Dan Hurley told a UConn beat reporter for one of the local CT papers that once he turns 60 he’s retiring. Just like Jay Wright did. Which I believe because the way he coaches it’s not sustainable into his 70’s. Wright is also a mentor and I think seeing Wright still an elite HC go out on his own terms resonates because he’s already angry that other schools are tampering with his players. I think he can handle that for 8 or 9 more years but he’s not going to put up with it for 15 or 20 more years. Unless something changes I don’t see him leaving UConn and I believe him when he says UConn is his dream job and also his last job. Hopefully he wins a few more National titles.
Agreed that he and his wife won't leave the northeast. But he told Barstool Sports last year that he has long-term aspirations to coach in the NBA. I bet that if the HC job with the Celtics, Knicks, Nets, or Sixers opens up in 3 years, he will definitely try to land it.
Fearless & Ferocious Competitors. Big East Tough 💪👊👊
Go UConn go!!!
Dan Hurley isn't going to the West Coast, his wife and family are East Coasters. Listen to interviews that include Hurley's wife.
