Rob Parker: "Dan Hurley is crazy! He will regret this going forward. What are you thinking?! They know your brother Bobby Hurley better than you. I know you won back-to-back championships and you want to threepeat in this B-grade, downtrodden college basketball. This is what you want? You didn't want to be the whole enchilada in Los Angeles. You'd rather stay in the armpit of Connecticut and be small potatoes with no ketchup?! That's what you want?! Come on, man! Here is a golden opportunity. Stand up and be bigger, don't worry about what other people did. This was your chance! What if he got LeBron another championship, took AD and the Lakers forward in a way nobody else has! Show us what you've got as a coach! You took the easy way out."
Chris Broussard and Rob Parker react to UConn HC Dan Hurley choosing to stay at Connecticut, turning down a 6-year $70 million offer to become the next head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers. Rob rips Hurley for missing out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become wealthy and relevant at the professional level with a highly prestigious franchise.
