Articles from this morning's Connecticut Basketball Coaches Breakfast (Hurley quotes)

“I don’t really know who is gonna start Monday night’s exhibition. At best I could say maybe 2-3 guys that would be starting, a lot of it is gonna be determined through Sunday,” Hurley said.

“You want to see people battling and earning their role. Literally, going into the year I think Alex (Karaban) is the only one that you looked at and just said, ‘This guy’s an automatic starter.’ I think you can make a case that every other starting spot needs to be earned. And they always have to be earned, but with so much roster turnover, there’s so much for people to compete for. You want to see that right now.”

Dan Hurley on what separates UConn from other programs, what he’s betting on as Huskies chase three-peat

Less than a month away from the 2024-25 season-opener, UConn men’s basketball coach Dan Hurley wants to see players separate themselves to earn a rotation spot.

Sorry about that. It works on all my home computers but for some reason when I do it at work it doesn't work. Any IT people know why?

From Dave Borges.

Typically, Hurley has played two closed-door scrimmages in preparation for the regular season. Due to the exhibition game, this year it will only be one, against Harvard, whom Hurley has scrimmaged behind closed doors since his days as URI's head coach.

"Just trying to get something done in public," Hurley said of the exhibition. "Something without a lot of travel, but we can simulate an overnight trip. Get some of the jitters out that you wouldn't normally get out until the opener. A chance to play at Mohegan, something we've tried to put something together to do."
