I think almost all of his ire is aimed at refs (with good reason a lot of the time). Agree his responses are only egging some idiots on. Although when you start messing with a lady who is the man's wife you are WAY OUT OF BOUNDs and asking for it. No coaches wife or any other woman deserves that. If your going to be jerk find a man to pick on.
I can tell you for a fact as a witness that’s exactly what happened a Providence fan in his 60s was yelling obscenities at Hurley couldn’t hear it from where I was but easily dude the guy was all liquored up.
No. But Danny looked like a fool
It would be profoundly embarrassing for the school, players, fans, and most importantly Dan, if he beat the piss out of some loser calling him names. This is a very unserious suggestion.
I had no issue with it.
Probably the same imbecile that I saw a video of yesterday. He was leaning over a railing, yelling at UConn fans about what an Hurley is, what scumbags (or something similar) UConn fans are and started challenging people to fight. Then he got into it with some guys who must have been employees of the AMP (had hanging passes around their necks) who from appearances were just trying to calm him down (they were by the tunnel, he was leaning over the rail). Then he continually turned around, stuck his backside out and pointed to it while yelling "kiss my ass". The guy had to be my age (I'm 63). What an embarrassment.
If she is being verbally harassed in person, the move is still to go to security. If she isn’t there and the drunk is saying 4th grade stuff about her, ignore him. If he looks to fight, call security.
Did you see the clip that we're discussing? He was surrounded by security personnel, he remained very calm (wasn't screaming or getting heated) and basically disarmed the situation (as opposed to escalating it) by calling the guy out.
But what if you have security help? Hurley said what he said in the heat of the moment responding like any human being would it was quick and he got his guys off the floor.
He was giving a “come on” motion to the guy. Directly reacting to him. Exactly what the guy wanted. Ignore the jerk.
Where I differ is Hurley let a drunk get to him. It really doesn’t matter what the guy said. His father yelling at him would be more upsetting.
Your reading too far into this you weren’t there.
if a fan hops the railing, all bets are off
These weren’t normal circumstances I would be shocked completely shocked if we see this type of interaction from Hurley in any upcoming games, this is a place where his wife was spit on.
Yeah. How stupid it is for a coach to woof back.
did you see the brother of the LSU player hop the scorer's table after Cordoza leveled his sister?
Yes of course anything can happen anywhere sadly, but it shouldn’t stop your abilility for function and be yourself. Should we just ban cars because accidents happen and ban alcohol because people can’t handle their alcohol. Hurley was literally walking off the floor he was waiting for his players to get off the court.
It's not the one drunk idiot that would charge and he'd drop. It's the 50+ after that are going to charge that puts himself, the athletes, the staff and every UConn fan in the stands in harms way because once a punch is thrown you can't get 10,000 people that have been drinking to behave rationally. People could storm and bust the doors down on the way to the locker room.
Take a chill pill.
You're the p**sy that wouldn't stick up for your own wife.
The guy doesn’t even know Hurley’s wife. It’s a drunk yelling stupid stuff. You must be 12 years old.
