“Great coaches are driven to strive for perfection. Dan Hurley has the unique ability to create a culture where caring for his players enables them to rise above their natural talents to create a consistent winner. That is the genius of a true leader.” —Urban Meyer, Three-Time NCAA championship football coach at Florida and Ohio State

“Dan Hurley emerged from one of the finest leadership families our sport has known, so it is no surprise that he set a standard at UConn that few coaches have ever matched. Like his father at St. Anthony and his brother at Duke, Dan earned his way with an unrelenting approach to the game. His players respond with championship effort because they know how much he genuinely cares about them” —Mike Krzyzewski, Five-Time NCAA championship coach at Duke, all-time men’s basketball leader in victories

“I doubt very much that I would have done in college basketball what Dan has done at UConn. I am absolutely in awe of what he has done. What the world has seen in his twelve NCAA Tournament games to win back-to-back national titles, I don’t care who I’ve talked to in the basketball world, they all just say, ‘How is it possible to have such utter dominance?’” —Bob Hurley Sr., Four-Time national championship coach at St. Anthony High School, Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer

“Leadership comes in all shapes and sizes. Dan Hurley is raw, brutally honest, and unwaveringly intense. He's made his mark by being true to himself and unique in his approach to basketball and life. His story connects on so many levels and goes beyond the game that has made him a Hall of Famer.” —Ian Eagle, Two-Time NSMA National Sportscaster of the Year for CBS/Turner Sports
