Who said Hurley committed today? I thought the report said he was close to a deal...

Hurley will probably want things that URI cannot provide - more money, better facilities, etc. I'm hopeful that URI cannot come close to UConn's offer. But with all those $20.18 donations from URI fans, you never know.

 

[TheChamps990411]

I’m not sure what we did to them. They really don’t like us, the URI fan base. Maybe because we’ve claimed Hurley as our next head coach for a few months now and it irritated them.

Would you not have a problem if your gf/bf left you for someone else? I mean its not their fault but you wouldnt be fond of them.

 

[MattMang23]

Even deceased actors are weighing in?

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

They're just a good team right now, playing in a good league, and Mack is a good coach.

... if some rumors are correct, yes until Mack potentially leaves Xavier for Louisville

 

[tcf15]

Willard's been a sleeper candidate for a while so I'm hoping that Hurley and/or his agent already knew this before going for the UConn job. And Hurley seems to be enamored with UConn's history, which far outweighs that of Seton Hall's.

 

[RoderickSpode]

Don’t like this change in the narrative over the last hour or so.

When Tony Terzi tweets that Pitt has taken the lead in the Hurley sweepstakes, it’ll be time for full-blown panic.

The Ryan Center is nicer than Gampel, IMO.

Haven't seen a game there yet but it looks nice on TV.
But you have to go to Kingston to get there.

Game day facilities are for the fans, not the players. Players want state-of-the-art practice facilities. I think we got URI beat there...

 

[polycom]

And just like that no one knows anything

 

[AntG168]

LOL

 

[intlzncster]

Someone over on their board is now claiming Calhoun met with Hurley during the season and was "tampering."

LOL. Hurley has invited Calhoun to Kingston multiple times. Maybe they should sue Hurley for reverse tampering?

 

[80shusky]

I heard something about this earlier today on some media outlet or another. Given what Willard has built at Seton Hall the last couple of years it seems weird to me he would go to the Pitt dumpster fire. Is it a better job? I guess it gets him in ACC so you hold your nose, take it and hope you can rebuild it?

I was just about to post this.

Interesting twist.

 

[Lefty2one]

This whole situation smells funny now. As I said earlier today, we can't have nice things. I'm bracing for the worst.

Uhhh I remember that awful night. The board went from "what the fook would Al's son know?" to "Is he legit?" to "Holy Christ Tony Terzi" in an hour.

 

[Vuce]

Yup. I think he gets back to URI and he has difficulty saying good bye after they sweeten their offer. Getting ready for the kick in the nads.

 

[FDNY99]

Looks like it got erased...it was from golocalprov.com a site that breaks Providence and RI news...says Hurley leaving URI to take UConn job

I consider my life to consist of two distinct eras: Before and after Tony Terzi’s Tweet.
