Quote from: tnice on March 28, 2015, 11:52:55 AMQuestion for those who would know: Doesn't Danny Hurley have some serious Mike Rice in him? I'm not talking about intensity or getting T'd up in games...I mean like an abusive, foul mouthed screamer in practice. I know he wouldnt be the only coach in America to do that, I'm just wondering if it would fly at SJU. Is he over the line or just on the other side of it?I watched two uri games this year. He's a whiney bitch on the sidelines. If he gets hired people will get tired of his act very quickly. It was annoying to watch on tv with no rooting interest in the game.

Hurley complained a bit to the refs because of a couple of iffy foul calls, but nothing out of the ordinary.Do you just not like him?

I don't really know anything about him as a coach except for the two games I watched. I don't think he's been in the tournament and uri isn't on tv much -- that's all I've seen so can't make a real judgment. To the question above, he was much worse than jay wright. Even the announcers couldn't stop talking about it in one game. Like a child throwing a temper tantrum. Before anyone asks, I don't remember whether he was wearing a suit or not.
Won't get tired of Hurley's act if we win.

He's a pageant mom on the sidelines. But, I bet he'll win consistently here.

It's not like he doesn't' know the difference between a player who belongs, and one who does not.Didn't belong here, what are you talking about?Had he brought in players who did belong we would have had a solid 8 man rotation. Early on there were 6 players. Then CO, then Jordan. That's 8, who else. Hooper,Borgo, Keith, ADR, JDR, AA, the walk ons. Who helped the core players this year? Steve started ok and then just stopped and guys started playing 40. Sorry I'm a broken record, but I was asked to elaborate. Look at the list of players who were brought in and those who could really play. Fine to think I'm seeing it wrong. I never thought I had any of the answers. I thought Steve did and sorry he did not hold down the job.That is bogus. If you think that the next coach is going to have 13 Big East caliber players EVERY year on the roster you better get ready to complain now. Completely bogus expectation and criticism. Lavin was at fault of failing to land his top targets for 2014, no doubt. But this other stuff is convenient misinformation.And go look at all the transfers, low level recruits and non-qualifiers since Ed Cooley took over at Providence. Seriously. Go look and count them all.

Hurley is 45-49 in 3 years at URI, a losing record. In conference, he is 21-29, a losing record. What am I missing? Talk about low expectations. If he is the best we can do, the program is officially a graveyard.
Don't care what our future coach does on the sidelines, so long as we win.
Quote from: PIB on March 28, 2015, 01:46:46 PMDon't care what our future coach does on the sidelines, so long as we win. Exactly! He can scratch his arse and smell his finger each and every game. As, long as he's not particularly embarrassing the school, then all that matters is we're winning.
