Hurley.

this tweet is going viral. amazing.

Oh my God. This is everything.

Edit: side note: we were surrounded by an amateur level of cuse fans tonight. Can't tell you how many were in the realm of "what a loser getting up off the bench" and "look at this nerd with the glasses ‍♂️" . There's so much projection and Cuse fans know they're absolutely cooked with that walking corpse who preaches grade school schemes as the coach but they won't admit it

Does my heart good... guess they were expecting stink face.

I remember Ollie cheering on our guys during our championship run and imploring them to play great defense. I then remember Ollie sitting on his hands and accepting lackluster play. I hope Hurley keeps this coaching style up and doesn’t change no matter what anyone says. Clearly the players enjoy playing for him so far. They are all playing their hearts out for him.

Pre-divorce/post-divorce.

Hurley is for real. Chip off the old block.

At one point I pointed out to my buddy that Hurley was about to trap a Cuse player in the corner.

I think I need to add McAllister to the group that I gave the "Sour Farmhouse Ale" award to in my Brew's Clues thread. What a whiner!

[BlueMAB]

Iowa is going to catch these hands too

FIFY

Inject Hurley getting into it with Cronin into my veins.

I read the umass hoops board out of habit, they hated Hurley like they hated JC.

Do they still complain about Calhoun ducking Calipari & UMess???

[BlueMAB]

That said, if Hurley is a God, what does that make Calhoun?

The Godfather.

"They (UConn) played hard. We're not that kind of team." - Jim Boeheim

And wow at some of those comments he made.

This and when he said “they’re gonna do that to a lot of guys” and referred to us as a hard working/tough team. Amazing to think of the adjectives used in there first 3 games vs the last few seasons with a. Lot of returning guys. We were NOT this team in the past.

Hurley is going to toe the line on sideline behavior a lot, and opposing fans are going to hate him for it.

And I'm not going to care . . .

As long as he provides more clips like tonight. I'm sure that raised more than a few recruits' eyebrows. Who wouldn't want to play for that man?

They have been beaten down into oblivion. I think they made the tourney once since 96? Although everyone one of those guys would wash Cal's car with their tongue.

The thing I appreciated most about DH this game was his T.O recognition. With a veteran team w/ a winning base, you can let them play thru runs & things. This team right now isn’t that team. I thought momentum wise it seemed he called timeouts at the perfect time and the team responded accordingly

 

[g_smith]

Does anyone have a GIF of Hurley giving the “SHHH” to the cuse fans?

The thing I appreciated most about Dan Hurley this game was his T.O recognition. With a veteran team w/ a winning base, you can let them play thru runs & things. This team right now isn’t that team. I thought momentum wise it seemed he called timeouts at the perfect time and the team responded accordingly

I was saying today, KO would call TOs when we were down 8+ points while Hurley called it when our lead got to 8 points. Whole different culture. A WINNING culture.

 

[UC Billy]

What great energy. I just don't understand how KO could not get this team to play

 

[Ewekon]

I think that’s when I started to cry

Honest. I had tears in my eyes.

And that was the difference in the Ollie years. Pre-divorce and post divorce Kevin were two different guys.

I guess this guy never saw JC or Geno in their younger days. We’re a fan base that likes feisty coaches

 

[B1GEast]

The guy loves his team, the fans and the university. You couldn't ask for more. I love his passion, he gets the team going.
