over the program whenever that time comes and Hurley retires.

    Calhoun can talk to him about how Calhoun told the media he almost left UConn for South Carolina in 2001.

    2026 Recruiting: Abdou Toure Announces Top Seven

    It's really only Putnam Science Academy and St. Thomas More in CT consistently putting out D1 kids.

    Dan Hurley “Seriously” Considered Stepping Down From UConn Last Year

    High level college basketball coaching is more difficult/all-encompasing now than it's ever been and he puts more into it than any coach I've ever seen. It's just non-stop from him with the intense practices, the non-stop recruiting, the game day experience, taking losses harder than anyone...

    Bill Belichick’s UNC Debut

    I'm sure it's accurate but it isn't funny. TCU is just two touchdowns and a two point conversion away from covering Belichick's age gap. Jordon Hudson left at halftime because it's a school night. There's a whole bunch of easy jokes to make about the age gap, making them much closer in age...

    Skip might actually think LT and Jordan are still playing at Carolina.

    Bill Belichick’s UNC Debut

    The joke doesn't work. Downplaying their age gap renders the joke useless.

    Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

    He's right about UVA being a trash football program. We may be at the stage where the Big 20 is looking to add more trash to create rivals for Rutgers.

    OT: Hall of Pretty Good

    That's one of several reasons he gets in as soon as he's eligible. I already answered this for you. He has 2,500+ points more than Tom Chambers who is the player with the most career points who is not in the Hall of Fame. Nobody with 9 all-star appearances has ever been left out of the Hall...
