Some Guy: UConn close to signing Hurley

[TopDogs]

Do we have any idea when official word is expected to come down? Soon, I hope?

 

[Urcea]

Just woke up to this, we’re back baby let’s fuckin goooooooo

 

[Dibbie]

Where's that Ray Allen video...time to pony up!!

 

[Giscombe12]

Certainly nice news to wake up to, but I’m waiting for the thread that says “AD DB Confirms Hurley to UConn” before celebrating. (Sweet job by the site autocorrecting that extra D to Benedict!)

 

[Horatio]

So Tom managed a way to finally come back home. Calhoun will probably be around a lot
"Moore" now also. Good news. Go Huskies.

Just wanted to be apart of history by contributing to this thread. It truly has been a wild ride reading all of the comments and fake news posts. It has been entertainment at its finest, and have turned down a few plans to stay home and read every single post. Haven’t been this excited in a long time as a uconn fan.
Go huskies

Dear God...If Hurley is coming to UConn, show me a sign by having Kstallings like my post.

I'm tempering my enthusiasm. KStallings never liked my post. It (the bot) liked the post before and the post after, but not this one.

   Rhode Island made David Cox “head coach in waiting” when he was promoted to Associate Head Coach, per multiple sources. School would have to pay buyout if it went in another direction.

   Tom Moore is expected to be a part of Dan Hurley’s staff at UConn as an assistant coach, per a source. Was a former assistant under Jim Calhoun.

I gotta put this out there....it feels a bit awkward to be excited that a Hurley is going to be the next UCONN coach. Some of you young pups may not understand, but damn I hated Bobby!!

OK, I feel better...

 

[Hi-Low]

I didn't doubt he was coming here for a second

 

[UConnSwag11]

Ok. Time to get going. Need confirmation from the team and recruits

 

[Paesano]

I’m heading to bed. This has been an exhausting day. Glad I made it to get the unofficial word.

Also glad I helped my 94 y/o neighbor who fell. Would have helped her even if we didn’t need Hurley. If it helped the cause all the better. Found out she played forward on her NC hs B.B. team.

She was unaware women’s college B.B. games are on tv. So we’re going to make sure she watches the UConn women’s game on Saturday.

Fleud is back!!!@

It’s on ESPN...

Sources: UConn to hire Rhode Island's Hurley

I would just love to see a 4or 5 star player decommit from a P5 and come and enroll at UConn for Hurley. That would be more than icing on the cake.

Maybe Danny hates Bobby too. I’ll be shocked if he doesn’t hate Laettner.

So has only ADB confirmed Hurley is coming? Has either University put anything official out yet?

What a ride this thread has been.

 

[fatlucy]

Ok, now I need to get all the work done I didn’t do yesterday.

 

[HawkHusky]

Looks like Hurley smelled the BS regarding a practice facility. LOL at 2 years!!!

URI’s offer, per sources, was $2 million per year for 7 years beginning in July of 2019. Also commitment to build a basketball-only practice facility (to be completed within next 2 years), staff salary increases and ability to charter for all away games. Big-time offer by URI.

I believe Rothstein said an official announcement to come sometime today.

 

[UConnStats]

We should hope Cox isn’t named HC, because he’s just about the only thing that could keep any of their recruits at URI.
