About four hours before tip-off, Hurley was seen walking around with a lit sage throughout the court.
According to CBS Sports Network, this ritual isn’t new. Hurley started burning sage pregame back when he was coaching at the University of Rhode Island. At URI, he started putting sage in the left corner because they kept being beat in the left corner by buzzer beaters — and it worked.
It’s been a staple for Hurley ever since.
Is Dan Hurley’s pregame ritual a secret to the UConn men’s success?
