Some Guy: UConn close to signing Hurley

[brasssbonanzaa]

Eh, let's not run circles around the URI fans. They lost their best hope at becoming a national program, and they're going to be understandably upset.

Instead, let's run circles around Pitt fans.

How do we feel about $3.1 million / year and in all likelihood we've also ponied up for a stronger assistant pool? Is it sustainable?

 

[tcf15]

We're gonna look like idiots when ADB's source was wrong

we're already idiots

 

[brasssbonanzaa]

I still need Jonathan Willingham to confirm.

 

[KingAG]

I mean, we'd be the same way and I've got absolutely nothing against URI. I feel bad for them and hope their next coach does a great job, keeps getting them to the tourney etc.

Absolutely. I totally get it. But I don’t feel bad, they’ve been putting us down for 2 days. Reality Check

This is bigger than just a coach for us

 

[SouthBayHusky]

I heard DB and Susie asked Danny if he wouldn’t mind waiting another week or so while they wrap up the national coaching search.

If an 170 page thread about basically nothing doesn’t prove that lol

I have nothing against URI, will always root for them as a NE team.
Their denial is mildly entertaining though.

And some people call UConn a donor hole! We are UConn!!!!!!

oh yeah

This thread deserves a permanent sticky

Dunno why we never had a HOF threads section. For posterity.

This is where I’m at. I feel genuinely bad for them...the ones I ran into here in town last week were just really excited for their team to be there and enjoying the experience. Seems like a good fan base.

Pitt on the other hand? Let it burn.

 

[KingAG]

The pride is back. I love it. I’m ready for the season to start tmmrw lol

 

[AdamaNation]

Okay okay. Now for some flash sleuth reporting. Any thoughts from the roster? It’s been about 45 minutes so they should be aware. Get going and find something out!!!!!!!

 

[FLhusky91]

I had to catch up and read from page 102 to page 169. Well worth it!!! #casualfan

 

[Austin316]

This feels like the ball just dropped on New Years!

If I broke out the Texas bellringer and the scoop is wrong...I'm gonna be furious.

You don't just bust that out willy nilly.

Ant you were insinuating you knew something earlier - can you elaborate on that now?

dude we have recruiting to look forward to before that. let's hope for Jermaine Harris.

 

[lavuuk153]

Ok now I’m nervous again...

This thread deserves a permanent sticky

With all the GIF's of Randy Marsh in here already and to come, it's sticky enough.

Oh yea I got ahead of myself lol

And some people call UConn a donor hole! We are UConn!!!!!!

With all the highly successful students going through a top public college for the last 25-30 years there is no doubt lots of money from donors available.

Better be, cause it's the new normal. For good candidates anyway.

What happens when a team becomes good though, is other good young coaches want to take the reins. URI is legit for its conference and size. There are plenty of good ast coaches from big time programs that could keep it going there and even some up and comers.

 

[BlueMAB]

this reminds me of somebody but I can't quite put my finger on who.....

 

[Robertelamin]

Nice work phil.

I just read the tea leaves. Fishy’s Bob Marley video along with the cryptic tweets gave me the hunch
