He hurts this basketball team in ways that are just frustrating with his antics

What hurts the team more is missing a heroic amount of layups and open 3s

What hurts the team more is missing a heroic amount of layups and open 3s

Or not passing to a guy for a dunk on a break and instead going one on three hero ball with the game on the line…

I cannot believe how bad this team is at layups. No one is capable of attempting that layup Odom hit on the baseline in under 2 minutes. Hell we struggle on 3 on 1 fastbreaks.

You could make the argument that Jackson doesn't end up with a technical if Hurley doesn't get one first. Players will model their coaches. Hurley set the stage for aggravation and Jackson followed suit. As a coach, you've got to be more mature than your players and show them how to respond to adversity.

Do you not remember Calhoun purposely getting T’s to fire up his team? Your coach having your back like that goes a lot further than giving up those two points.

It’s like people forget what they complain about is what they used to love…

Felt like half of those misses were from Whaley today. He legit shouldn't be allowed to ever shoot a 3 again.

We were down 5 and the game was winnable at that point. Huge momentum swing against us. If we were down 10 fine. It was a winnable game and we had some momentum.

Jackson doesn’t get a t without the selfish hero ball right before that.

Pass the damn ball, get the easy layup. Keep playing

Also the bad sequence to end the half looms large

Got some softies on this team

He shouldn’t be planted at the 3 point line. Us playing Whaley at the 4 does nothing but hurt us.

Cole and Martin are not plus athletes and that causes them to have issues finishing at the rest.

It’s normal for guys who don’t have Freakish athleticism

 

[LIuconn]

A coach CANNOT take a T there

He was defending his player on a terrible foul call. Those two free throws didn’t win or lose the game. I have absolutely zero issue with it.

 

[BigFanCT]

Surprise, surprise…..a player coached by Hurley gets a T.

The guy is the definition of soft.

He ain’t it, folks.

That's exactly how I saw it too.

They mentioned 6/18 on layups late in second half and I laughed out loud

On drives, Xavier is much better are drawing contact to get a foul. UConn seems to try to avoid contact.

On the steal on their inbounds, RJ had Andre for a dunk and instead made a cute pass for a turnover.

It was really over right then.

 

[BigFanCT]

What’s funny to me about Hurley is that he goes on a Barstool podcast and says “I don’t give a shot what anybody thinks of me.”

Proceeds to get 2 techs in the last 2 games, tries to fight a UConn fan, kind of gets into it with Shaka last game.

The guy is all talk.

 

[jdb50]

Hurley needs a giant mirror in his house and needs to sit in front of it. By himself.

Half of the posters in this thread never post on the yard. They are negativity junkies.

Wrong take. Calhoun knew how to use Ts strategically. Hurley got a T because he was over demonstrative and couldn't control himself. There is a huge difference. JC didn't do it down the stretch of close games.

Scholarship athletes missing a ridiculous amount of open shots all year long is not it folks.

You gotta play through contact.

Not avoid it and throw up wild shots

I do not remember JC getting a T at that point in a game. Refresh my memory.
