00:00Of course, two-time defending champ UConn, they've had some problems this year.

00:05They were down 14 last night at home to Villanova, but they do come back and get the job done,

00:1266-59.

00:13Dan Hurley, always with a lot to say, another close win for the Huskies.

00:18I just, this, this, this, I don't know what it is, man.

00:23We've had it so good, and I keep going back to, now you can add this one too, like the

00:29down 14 against DePaul, win at Marquette, heartbreaker versus St. John's in a game

00:36where you're minus 15 turnovers, and it's a one-possession game with 30 seconds to go.

00:40Win at Creighton, lose that over the weekend, and now get down 14 against this team and

00:47win.

00:48I mean, I can't imagine what our fans, I mean, I know what my nerves are like.

00:53My horror ring was ready to explode.

00:56Whoa.

00:57Whoa.

00:59Easy there.

01:00Easy there, Dan.

01:01Hey.

01:02Hey.

01:03Slow down.

01:04Another guy.

01:05Another guy who can calm down.

01:06You just won two national championships.

01:07You know, you'll be okay.

01:09I've been hearing and reading about this guy of late in stories that he's been just snapping

01:18on refs and the media of late over the last month, and he's been losing it.

01:26And he's already got, he's the fiery coach, and he's probably really the most, I guess,

01:33boisterous, crazy coach in college basketball.

01:36Who's crazier than him?

01:37Is there anyone that you can think of that gets crazier than him?

01:41You know, Izzo, but I think Hurley's got Izzo top now for crazy when he starts snapping

01:47on refs and the media and everything else.

01:49He's been really snide.

01:51He just saw it right there.

01:54He's like, everybody's out to get us.

01:55Well, of course they are, dude.

01:57You won two straight national championships, and you're on record right out of your mouth

02:01saying you're the best coach in college basketball, bar none.

02:07And you know, when you go and tell everybody you're better than everybody else in your

02:11profession, I'm the best coach in America, and you've won back-to-back every, Tom Dickenary

02:18wants to chop your head off.

02:20It's real simple.

02:21Whoever's on top is hated.

02:24It's no different than the Chiefs or anybody else, Celtics.

02:27If they're on top, especially, particularly for a while, like the Chiefs are, it's even

02:31worse.

02:32If you've got a dynasty, there's nothing fans hate worse, except the fans of that team.

02:37They're the only ones that like them.

02:39They are the only ones that like them, that is for sure.

02:43So they continue on.

02:44They're going to be in the tournament.

02:45They'll be fine.
