Dan Hurley to Kentucky? UConn coach offers hearty laugh in dismissing UK rumors after national championship

cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/dan-hurley-to-kentucky-uconn-coach-offers-hearty-laugh-in-dismissing-uk-rumors-after-national-championship/

Quick Glance: Dan Hurley Confronts Purdue's Zach Edey Over Hard Screen on UConn

During Monday's national championship game, Dan Hurley expressed discontent with Zach Edey, making his feelings known to the Purdue center.

Hurley was observed engaging with the Boilermakers star after Edey knocked down UConn's Stephon Castle with a hard screen.

Edey seemed to push Castle during the screen, frustrating Hurley as Purdue's key player avoided a potentially costly foul.

Edey did not accumulate a foul in the first half, contributing 16 of the Boilermakers' 30 points, along with five rebounds and two blocks.
