He was a "name" coach to the effect that the Hurley name is kinda basketball royalty going back to his dad.Most surprising thing about him is that UConn hired him from Rhode Island. Another words, he wasn't a "name" coach hire.
He’s a good coach but definitely not a likable coach. The arrogance while whining and complaining and trying to always play the victim placing them at some disadvantage is hard to take!He is a good coach and recruiter. He won a national championship and is back to the final, no easy feat. He has won the last 11 NCAA tourney games by double digits. If he wins Monday, he is the coach of an all-time great team. Someone who beats the crap out of everyone draws some hate. If he loses, let’s see how he behaves in defeat.
Why do you poster's have to turn these games personal. I know nothing about Hurley other than he is a great coach. You'd be cocky too if you won the National title and were playing in the Final to repeat too... Fans complain about the HATE Edey gets nationally and yet Purdue fans on these boards do the same exact thing versus opposition player's and Coaches.

Keep yappin, Hurley. Overconfidence and hubris is the fuel that Edey, Smith, and Jones feed on. Just sayin. Might be a good idea to prepare for the fury.Right out of the gate:
“Obviously we have the perfect balance of talented NBA players….”
I hope Painter uses this on a continuous loop for the Boilers in preparation tomorrow.
What a pompous ass.

I think he was being somewhat facetious with that line. Maybe I'm wrong though. I saw it as a troll of the media.Right out of the gate:

What a pompous ass.
He admitted that he's trying to manufacture outrage to keep a chip on their shoulders. As we're finding out, it's better to be hated and win than be lovable losers.He’s a good coach but definitely not a likable coach. The arrogance while whining and complaining and trying to always play the victim placing them at some disadvantage is hard to take!
If he was our coach you'd like him.
Actually, I wouldn’t. Prefer representatives of my school to be with class……….If he was our coach you'd like him.
Oh he's a dbag without any doubt. But name a super successful, championship winning coach who didn't seem like an arrogant, cocky, a-hole?

Mmm puddingThat goes for most coaches. But Hurley has a special brand of arrogance I find off pudding.
Probably, like most just need to know more about the good things he does and especially the ribbons he wears. That helps doesn't it?
Had to laugh last night when they announced the national coaches of the year during one of the timeouts.show me results and show me that you didn't cheat to get them and I'll think you're on the right path.
No, I would not like him as a coach. He’s more d-bag than confident and it wouldn’t go over well in the midwest.If he was our coach you'd like him.
It did for a long time in Bloomington.No, I would not like him as a coach. He’s more d-bag than confident and it wouldn’t go over well in the midwest.

Matt Painter. to be added Monday night (thanks Boilerfla)
Had to look him up. I didn't remember Sencer playing for Rutgers.Watched his presser and he was complimentary of Purdue and very complimentary of Painter. He said at times he wished he had Painters composure. He understands that Edey is totally different than any big man they have faced and is used differently. Expects to do both single and other coverages of Zach. One subtle comment he said he was concerned about fouls on Clingan. He said Edey gets fouled a lot or goes to the line a lot. He said he watched six Purdue games since the Alabama game ended and expects to watch two more. Finally, with a smile he said he is sure Purdue fans love Cam from his big ten days.
He’s backing it up though with the teams he has assembled last year and this yearArrogant, cocky.
Izzo Jr.
Andy???? He hit the game winner at Mackey last year.Had to look him up. I didn't remember Sencer playing for Rutgers.
He’s not wrong? He’s hyping up his guys and believing in them. They’re number 1 for a reason. It’s pretty amazing how he can get them to play like they do on a consistent basis and just dominate from every single spot.Right out of the gate:

Off topic but when’s the last time you’ve had pudding? It’s been a while for me now that I think about it…you don’t really order it at restaurants and I guess maybe you have it more so at family gatherings?Mmm pudding
