Your personal vendetta against Francesca is playing out bizarrely in this thread. Everyone is universally praising the interview and you're in here typing like you're ready to call into Mike and the Mad Dog circa 1997 and chew him out. Get a new slant.

It’s a good interview and francesa is a d bag who often doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Both can be true.
 
If you had asked Francesca anytime during Mike and the mad dog’s time on air who would be the more successful of the two once jt ended, Mike would have bet the house it would be him. He was wrong. By a lot. I still find this funny.
 
Wow, that was great. you can tell at the end it meant A LOT to Danny to be on with Mike…he called it bucket list stuff!

also interesting how Mike touched on the fact that Miami basically bought a team to go the FF. Surprised that hasn’t been mentioned more…Maybe Boeheim was right

Yea, Mike's a great interviewer. Top of his game.

For me, Dan Hurley made that interview. The man reeks authenticity. In a world of fake and gay, he's a throwback. I truly hope he's right and there are still enough players and families out there that pick up what he's putt'n down in the Portal/NIL Brave New World. I believe there are. Enjoy the ride.

Francessa knows the sport and touched all the bases on this one. He can be good like this and an obnoxious egomaniacal jerk the next time but he usually defers and treats respectfully the famous and guess what? That's Danny now!
 
Mike was a lot more prepped than I thought he would be, pretty good interview. He was interrupting Hurley towards the end but sometimes those phone interviews are tough. And now Dan Hurley will be on Pardon My Take Friday, good publicity here recently for him and the program.
 
Mad Dog Russo has a son on the team staff?

I had significantly underestimated the degree to which Hurley is self-aware and open about his growth. As a fan, our view tends to be fairly static (i.e., he will always bicker unproductively with refs or work himself into a lather in a big moment) when it's obvious that he's working hard to grow.

for the wfan fans, hurley was also on john jastremski's new podcast. this was also a great interview:

Mets Comeback Falls Short, Yankees Rally Back to Even Series, Randle Returns, and Dan Hurley on UConn’s Title Run

Podcast Episode · New York, New York with John Jastremski · April 12, 2023 · 52m
podcasts.apple.com podcasts.apple.com

highlights include jj talking about his introduction to coach hurley back on staten island when hurley was with wagner college and hurley talking about all of the basketball/sports celebrities who have reached out to him over the past few weeks.
 
Dan’s always been this guy- emotional (obviously) but also very self deprecating and aware, always learning. He expects a lot of others and even more of himself. There’s more of a platform now (with national media types who don’t dislike him) and people are paying closer attention.
 
Francessa can do no wrong, even if mad dog was my guy. Those two are as much a part of my childhood as anything. Probably not two humans on earth apart from my family that I have listened speak more than them. That was a GREAT interview.
 
Great interview. Grew up with Mike and I'm definitely a mongo through and through, so was great to hear him have Hurley on.

Different podcast, but it seems like Dan is set after all on eventually coaching in the league. That would probably mean at least one more title though, so I’m not complaining…

Great interview. I’ll never forget when Mike and Chris went on the air immediately after our first championship in 99.

I remember listening to them the day after the game in 99. Mike was having such fun with the uconn fans. Every time the phones would stop ringing Mike would say “9 out of 10 times Duke beats Uconn” then the irate UConn fans light up the phones to argue with him.
 
Capitol Grille Hartford? “That’s where we get our blue chip talent to commit”. Can they really take recruits there or was he joking?

Seems they took Tristen to Capital Grill last year during his visit but I can no longer pull up the link, only the heading.
