Cal can complain about how hard it is to win with a young team for the tenth year in a row.

I don’t see Hurley leaving what he’s got here. He’s the number 1 celebrity in the state, (UConn) fans love him. He reads social media, he sees how quick Kentucky fans would turn on him if he underachieves. Plus he loves the northeast.

With that said, I wonder how much money they’d have to offer where he couldn’t pass it up. 10 years $100 million? 5 years $75 million? At some point there is a number that’s too absurd to pass up…
With Hurley proving to be one of the best in the biz, I hope a certain P2 program located close to his home doesn't come calling with multiple bags of cash knowing even their program could start winning conference championships with this hire. Hope Dan Hurley will retire a Husky.

Apparently his buyout is something like $33 million.

Rutgers? I suppose he could view it as the Calhoun challenge, but even the 1980 UConn Huskies had a bigger following, more interest than any Rutgers team has ever had.

If the East Region was nearly a landslide, the South Region is wide open. No. 1 seed Houston looks to reach the Final Four for the first time since 2021 -- and 28 of our experts believe in the Cougars. No. 3 seed Kentucky comes in ... dead even, with 28 votes, as well.

There is an element of truth to that. There is nothing like big game experience. Kenny Smith and Clark talked about it.

I don't think every game at Greer was a sellout in the '80's. And there appears to be somewhat of a vacuum right now at the top of the B1G. Crazier things have happened.

The portal changed the game. A D 2 transfer hit all those 3's

5 star recruits are not as valuable as seasoned upper class men

Cal is no longer relevant
Unreal stats.... 10/20 on three's. Every shot he took was a three.
