Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 4601934, member: 10"] The article isn't specifically about UConn but UConn is a big part of it. On the front of the Boston Globe sports page today. I guess Tara Sullivan doesn't hate UConn. :) [I]“The history and tradition, it helps you in recruiting. We sold it to these guys. We’ve done it here before; we can do it again,” Hurley said. “But I think it becomes a little bit of a mental hurdle, especially like early rounds of the NCAA Tournament where you feel like maybe the burden of the history and tradition and first-round games, maybe even second-round games. “But it also feels like, when you coach at Rhode Island and Wagner [Hurley’s previous coaching stops], you’re not always getting everyone’s best shot every single night. And when you play or coach at UConn you get the other team’s best shot every single night. It’s their Super Bowl. So the climb to get to this point has been real and it’s been more challenging than I thought.”[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.bostonglobe.com/2023/03/28/sports/if-changing-landscape-college-sports-leads-more-what-were-seeing-mens-final-four-sign-us-up/[/URL] [B][U]Alternate free access:[/U][/B] [HEADING=2][COLOR=rgb(44, 130, 201)][URL='https://www.printfriendly.com/p/g/WPFDsA']If the changing landscape of college sports leads to more of what we’re seeing in the men’s Final Four, sign us up[/URL][/COLOR][/HEADING] [/QUOTE]
