UConn coach Dan Hurley joins brother Bobby, former Duke star, as repeat national champion
Monday's win gave UConn coach Dan Hurley something new in common with his brother Bobby
By David Cobb • 3 min readUConn's 75-60 win over Purdue in the national championship game on Monday gave Huskies coach Dan Hurley something new in common with his big brother. Bobby Hurley was the starting point guard for Duke's national titles in 1991 and 1992, meaning the Hurley brothers have each accomplished the rare feat of winning back-to-back titles.
"It's incredible to join Bob in that club," Dan Hurley said after the No. 1 overall seed Huskies closed out the No. 1 seed Boilermakers.
Now the coach at Arizona State, Bobby Hurley is uniquely equipped to evaluate his brother's historic run with the perspective of a present-day coach who has the background of experiencing a back-to-back run as a player.
Bobby Hurley praised his brother for the way he "excelled" in identifying what roster additions he needed to make, likening freshman wing Stephon Castle's role to the utilitarian role played by Andre Jackson for the Huskies in the 2022-23 season. Former Rutgers guard Cam Spencer also proved to be a valuable transfer addition following the departure of 3-point marksman Jordan Hawkins.
