im sorry but anyone who turns down tripling their salary is an idiot.

From the URI board lol

Was really hoping his username was 'throat boy'.

 

[brasssbonanzaa]

Just a side note, but does this page indicate that JC is part of the Teachers' Union as well? Too funny if so

shh dont tell anyone uconn doesnt know that

It costs more $ to move the program forward than it does to give him a raise. They can’t do either.

 

[Hi-Low]

It’s a done deal. Hurley just needs to make it official on his own terms i.e. tell URI himself rather than having them hear it from the media. We have nothing to be worried about.

Why is UConn "on the verge" lately.....I was convinced were in the ACC until we weren't, Diallo was scheduling classes until he wasn't, so I'll hold off buying the Hurley "it's a done deal" narrative until the press conference with the words coming out of Hurley's mouth.....it's not a done deal until then.

Every 20 minutes when WFAN reports "UConn is likely to name Hurley the new coach" it just feels like the kiss of death.....almost assuming now it's not going to happen.

Just blowing smoke I think. Has anyone (signed up to) call him out?

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

Screen shots folks, screen shots! Copy, paste in paint, save, upload.

Dislike.

I’m so tired of it.

Content, content, content.

"Moving the program forward?" WTF does this even mean?

Get URI into the AAC?

My buddy's brother is at UConn now and sat behind two basketball players on the bus. Overheard them making fun of KO and talking about being excited about Hurley

Investing the millions of dollars into a new practice facility, ass't coaches salaries, and chartered flight - which as everyone knows they do not have the money to do now nor in the future

ACC*

They're the next expansion target. With UMass. Package deal.

Liar. UCONN basketball players only use scooters for transportation.

Was this at the bus wash? Sorry, I'll just be off....

When you can stay at the second best basketball program in Rhode Island for less money. You do it!

Hope those guys on the bus get 13 years in the NBA and coach a NCAA title. Chances aren’t very good!

Right. That's kind of what I was getting at. They've done all that for him in his other extensions before. So they're going to need to come up with some other ideas to "move the program forward" in the next 24 hours or he's gone.

Liking this for the being excited about Hurley part. Hopefully it's Jalen and CV and not walk-ons.

Vital was instagram live earlier today posting videos of some poor sap in new balance trainers trying to guard Jalen in the rec center. I bet it was him and he’s bitter.

No article with that. Just a photo with the text

And, Hurley's looking at the little-followed tweeter and his tweet funny.

Post-signature ink drying on Hurley's UConn contract, DH and his family embarking on their 90 minute drive from Kingston/East Greenwich to Storrs, and DH completing his "UConn's new men's hoop coach" news conference, more than a few of us will be convinced the hoops' program remains mired in the last few years of despair. C'mon AD David Benedict, onward and upward ... go Huskies!

You do know where Rhode Island is right?
