I've Seen Enuff...HURLEY IS GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dove]

He’s obviously a good coach and let’s face it, he has enough talented guards to make this happen. We’re going to find out pretty soon too.

Jalen absolutely needs to start games wide awake. Can't afford no-shows in the first half.

There's a lot of that going around. UConn has to get better right quick and gain some younger fans. The base is getting old and crotchety.[/QUOTE



Actually, the base has gotten crotch and scratchity.

 

[Excalibur]

Let's not forget that Wilson, Yakwe, and Diarra didn't play. The margin of victory with those guys would've been more that 10

The margin would have been bigger if Whaley didn’t get hurt in the first half. He would have kept Harris more in check in the second half.

Schwing!!!

Schwing!!!

3 schwing passes after that low block double team for the open 3. Beautiful game when played right.

Hurley is definitely changing the culture. This does not look like last year’s team and that’s a good thing. These guys are fun to watch

Energy level, defensive intensity, ball and player movement is signficantly better. I don’t know if we can hang with the best but we should be gritty and competitive. Still need to get better down low on the boards.

No joke, I just woke up and saw the score and thought it was the women's game so i went to check the women's stats and saw a different score.

The only explanation was that ESPN has screwed up - it took a little while before I realized it was the men.

Nice to see a true rout!

I'd be worried if the Women's team only beat UMKC by 28...

But I still love your reaction!

Hurley is a preacher, not God yet. Our church is growing though and I'm still a member. I will say his choir (team) is heavenly right now.

Remember Calhoun is still around, and we can only have one.

That was my favorite play of the game. Even Vital passed up a relatively open 3 to pass it around to the weak side for an even more open 3. Now that's basketball.

This is it. We see what we’re gonna get in terms of effort and defense. Whether we can make that into something elite remains to be seen.

Are you referring to the Yakwe outlet from down low to the top of the arc and then the whip arounds to the corner for the trey?

That was the one I was assuming he was talking about.

Yup. Gorgeous basketball.

 

[Yup!]

This dude has crazy energy and definitely knows how to connect with these kids. Can’t wait for that Syracuse game.

Edit: This was after the Morehead st game, and look at how they came out against UMKC

Lovin' Coach Hurley. Question though. Why does he look down during the press conference? Is he looking at notes? The only not-so-good-look I have seen from him.

The sense I get from Hurley, he’s never satisfied. No matter how much they win by. He’ll get hyped after a win, but then it’s back to business. Reminds me of Geno.

I think he's just thinking/concentrating. Writers need a soundbite and a response, not eye contact. It's a tad odd to see on TV, but I personally couldn't care less. Last thing a coach is thinking about after a game is where the TV camera is as the back of the room.
