Do you think Hurley knew?

I am nobody's water boy. I do not carry Kevin Ollie's water.

Every claim you make to the contrary makes you look even more unintelligent.

I hope you get your issues worked out - based on our interactions here, there seem to be a lot of them.

I have the issues? You’re the one who feels the need to attack other posters and try to assert your superior intelligence at every turn. You have serious issues and I won’t waste another ounce of my energy arguing with you Waterboy.

It’s been the elephant in the room this entire time. St John’s is playing Duke on national tv and having a good season, Villanova has 2 titles in 3 years, etc.. We need to abandon the pipe dream of being relevant nationally in football and find a way to get back into the Big East where the rivalries and the geography will make sense.

Are we going to have enough scoring next year? I think a lot of it depends on how good Bouknight is. I expect him to start.

You told us UConn would never get a coach better than Kevin Ollie. You were flat out wrong and need to own that. You chastising ANYONE else is absurd.

I've admitted multiple times I am glad to have been wrong about UConn's ability to attract a decent coach this past offseason. I've already owned it. (Although, you conveniently ignore that all throughout the 2017-18 season, I adamantly maintained that UConn needed to make a coaching change regardless of how good the new coach ended up being.).

I will continue to chastise people who tell straight up lies about me (like you) and have nothing better to do than relive past KO arguments like overgrown manchildren (again, like you). This whole exchange started when your buddy made the ridiculous claim that wearing diamond earrings is an indicator of a bad work ethic. That claim is patently stupid on its face, and every poster with a pulse should be chastising him for making it. It says a lot about you that you are far more bothered by me criticizing a terrible argument than the terrible argument itself.

You think earrings tell you things about someone's work ethic. If your brain is telling you that, it does not work correctly.

Carlton is doing OK, improved over last season. We have no other front court players ready or able to contribute to an NCAA team. That includes Sid for the moment. Our star, disappears for key stretches and the entire team is subject to lapses at both ends far to frequently.

With essentially the same squad, we are visibly better and no longer losing by double digits to teams we shouldn't ever lose. We still don't understand it take 40 minutes of sustained play to win games. Matching teams score for score and turnover for turnover is not a winning pattern. You need to dictate play for a majority of the game. This team has no idea on how to do that.

Practice and personnel changes are the only way out. I would be concerned if this team isn't in the NCAA next season. An NIT berth should be the benchmark this year for disappointment.

Not only did Hurley know what he was getting into, he publicly stated he loves the challenge of taking on a rebuilding project and turning things around. Facing facts, he was fully aware that there is a ceiling on what can be accomplished by an A-10 team, and he knew he was bumping up against it at URI. UCONN offered him a new challenge and opportunity to take things beyond that A-10 ceiling. We've done it before and he believes he can get us there again, despite the shortcomings of our current roster of players. He's looking at the long term future.

Yes, this. It drives him nuts during the process, but the ability to look back at how far they’ve come (and he will be successful at UConn) makes it worth it in the end.

Again with the phuking earrings? Omg! I said it was a lasting image, should I elaborate so your brain can comprehend? He was a student athlete who hadn’t completed the school year yet but was sitting courtside down in South Beach with HUGE, expensive diamond earrings in. The earrings aren’t that important thing, I just thought that whole look said something about his mindset and wasn’t surprised when he didn’t cut it in the NBA. Maybe he truly wasn’t good enough. I think you might have an earring fetish.

No I doubt it. He took the job because he figured he would walk into a Final Four or better in his first season.

Now it's just silly that you haven't changed your handle, but instead stay in your peeing contest after saying you're done. It's almost as bad as a team's leading scorer not showing up to play against weak competition, on the verge of a challenging stretch of games.

If you've got ten toes, then use them. It's time.
 
Did UConn get turned down by that First Weekend Fryer Ed Cooley?
I don’t remember that happening, as Hurley was always the chosen one..
However, apparently they’re spinning the yarn than Cooley turned UConn down on the Holyland of Hoops.
Maybe I missed something?
(Apparently Willard turned down Pitt too. Don’t remember that either.)

He researched how many more things he could buy with his new paycheck.
