So what do we know about Hurley?

Well, we sure as hell know he likes UCONN. If this is true:

URI's offer, per sources, was $2 million per year for seven years beginning in July 2019, with a commitment to build a basketball-only practice facility to be completed within the next two years, along with staff salary increases and the ability to charter for all away games.

That was his wish list.

I liked John Cheney, because you could tell how far along the game was and how Temple was doing based on his various phases of undress on the sideline. During those epic battles with UMass, I could have sworn he'd end up in his skivvies, sleeveless undershirt (Dare I not say the colloquialism), and black socks.

Someone clue me in: who is the big bearded dude above? I honestly thought it was a selfie when @huskyniner posted it yesterday.

I mean I was pretty big in my college years. Eating a Hangar 1 from Wings Over and drinking 20 beers every Friday/Saturday night will do that to you.

He is somebody that Uconn Nation should be thrilled to have

His animation on the side lines reminds me of Mitch Buonagaro when he coached at Fairfield U. I once saw him get a technical for celebrating a little too much on the sidelines for the refs. So they T'd him up and the technical lost the game for them. It's probably on YouTube somewhere.

Who was a finalist for the UConn job when JC got it. It's all tied together.

Didn't Chaney challenge Calipari to a fist fight? Or if I remember correctly, threatened to kill Calipari.

"I'll kill you...I'll kick your ass, I'll kick your ass"

Something else I just realized about Hurley that perhaps should have been more obvious to me than it was: he wants to win a National Championship worse than we do.

That is a great thing.
