Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 5333337, member: 10"] Original thread is locked since it went off the rails. Not sure we need another thread on this but it was interesting to hear Benedict's thoughts. Exactly what many on here said. [I]“Did it hit me out of left field? No,” Benedict said. “Look, we can all appreciate and I’m sure there’s people that love that side of Coach Hurley, where he’s unabashedly honest with his emotions and how he feels, which is not how people look at headlines like were reported last week… When you put it into context that you went through a season and you won a national championship when no one expected it, you’re on that roller coaster and then you start another year and you win another one, and then there’s expectations, whether appropriate or not, to win a third. I think everyone’s got to take a step back and appreciate what that group went through for three years. “And when someone says that they’re fried or they’ve got no energy left, it’s because of the demands that he puts on himself and the rest of that program with how they operate, which is why they were in the position they were in. It’s why, outside of one individual making a couple of shots, we win that game against Florida. But I can appreciate the realities of what that roller coaster was like for three years in a row.”[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.courant.com/2025/09/09/what-uconn-ad-david-benedict-said-about-dan-hurleys-thoughts-of-stepping-down/[/URL] [USER=1268]@RuffRuff[/USER] has generously offered to sponsor the "Alternate Access" links in my posts.
