Some Guy: UConn close to signing Hurley

[TopDogs]

Anyone on Twitter seeing current players saying anything?

Haven't seen any reaction from players on Twitter. I've been looking.

Dan explaining his decision to leave to URI AD -

"Did you see the 177 pages of epic Boneyard awesomeness in the "Some guy" thread? Who could say no to that? Oh and the $3.1 million per year didn't suck either."

Don't be too hard on URI fans. They had no idea what they were up against. They actually thought they were competing against equals. Unfortunately, we had to remind them of their inferiority. They will never, ever, be in our stratosphere. If they have something that we want, we're going to take it. And there isn't a single thing that they can do about it.

posted this in another thread, but will add here. Anyone remember this UCONN Pitt game. It was crazy.

Over 20 inches here in Wading River. I didn't start clearing it until i knew for sure DH was coming!

East Hampton CT was supposed to get 8"-12". The WeatherUnderground app radar showed all sorts of shades of green and blue all afternoon, but nary a flake fell before 5:30 last night. In all my 41+ years, it was the first time where it did actually snow, but there was more accumulation before the storm than after. Never more disappointed in a storm. Only the Hurley hire could buoy my spirits.

Guys the reaction on URI board is down right hysterical ...it ranges from throw Calhoun out of the state (they said he has a house Inn Charlestown), UConn is dirty, UConn is no better than they are, to realists that understand the differences...to fighting with each other who will be coach. They also are a fair smiling that are crucifying Hurley to no end . It was a VERY enjoyable read..and this was a GREAT time posting in the thread!!!!

This article written last week by Norlander is a GREAT read on Hurley for those that want to know more about what type of guy he is:

For Dan Hurley and Rhode Island, March Madness 2018 is all about a sense of calm

If those idiots were smart they'd offer Calhoun the $2M/year. He'd probably take it.

 

[FDNY99]

Has Jim Calhoun commented? Would love to hear it!

any word on when UCONN will hold an introductory press conference for DH?

Haha I thought he looked a lil too weasily there to be Dan.

FYI I like Bobby unlike most. He just has that weasel face, perfect for Duke.

Roommate's girlfriend working a shift for someone close to the Hurley family was right!

It couldn't have been sustained. We'd all be unemployed and divorced. Wouldn't mind seeing it trickle to halt at 180 pages though. Then it should be saved for posterity.

Yes, but after the presser tomorrow we can all switch to #natchampwatch

 

[Urcea]

already tired of the "uconn stepping stone" narrative i've seen from some fans of other teams. have people really forgotten UCONN has been the program of the 21st century in terms of nat champs? it's only been a handful of years. granted a lot of it is i've seen from salty PITT Fans but still annoying

1. I thought we couldn't beat out a P5 school for a coach? To put it another way, any coach that could get a P5 offer wasn't going to come to UConn.
2. I thought we couldn't afford to pay a hot coach the going rate? Something...something...go fund me...ha ha...something...something.
3. I thought we couldn't attract a good coach after firing the last coach for cause?

There was a lot of wrong and a lot of fail on this board the past few months. And thank god!!! We got a great coach!

Interesting

Oh he called out Chief.
