Honestly, the guy wasn’t yelling anything that you don’t hear at any other college basketball game.  The difference was he was courtside row 2, and there were a total of maybe 700 DePaul fans in the building.  You could hear everything he was yelling word for word, and you could tell the players and refs were hearing him clearly.

But I don’t think that Hurley’s issue was the screaming DePaul fan.  I think he was using it as an opportunity to ruffle Driscoll’s feathers.  He wasn’t happy at all with Driscoll in the first half, and was yelling at him across the court on three separate occasions.  Then during a media timeout, Hurley left the huddle, walked over to Driscoll and said “Pat, we are the defending National Champions and the number one team in the country.  We deserve more respect.”  Driscoll dismissed him and walked to the baseline.  Hurley gave a wry smile and returned to the huddle.  So, in my opinion, Hurley took the fan delay as an opportunity to get into Driscoll’s ear and give him the business for a few minutes.
