Apparently got into it with some UConn fans after the game last night. To be honest, Hurley’s just gotta let this stuff slide…personally think it’s a bad look. Has happened with fans of other teams and now UConn fans:
The horn had put an end to the UConn men’s basketball team’s ugliest performance of the season Tuesday night, a 59-55 loss to Creighton, and some fans in the upper bowl of an emptying XL Center loudly articulated their feelings as coach Dan Hurley headed to toward the tunnel.
So Hurley stopped. He engaged. He became animated. Hurley waved for the fans to come toward him. At least one fan made the same gesture.
“A couple of fans were yelling ‘[Bleep] you, Hurley, you suck,” said Hurley, who headed to the locker room after a heated exchange of about 10 seconds. “So I yelled back at them. If you’re going to yell at me, and you’re 100 feet away, behind layers of people — that’s some coward [stuff]. But I understand. It’s part of the deal. But I’ll say, too, that you may hear something back from me. I won’t just walk away.”
