Dan Hurley Gone ..!!!

[98Uconn]

I picture Hurley and Bouknight sitting in a room together somewhere watching this game and commiserating about referees.

 

[HooperScooper]

Even Raff and Kuegler said the ref should have looked the other way on the 2nd tech.

 

[krinklecut]

It was a bad job by the refs but also by him. In a big game like this, you have to stay in control.

Pumping up the crowd is losing control?

One of the biggest games of the year. Coach gets tossed being a jackass. People blame the ref. The Yard.

The second tech was some Joe West “look at me” bullisht and if you think otherwise you are a straight up clown.

The first T was called from 70 feet away.

95% of Uconn Nation fell in love with Hurley tonite. The other 5% did too but they still maintain that it's a bad look. Ha

Question for the board. Was Hurley allowed to coach in the locker room at halftime? Or did he have to leave the arena? What are the rules when you get thrown out before halftime?

You have to leave the bench and go to the locker room……,or sneak into student section.

Hell the 1st T was pretty weak too if you ask me, but the 2nd give me a break man that was ridiculous. I loved Sanogo coming in, great moment though.

The double T later seemed like weak calls too. I dunno, this was another crazy game. I'll take that W it feels great.

 

[Jaydumo20]

BREAKING NEWS: people on the Nova board claiming that the refs were giving the game to uconn.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Definitely spoke with the ref before the game and said throw me out. Great strategy

 

[UCLJ0211]

From UConn WBB Great Stewie

Better than a weak e rection

Here's the thing, if you call that second T on Hurley, then you have to call it every time someone tries to hype up the crowd. If you don't, then you look like you had something personal on him. If you do, we'll then good luck getting any reffing assignment again

You have to look it not as an isolated thing. He was definitely doing it for showmanship and the refs weren't dealing with his childish manners. Hurley could of lost this game for us and he should be ashamed. Sorry he has been too hot headed before and he knows he has to have a cooler head in these situations.

 

[tcf15]

He should just copy/paste Bouknight’s apology into his Notes app and tweet it out. Should appease all the curmudgeons out there.

 

[bballnut90]

One of the worst ejections I've seen...since when is hyping up the crowd grounds for a technical?

 

[Jaydumo20]

This from the Nova Board:
"what a joke...You can contend for titles or storm the court. You can't do both. Uconn made their choice."

 

[spudzj6]

Stackhouse for Vanderbilt gave the refs a ton of gripe during a timeout tonight, commentators give the refs props to have restraint and let him rant without a tech. Our coach gets tossed for amping the crowd. Yet both refs will get nothing from their respective leagues. One should get praise, one should be reprimanded. Both go home tonight and both ref again another night. Accountability and standardization need to be addressed.

 

[RichZ]

Donny Marshall's sarcastic clapping against PC was worse.

Close, but it didn't get him ejected, so no, not worse.

You can coach at halftime. Can't leave locker room.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Hurley's first technical was stupid on his part. His second technical was completely unwarranted.

 

[Viet Vet]

Even Raff and Kuegler said the ref should have looked the other way on the 2nd tech.

Is it the ref's job to "look the other way"? Do you want a ref to "look the other way" when a foul/violation is committed?
