Who is the acountant looking guy to Dan Hurley's R (under the 'N')? Always sitting at scorer's table next to Dan Hurley at games.

I was lucky enough to attend with my wife. The guy in the gray suit/blue tie next to President Maric works for the NYSE and is a UConn alumn, and is clearly a lifelong fan. In his opening remarks he talked growing up watching the team in the Yankee Conference, how special this year's team was, etc. He said, "When we go out to the floor, I'm going to do the Big Red chat after the bells rings."

Always nice to tie in these little events with a reception the night before with donor types. Let’s keep everyone happy and the money coming in!
