Luke Murray and BC?

[RuffRuff]

Also saw some media types saying that North Carolina should take a run a Hurley.

Would be kinda cool seeing him turn down every blue blood.

Hurley’s persona-non-grata to UNC cuz a) he’s too bombastic and perhaps equally important, his last name.

TBH, if UNC had stones they would’ve interviewed Luke.

Although anecdotaly, it seems like UNC (and UK) fanbases like Hurley and UConn more than others. Of course that might partially be due to how we slap around Duke.

Rudy Gay and his son were right behind the UConn bench. So I guess this means Rudy will be an assistant next year and his son will be student manager?

Hurley Sr was there too. I hear he's in the running as well.

I hear rumors he's in the running for the UNC job 😆

I love Taliek, but I don't want him as Luke's replacement. St. John's whole strategy is abandon high school players in favor of transfer portal guys. Pitino - at his age - doesn't want to spend the time developing a culture and program but rather building a new roster year-after-year.

To that end, I'm very skeptical that Taliek can do well on the high school recruiting front. We need a guy who is well connected on the AAU circuits. I think of Taliek a lot like I viewed Kevin Freeman. I wasn't in love with that hire even though he was a UConn guy.

God I hate that flipping school, but I wish him every bit of luck. He's put us all in an awful position having to root for his success with those buttheads.

Remember, the more success he has, the faster he moves on to a less detestable school.

Ironically, thats ABOUT the same crowd size they get at every home game.

 

[The Viking]

This is disgusting. Of all the schools had to be this one

 

[BrassBonanza]

watching his intro press conference at BC now - he is so polished and well prepared already - BC got a great one.

 

[uchusky32]

No one’s ever goes to that arena. How will anybody see it?

They really did. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he's our head coach someday.

Luke is going to be the next coach at the University of Connecticut.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

I'm really going to miss this guy.

 

[NJHusky]

he said he was in Boston all day yesterday and today....that's a lot of time away from prep for a Natty

Wonder if Tom will be more involved this week

 

[jibsey]

I hope we can get someone as good to take his place

that will be tough....I'd be happy with 85%

Luke had the Duke scout which means Kimani would likely have the Illinois scout anyway. Doubt it's having any impact on their prep

Kimani has the illinois plan and Luke would have the next game of they keep alternating. Im assuming the next 3 days its all business and he gets his ass back to work

As navery said

Obviously. But it’s still 2 full days away from prep. I’m sure if he dint have the job he would have been working on game prep and practice not lounging by his pool
Monday and Tuesday

I would be shocked if he isn't doing the scout as well. He isn't at practice/walkthroughs/whatever....but I have no doubt that Luke can figure out how to balance this without impacting his commitments.

I would be really sad to lose Mamadou too. He’s been a staple basically since his injury as a player

if he’s being considered for an assistant job he needs to take it. He’s not getting lukes spot.

Sorry, after next Monday, LM is dead and buried.
I think he made a mistake in this, BBall will never be the priority there, and the athletic administration is inept, to be kind.
Wishing them continued irrelevance.
