People can call Hurley not a good in game coach, we've seen it said here by many. Over the past few, we've seen him make some great calls when it comes to lineups closing out games. Today was no different. Gaffney didn't really have it. Gilbert didn't have it. The three headed monster of Bouknight, Vital and Adams seemed to gel and produce. Between Vital and Adams defense on Cinci's best player (Cumberland) some timely blocks/rebounds from the bigs UConn came out on top. If it wasn't for missed free throws, it would have been a comfortable win instead of a nail biter in overtime. Hurley has found the right match ups to give his team the best chance to win and they're executing.
I am duck** happy man. Today was awesome. I still haven't settled down since the final buzzer.
