Hurley. What’s the scoop@Latsko if you play the game and answer the question, I’ll tell you an insight scoop.
Nah, just kidding
This 100%. Auriema might have a chance but would be huge adjustment. His game plan against Iowa was great. Iowa should have won that easily but UConn D was phenomenal.Hurley. I’ve coached both women’s and men’s basketball, albeit it just at the high school level. Men’s is much more difficult to coach for a number of reasons. Not saying Staley is a bad coach, but men’s is more difficult. Much faster and have to make decisions in game much quicker. Boys are also more difficult to coach than girls.
All this is just in my experience.
Hurley. I CAN’T STAND Dawn Staley, I pull for every team she’s playing against ( LFG Hawks!!)You are the athletic director at a blue blood power five school. You’ve narrowed your coaching search for your next men’s basketball coach to two candidates: Hurley and Staley.

Don't hold back - tell us how you really feel.... 😂Hurley. I CAN’T STAND Dawn Staley, I pull for every team she’s playing against ( LFG Hawks!!)
Yeah, whole heartily despise a Hall of Fame woman who has won us 3 Olympics gold medals for our country. Who also was elected to carry the United States Flag at the opening ceremony of the 2004 Summer Olympics. I hope she is fired for being so dam successful.Hurley. I CAN’T STAND Dawn Staley, I pull for every team she’s playing against ( LFG Hawks!!)
She worse than Kim Mulkey?Hurley. I CAN’T STAND Dawn Staley, I pull for every team she’s playing against ( LFG Hawks!!)
Haha me tooHurley. I CAN’T STAND Dawn Staley, I pull for every team she’s playing against ( LFG Hawks!!)
I did the same and came to the same conclusion.Hurley. The women's game isn't in the same stratosphere as the men's game, and there's much less parity of talent/teams in the women's game. Watching a little of Clark the last couple of weekends just for curiosity sake, and my take has been that she's really good and the rest of the players on the court play the game at a JV boys level.
I pull against SC every time they play. Staley is a racist social misfit.Hurley. I CAN’T STAND Dawn Staley, I pull for every team she’s playing against ( LFG Hawks!!)
A racist social misfit? I’m interested in an explanation for this claim?I pull against SC every time they play. Staley is a racist social misfit.
No need to be sarcastic. I didn’t say she was a bad coach, I dislike her actions and the things that she says.
Umm.. not sure if one is worse than the other but I’m not a fan of hers either. Her outfits are ridiculous and she plays the damn victim role too.She worse than Kim Mulkey?
I’m sure one would be the bogus BYU incident. Never happened. Fame went to her head. She was different 20 years ago.A racist social misfit? I’m interested in an explanation for this claim?
Well she creates false racism narratives to fit her narrative and perpetuate her USCE women’s basketball vs the world crap…. 2 recent examples were going off on Iowa coach Lisa Bluder ahead of last years FF matchup for comments that weren’t racist at all, then there were the 2 games she cancelled vs BYU because a Duke volleyball player made false racist claims against BYU…when confronted with facts on both scenarios questioning her actions/decisions she doubled down or continued to play the victim….in the BYU case it was actually a family member of the Duke player who was making racist remarks etcA racist social misfit? I’m interested in an explanation for this claim?
Just because someone is/has been successful in life doesn’t mean you have to like them, support them and/or want them to be your coach.
Watch her interviews during the season and get back to me.I pull against SC every time they play. Staley is a racist social misfit.

Umm.. not sure if one is worse than the other but I’m not a fan of hers either. Her outfits are ridiculous and she plays the damn victim role too.Good Lord, choosing which of the two is worse is a touch choice but my vote goes to Staley.
Gino is too old and set in his ways to do the NBA thing. Women's basketball has caught up to him in some ways but he's still one hell of a coach and usually in contention in the big tournament.This 100%. Auriema might have a chance but would be huge adjustment. His game plan against Iowa was great. Iowa should have won that easily but UConn D was phenomenal.
Boy that's a hard choice but my vote goes to Staley.No need to be sarcastic. I didn’t say she was a bad coach, I dislike her actions and the things that she says.

Cite some examples man. Calling someone racist regardless of skin color or gender isn't something to be taken lightly.Watch her interviews during the season and get back to me.
I was with you until you said boys were more difficult to coach. I would not say that, but it does depend on your personality. I personally find guys easier to coach.Hurley. I’ve coached both women’s and men’s basketball, albeit it just at the high school level. Men’s is much more difficult to coach for a number of reasons.
