Dan Hurley's 2024-25 season off to a rocky start after Maui Invitational nightmare

UConn Huskies coach Dan Hurley

The first year of Hurley's new contract with UConn is off to a rocky start, with the Huskies suffering three consecutive defeats at the Maui Invitational. Hurley blasted the referees in both of UConn's losses to the Memphis Tigers and the Colorado Buffaloes, arguing that the Huskies were on the wrong end of officiating mistakes.

Hurley lost his temper after Liam McNeeley was called for an over-the-back foul with 40.3 seconds left in the game against Memphis. A technical foul compounded his woes as the Huskies lost 99-97.

They suffered another narrow defeat the next day, losing 73-72 to the Buffaloes. Hurley felt that Colorado's Trevor Baskin should have been called for an over-the-back foul when he battled McNeeley for a rebound with 24 seconds left. That no-call proved crucial, as Andrej Jakimovski drained the eventual game-winning shot for Colorado in the next possession.

UConn finished their Hawaii road trip without a win, losing 85-67 to the Dayton Flyers in the battle for seventh place.

Hurley and the Huskies returned to winning ways on Saturday, crushing Maryland Eastern Shore 99-45 to improve their record to 5-3.
