in a perfect world you have both, a respected HC and a winning HC.
It's like these coaches that are always out of the coach's box. I'm glad our coaches don't do it. However, I've never seen a ref call anything on it.
We had such a coach for 40+ years. It works as long as you're winning but if not it gets old fast.
Absolutely people are lying if they say they wouldn't support him. I could see Fran doing something similar if he wins a natty and then Pitt fans tried to talk.
He loved national media.
Very fair! I respect that take
Cannot agree more. Fran is not Hurley level whatsoever, but he is very outspoken and not afraid to stand on business, and guess what we love him for it!
His success at UConn should sicken everyone associated with Cuse basketball from the players to the coaches to the fans to the administration and provide motivation to be better and do better. Having said that, have a lot of respect for what they’ve accomplished and they are fun to watch lol. Behind Syracuse, they are the second team I make an effort to tune into their games.
They couldn’t get the ball inbounds against the press four times. Nice job by the coach who says he’s the best coach in college basketball.
Eh, he still is. A massive insufferable douche though.
He doesn’t have half the talent this yr. Gimme Slick Rick…
Hurley said that to a ref.
A couple of times.
Yeah but two rings, Baldy.
They called time out twice, had a five second violation and threw deep out of bounds. The last time they got it in but it was stolen for the game winning tip in. Hurley was totally clueless. His team lost their poise and collapsed. Couldn’t happen to a better guy.
He really has no point guard anywhere near what he’s had but he picked his players, just hasn’t worked out as well, which happens. He’s human (I think). Never got an effective inbound play that worked.
Holloway is an excellent defensive minded coach who excels with tough gritty players. They are in a very tough spot with NIL not just to recruit but retain players.
