Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 4897755, member: 10"] Good article with quotes from Hurley and Seth Greenberg (buddies with Hurley). [I]“I just knew that first team – and it wasn’t easy, the losing was tough, but I’d been through it before, … For me, (it was) just the understanding that that first group would be the foundation. The effort we put into them, the time, was going to lay a foundation of trust with future teams. Although we didn’t win as much as we all wanted to on that first year’s team, I think we established a way of doing things, we established a credibility and a trust in our players that we were gonna push hard for them and give them every chance to be successful,” he said. “And when recruits were taking unofficial visits while that team was around, and they asked those players what we were all about, they would vouch for us – and that’s not why we did it. We did it because the job of a coach is to take what you have and make the absolute best out of it, create great relationships and just maximize your time together.”[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.courant.com/2024/03/01/a-championship-level-culture-is-now-in-place-at-uconn-thanks-to-vision-of-dan-hurley/[/URL] [B][U]Alternate access:[/U][/B] [URL='https://archive.ph/6rBnP'][B][COLOR=rgb(44, 130, 201)][SIZE=5]A championship-level culture is now in place with UConn men thanks to vision of Dan Hurley[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B][/URL] [/QUOTE]
