I love Danny, but….

[StllH8L8ner]

He’s bigger than this nonsense. Kinda funny, but let it go my man…

 

[OkaForPrez]

Comes with the package.

 

[HeGotGame]

Gutter of a state, gutter of a fan base.

I will say, their fans have much more fight than their players.

Glad we sent them to the NIT.

 

[tykurez]

Nah it’s fine. Especially that fan base and especially after the way they treated Andrea.

 

[imno1]

You had me at “I love Danny”.

 

[BlueMAB]

I don't see any issues with this.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

I see it both ways, he's only encouraging them or other opponents fans to say stuff because they know he'll act on it. I dont really have a problem with him reacting that way, i think a lot of us would but its like internet trolls, they are looking for a response, if you dont respond or pay them any attention, their power goes away.

 

[Kembacity]

I’m fine with the coach telling off a few rowdy pricks at away games, as long as it doesn’t really get out of control. I don’t want him to be threatening anyone, especially when we win. Just tell them to count your rings and walk out

You are absolutely spot on…
I think I would just point to scoreboard

It is probably personal with him. During a podcast at last year's Final Four, his wife said that she would never go back to Providence because Providence fans were spitting at her and throwing beer. She said something to the effect that if you were a Uconn fan and an balloon knot, "go up the road to Providence."





About 5 1/2 minutes in.

 

[Palatine]

The dude is on fire. Let Danny be Danny.

 

[husky429]

He's from Jersey--this is part of the deal. Embrace it. At least he's willing to back up the talk. Nothing worse than a big mouth who can't throw hands

[hardcorehusky]

Watch his post game press conference. He was reserved and at the end he throws in something to the effect of Go Huskys and Go Rhody!!!

 

[Matt1010]

I've never understood why fans can scream all sorts of obscenities at coaches and players but they are supposed to have zero reaction and just walk through the tunnel. Don't dish it if you can't take it, and as long as things don't get physical I have zero problem with the chirping.

 

[UofCT]

Providence fans will be really ticked off when Hurley steals Hopkins from them next month.

I love it. Let’s blame all of Dan Hurley’s flaws on Jersey. I hate it when he slows down the offense like it’s the Turnpike at the end of games!

 

[Waquoit]

I have an in-law that's telling me he doesn't like "the way Clingan behaves". I'm like, Clingan? Really? And I can't accuse him of being on dope like if he was on the Yard beause I don't need WWIII at home.

 

[TheShot1990]

You better get us now
I will knock you out
Come here! You'll get hurt
Shhhhhhhh

 

[TheRealKBuks]

F PC….and Duke.

 

[Tex-Lager93]

I laughed out loud when I saw the Providence guy yelling at him holding some flavor of Truly in his hand...a picture being worth a thousand words.

I mean he's thrown a "shush" or two I guess? Clingan comes off as a pretty decent guy to me.

Huskies are dogs, we fight. Just keep it clean and don't cost us games and I'm pretty OK with it.

 

[CL82]

And laugh.

Post/handle

 

[MexicoHusky]

Cant say i love the behavior. JC did some of the same stuff. Cant recall any stories of the police escort needing to tell JC to cool it.

Probably needs an assistant coach or someone else reminding him to chill as he enters/exits the arena.

 

[aburks41]

There is a reason why everyone considers the neanderthals in Providence to be the worst, most vile fanbase in sports. They deserved every second of this.

 

[NJHoops]

Twelve years is a long time to put up with PC fans’ nonsense. Do I think it‘s funny that those fans always piled on Hurley while insisting that their guy (Cooley) was a stand-up, phenomenal guy? And now they hate him, too? Yeah, I do. Hurley pulls the occasional jerk move on the court, but he’s legit a good person. We’re all works in progress.
