Hurley preparing for UConn's preseason game vs. BC next week

[HooperScooper]

From Borges. So what are you all looking for in next week's game? Is it still too early to look at lineups and combinations? Are you going to concentrate on certain players and how they've improved? Looking forward to seeing the freshmen in game situations? It's only an exhibition but it has to be worth something.

"It definitely feels early," Hurley said on Monday, following a Q&A alongside Geno Auriemma and hosted by ESPN's Seth Greenberg. "Strategically, you want to get one under your belt, identify certain things, and give yourself enough time to work at stuff before Michigan State. It feels early, the season starts early, but now you give yourself some time in between what it could look like at Mohegan to the one that's going to be right before the season starts."

It is in Boston on NBCSports Boston. Come on up and we'll have a watch party! 😀 Do Connecticut cable and streaming services have NBCSports Boston?

Someone mentioned that the URI game last year, which was also on NBCSports Boston, was simulcast on the UConn online station (forgot what it's called). If that is true I'd imagine they'll do the same this year but I haven't seen anything on that.

I’m hopping we can watch it on the NBC Boston website

Yeah Xfinity did that back in January. They took NESN and NBASports Boston off the regular cable tier and make you pay for a higher level cable package if you want those sports stations. The gym I go to refused to pay more so no NESN or NBCSports there. I've been to some bars that have done the same so no Sox or Celtics games there. Seems strange not to have the games from those 2 teams on at a local Boston bar.

More green for the games: Xfinity bumping NESN, NBC Sports Boston to pricier cable tier starting next week

Xfinity reached agreements with NESN, NBC Sports Boston to move the channels from its Popular TV package to its Ultimate TV level of service.

In Hurley’s defense, Calhoun also did book interviews leading up to a season.
