He is second to none. He loves these kids and would run through a wall for them. This doesn't go unnoticed.

The great thing is that it truly goes both ways. Hurley’s players would all run through a wall for him as well. Total commitment to excellence across the board among players and staff alike. This is why I believe that this program is set up for future success.

Sad to see him gone but I told everyone at the beginning of the year to enjoy him while he is here as he is gone. Thanks Hawkins for bring us a championship. You have such a beautiful fast release on your shot reminiscent of another UCONN Great, Ray Allen. I'm so happy to see in person play as you were such a treat and thanks again for helping UCONN bring home their 5th National Championship. You will be missed!!!

I know people said he doesn't create enough but he did show it during the regular season at times this part of his game and will flourish well in the NBA with their more open rules for the offensive player. He has the athleticism to improve that part of his game.

People will remember the total dominace when thinking back on this teams championship run. To me, the first thing that comes to mind will always be the Hawkins 3 with 5 minutes to go. That shot, an incredibly difficult one, sealed the title. Congrats Hawk and thanks for the memories!

I was going to say this if no one else did.

SDSU were going on a run like they did in their previous game and threatening to turn our magical Tournament into a missed opportunity, and Hawkins snuffed it out with an unbelievably clutch 3 that we really needed to have in that moment.
 
Dude really showed his athleticism this year, went from an okay defender to a true defender and he has to keep that up to make a mark in the pros. Hopefully he ends up somewhere where they know they need to draw up sets for him to get open, but early on he’s gonna love the fact that the other team won’t be concerned with him in the least. Has to be fun to go from a focal point of the opposing teams defensive scheme, to just a guy out there

I cant really get upset at that.

And I adore Adama. Timme had an incredible college career as has (it might not be done yet) Adama. Timme has some skills. Just because we whooped him in a single game doesn't devalue an incredible college career.

I think they have similar NBA deficiencies. I just think Sanogo's skillset and strength translate a little better. Plus Timme annoys the hell out of me. :)

They both have upsides. Adama Stronger and better footwork, Timme taller, better passer and shooter. It's a shame the NBA doesnt value either out of 5's. They are both incredible players.

I just told my Dad and he was like "OH NO!!!!!!! I thought he was at least going to come back for his junior year!" It's as if he's been in a coma for 30 years.

He's a women's fan, isnt he?

My parents love the men too, and have been going to both for 35 years, but when it comes to this stuff my mom will say "why cant they stay all 4 years like those nice girls." They are 81 now but I remember my dad saying that too when Donyell left as a Junior in 94. LOL
