Anyone watching URI?

Two FTs outta that guy are a bonus.

Oh I didn’t realize that Hurley’s hype wasn’t connected to how his team plays.

His team is 25-7 and about to win a tourney game. I don’t understand your point

Hoping URI wins. Makes the Duke game a must-watch next round.

But but but...Iona! Interesting to watch the kid from Hartford EJ Crawford on Iona. I know his father.

Just checking the score from time to time. Every time I check URI has just hit a FT. Accurate or coincidence?

Accurate.

Young is terribly overrated IMO. He also needs to figure out that hair.

 

[Excalibur]

Yep he won some games in the NEC and had a couple of good seasons in the A-10.

This team peaked 6 weeks ago and can’t even finish off a team that went t!ts up in January.

Good effort to minimize the larger sample and focus on the smaller one.

First time in URI history they've won a tourney game in back-to-back seasons. And this year was the first time they've ever won the A-10 regular season.

Hurley's not a perfect coach, but he's certainly taken this program to new heights.

 

[BLUEDOGHOUSE]

They do seem to have trouble closing.

They closed!

That his team didn’t play well down the stretch of the season or late in recent games is a bit of a red flag. I’ve been watching them longer than the last 2 and a half
hours.

Great that they finally closed this one out.

I like the guy and if that who we get - that’s pretty good news. Just a bit of a disappointing pool of candidates.

Months...

You're way over-stating.

In the past 2 months they are 13-4. Throw out the 1 complete brain-fart loss, and they lost the other 3 games by 3, 2, and 1 points. That's a total of 6 points in 3 games for those counting at home.

A-10 Champions. Runner up in the A-10 tournament.

Wrong about the first point..

Eh, this was an expected win. If they beat Duke then the price skyrockets.

Yeah it’s college basketball. The smaller sample size is what matters - I don’t make the rules but nobody gives a crap how you play in December and January.

 

[Uconn77Duke74]

Amazing how much better Hurley looks after a tourney win.

 

[Travelman6]

By by over rated Oklahoma who had no business even being here.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Switching to Jayhawks, as they do their usual sleepwalk against a #16.

 

[kobe]

They badly choked away the game to Oregon in the R32 last year. Let's see if the fare better versus Duke.

Kansas first half STUNK. They'll roll by 20+ though.

 

[fatlucy]

I thought that was a solid win. Well managed. They kept their heads and played well.

They are going to get destroyed. Talent mis-match is immense.

 

[Deleted member 3149]

The URI staff is incredibly sharp. That's how you coach a game from beginning to end...something we've lacked for a while now.

Missing out on Danny Hurley would be a massive loss. We need him in Storrs, and we need him now.

Bagley alone can beat URI
