Is Hurley the guy?

[Connecticut13]

Yes I do believe in Hurley but it’s a fair question. This lack of offense is unacceptable. Still has a lot of season to get it together and this game as well. Was Diggins recruited to sit on the bench btw.

This is the first time I’m questioning whether he’s the right guy for the job. So far, he’s shown a great ability to recruit. His in-game coaching and preparation are suspect, to say the least.

OP has to shoulder some responsibility for this mojo debacle:

This is what I wanna see against Providence.

Oh ya this on me alright.

Yes. Very much yes.

He does need to be forced by the AD to learn more about offense. Idk how that happens but it must. This half court offense is unacceptable. The Xs and Os themselves are an embarassment. A JV coach in the CIAC could draw up better plays.

How do you force him to learn more about offense? He's been a D1 head coach for 12 years now, he brought in Murray who has the rep as an offensive coach, and has Calhoun and his dad to lean on.

Hurley has talked a big game but he's not backing it up.

AD needs to sit the staff down and set some expectations like this. Idk if that's kosher in high major D1 but it needs to happen.

isn't that a big part of what the 3 assistants are paid to do? are they too scared to speak up or does Hurley disregard what they have to say? it's gotta be one or the other and both are unacceptable.

Shut up

No I won’t shut up because I wanna see UConn play up to expectations and see improvement. I’m not gonna take these continuous offensive no shows and take it.

You guys are dopes. We have one decent guard. Been saying it for a year. Hawkins will be good but people forget some frosh take time. Some of you don't know what u are watching. Get DH for his team composition, it stinks, but nobody could coach this team to.decent offense.

Do you notice how much better we play when we run? Play in transition?

Do you notice that Hurley gets the pace and style of play dictated to him in almost every game?

Do you notice how rarely he makes adjustments, and how often other coaches make adjustments that take away our strengths?

What are you watching?

The four missed free throws by Cole and Martin, wow. It’s a two point game now if they knock those down, brutal.

And yes it’s not all on Hurley, and I do believe he is the guy although he has to prove it.

Wow. When I saw the title of this topic.....Wow....smh

Don’t feel intimidated, your post asked a very valid question. The culture and recruiting have been fantastic but during his tenure, offense and making adjustments have been constant issues. He needs to start proving he can win big games.
