Dan Hurley's 'egomaniac' behavior is a bad look for UConn
Yahoo Sports' Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz and basketball analyst Isis 'Ice' Young discuss the Connecticut head coach's antics in the tunnel following the Huskies' second-round loss to Florida in the NCAA tournament. Hear the full conversation on the 'College Basketball Power Hour' podcast - and subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you listen. View more To your point, I though about UConn, Florida, the game itself, awesome. Like that's, I'm almost sad that we got that matchup so early in the tournament. That's the kind of matchup that I would have loved to have seen in the Sweet 16 or the Elite Eight, but uh, where do we rank Dan Hurley's little postgame outburst? Just because of Dan Hurley, just because he's off the rail doesn't mean it's OK to make statements like that, like March Madness. You don't get every call. You don't get every other call. So I also feel like it's just a bit immature from a coach like Dan Hurley. Take the loss, bro. Take the loss, go home, go back to the stores, they still love you. Get in the portal, go rebuild, and see if we're as good as you think you are. But it's the thing Dan Hurley, that was at Craig and showing two rings to fans. Be bold in that way. And now we're surprised, but we're going to give this a passing the rest of you. No, bro, you also just locked the gate. Take the hell like everybody else in March. It is undeniable to me at this point that Dan Hurley is being treated differently by the media, by the people that cover him, by my friends at ESPN. He is clearly being treated differently because people behind the scenes like him. And because people behind the scenes like him, they're giving him benefit of the doubt that doesn't exist for other coaches. I think it's absolutely asinine. And I think at some point, this is Dan Hurley, who sits there to his players. We all know that coaches tell their players at some point that everything you do represents the logo on your chest. So I guess I would ask Dan Hurley, do you feel like the way you act? Is the proper representation for University of Connecticut? Cause I don't. And the fact that it is now known that the athletic director from Connecticut went to the person that posted that video and said, take it down or I'll ruin your life shows you that there is an absolute problem culturally with the Connecticut basketball program, with Connecticut sports. I believe them. My heart of hearts that if it was any other coach, if it was any other coach that didn't have that, we would destroy it. The kid gloves we handle Dan Hurley with is unacceptable. At this point, it is fair to call him what he is, which is an egomaniac that acts like a child every time he doesn't get his way on the court. That is not a representative, uh, representation of how somebody should lead young men. Close
