Message: [QUOTE="UChusky916, post: 2689842, member: 1222"] Here's what I don't understand from this weak article about the potentially 'fractured' UConn family... There were rumblings that Calhoun and KO had their issues. KO started the fracture by distancing himself from Calhoun. And Calhouns quotes about KOs firing spoke volumes about how their relationship had deteriorated. Calhoun is the real reason for the UConn family. He started it. There is no UConn family without him. And it sounds like he's probably going to be more visible now with KO out of the picture since KO did a lot to distance himself from his former coach, mentor, and the man who went to bat for him, basically gift-wrapping the HC job for him. KO fractured the family with those actions more than anything resulting from his firing. And it's clear Hurley respects the UConn tradition/family, harping on it on his introductory press conference and in every interview I've heard from him since. Not only that, but keeping Freeman and bringing back Moore was smart and saavy. Those quotes from Burrell definitely sound like whining. You don't know who to call for tickets? Boo-hoo. Pick up the phone and make some calls to the university and I'm sure you won't get ignored. You just sound lazy. [/QUOTE]
