Some Guy: UConn close to signing Hurley

[RMoore1999]

I remember the audience was being super racist and super anti-Islam that game.

Huge win. One of my favorite ever. And excuses his antics after the game IMHO.

No excuse necessary. Nothing wrong with a little ole fashioned swagger. Without it, we don't shock the world (4 times).

 

[UconnU]

Hopefully Hurley can land some of these Saint Benedicts kids; they are absolutely loaded with 19/20 prospects.

Ha, the tools gave play/player of the game to Pitt with 15 seconds left. Wonder if they made amends in the postgame wrap.

I remember watching that game live on TV. That was a wild finish

El-Amin was definitely the attitude we've had with our lead guard on basically all of our title teams.

Who is gonna be the next one is the real question.

I talked way to much crap to my little sis about going to Rhody for him to stay there. Thankful.

I have a cousin who attended both URI and UCONN. She graduated from UCONN.

There almost as many posts in this thread as the entire Pitt board lol

Not surprising. Pitt has always been a football school.

Love this...

Audience? You're being far too kind. More like an angry mob!

Really surprised no one is pissed he hasn’t hired a bigmans coach yet. I mean, isn’t that the reason we’ve been doing poorly? It was the consensus here

Give him a couple more days.

The miserable people who hate on everything and are constantly negative, are hating on other things at the moment. Don't worry, they'll get around to big man coaching in short order.

This is thread is the "Show me what you got" from the Boneyard...

please. keep. it. going.

 

[Waquoit]

Don't worry, after our second loss this fall the bus will be all warmed up and in reverse.

No, it won't. Maybe a few KO supporters trying to be funny.

It's a great article. 10/10 would recommend. and since the original tweet didn't show up, here's the relevant clip about that game.

Some guy retweeted that.

Here's a link to the article.

Bob Sr. looked over at the UConn players and said, “I think they need to get bigger. They’re not as physically strong. I thought I’d see some kids thicker.”

Is that Hurley Sr quote out of context or is he just a curmudgeon? Did I read somewhere else on here that Uconn never got one of his players? Did we even get a single NJ recruit over the years?

Not out of context, nor was it a curmudgeonly comment.

He's blunt and a hard , and that's an absolutely accurate assessment of our guys. From his comments, Danny clearly agrees.

Have you seen our players? That comment is 100% accurate.

The "down 20" game at Pitt. was four years earlier. DONNY Marshall was suspended for that game due to his "slapping" incident the previous game vs St John's at the HCC.
