Post by: tower912 on March 26, 2023, 06:24:41 PM: Consistently singing the praises of the Big East. Perhaps we should cut him some slack.

He is a hard guy to like personality wise, but he was ok.

Duh. Of course we want to crush them 3 times. Maybe 4.

Nope. I hold grudges. :)

Post by: CountryRoads on March 26, 2023, 06:59:45 PM: Hurley has been a great ambassador for the BE this tournament. When asked when he thought they had a championship caliber team today, without hesitation he said when they beat MU.

Post by: MU82 on March 26, 2023, 07:07:08 PM: He's grown on me. If you looked at his resume going into the tournament, he really hadn't won squat ... yet his praises were being sung as if he were the second coming of Jim Calhoun.

But he has put together a tough, well-rounded team, and now the results match the praise.

Glad the Big East has a representative in the Final Four, and glad we've got a healthy rivalry with that team again.

I'll still root for him Saturday but not against FAU. :)

Post by: BLWarrior91 on March 26, 2023, 09:17:14 PM: Hurley is a Jersey guy and there’s a certain attitude that can rub people the wrong way. His Dad is a HS coaching legend and his brother of course had an amazing college playing career. Just an amazing basketball family that knows about winning.

I will be rooting for UConn. Let’s not forget to remind people who they last to.
