Raise the flag!

Fake, those are boxer briefs not boxers

Seriously, who didn't see this coming

Thank you Andrea for keeping him grounded

And thank you Bob Sr, for instilling loyalty

We have our boy

I mean why can’t coaches get nil deals?

They can, endorsements.

 

[milards]

Stewie’s dad know something? I think so.

 

[Rich]

So The Athetic reports the L.A. offer was six years @ 70MM. And with that 13.3% top marginal Cali tax rate…..sheesh. They basically offered him peanuts to run the circus.

That’s a FAR cry from nine figures, and arguably just not worth leaving purely on the financial bird-in-the hand he has presently, without any renegotiation.

This decision was easy.

 

[auror]

and all UConn Men’s Basketball got out of it was a couple of lousy championships!

the specifics of the deal are really good for the program as a whole

Is the new deal done-done?

 

[F101Voodoo]

It’s official

“https://www.foxsports.com/stories/college-basketball/dan-hurley-staying-uconn-turns-down-lakers-head-coaching-job”.

Ok back to work all you non retired schmoes

 

[UCfor3]

We were wrong!!!! Thank Christ

Lol Ecstatic over here.

 

[Stew Crew]

Is the new deal done-done?

Cowherd says he has an offer but discussions are continuing.

 

[Fishy]

Is the new deal done-done?

No, but close enough for government work.

And that was a really weak ass offer by the Lakers.

Archive this , lets move on

Yeah, God forbid we let folks be happy for a little while.

 

[storrsroars]

We were wrong!!!! Thank Christ

You were wrong. I never doubted.

He's not gonna consider leaving until after he fails to win an NC.

In a straitjacket

Last four days everyone waiting to hear from @superjohn, I believe you were in a straight jacket figuratively.

My guess you knew what was really going down and had to stay away just to make sure you did not slip up.

@bjc42 this is one of the members you were asking about last Friday.

 

[uh-no]

No, but close enough for government work.

And that was a really weak ass offer by the Lakers.

this whole thing was a bit TOO contrived. hurley and his agent played this one to a T. everyone comes out looking good and uconn and hurley are the center of the world in the middle of the NBA finals.

Fanta acted like a total amateur since the news broke on Thursday and for a guy who has always acted like he's all about the Big East he was giddy pushing Hurley out the door to LA. I like the guy but sheesh this was a bad look.

His rep took a hit with a lot of people. You played it better than he did. This was one of those news stories that could make someone look foolish and Fanta played right into it.

UConn against the world bro

 

[ihatepants]

I see Lakers fans are taking this news well:

 

[Jimdish255]

Dan is staying per ESPN

They must be having a wake over there.

 

[ctbro1999]

Some people need to apologize to Geno now.

 

[RollSkis]

Alright next rivalry match is up UConn versus Mansfield Planning and Zoning

Nah, needs to get to 5k first. Even if it loses a little steam, I'm sure we can derail it with an argument about ketchup or something and get it over the finish line.

Welcome back Coach!

 

[F101Voodoo]

Anyone know if there is going to be a news conference..
