Go Gophers!!
Stole my post; stole my thoughts! I appreciate him as a coach and program builder, but I don't appreciate boorish behavior by anyone. That's a choice. It's fine to have a little edge to you, but... The Bobby Knight comparison is apt and one I was going to make myself.It’s getting close to a Bobby Knight act, which I could live without. For some coaches the behavior is a show like professional wrestling. I don’t get that with him. He strikes as close to unhinged.
That would be my vote as well. I don't care enough about College Basketball in general to formulate an opinion one way or another on Hurley.How about a third option? Don't care about him.
Bobby Hurley may be available at season’s end.It's awesome. Wish we had a coach with his passion (and coaching talent)
Pretty impressive tech rate for his brother too.
One of these days he's going to get his clocked cleaned, people are crazy in today's environment.It’s getting close to a Bobby Knight act, which I could live without. For some coaches the behavior is a show like professional wrestling. I don’t get that with him. He strikes as close to unhinged.
Until Hurley's players start lining up with allegations of verbal or physical abuse, he's not in the same stratosphere as Knight.
Not a good chunk. An extreme chunk. A total chunk.All winning coaches have a good chunk of narcissism in them. You have to be laser focused, able to ignore and walk over those who oppose you, and demand that those on your team rise to the same level of passion for winning.
Most of us are not cut out for such things. If you're not competing against him I am sure he's probably a fun guy to hang around with.
