Great quote from a UConn great in an article in The Athletic:
Former UConn star Ray Allen also had a message for Kentucky during the celebration late Monday night:
“I don’t know anybody who could be in a greater situation right now,” Allen told The Athletic. “In six years, he’s carved out an incredible niche here in Connecticut. It’s a great opportunity. And I was recruited by Kentucky, so Kentucky and Connecticut have always been programs that sort of paralleled themselves. But Hurley is our guy.
“And the people in Connecticut have embraced him, they love him. The thing that’s interesting is, success is success here because of Storrs, because of the kids you get here. Success is different at Kentucky, and that’s what Kentucky needs to look for: somebody that can build there in Kentucky. But this is UConn, this is Storrs, and Danny Hurley is our guy.”
