UConn's Dan Hurley Was Asked About The Kentucky Opening After Winning The Championship

It didn't take long for UConn head coach Dan Hurley to be asked about the Kentucky job opening after leading the Huskies to back-to-back National Championships on Monday night.

Hurley spoke to reporters after the game and said he's staying put at UConn and is focused on building a dynasty. Per ESPN:

After UConn beat Purdue 75-60 to repeat as NCAA tournament champions, Hurley addressed the opening with a few jokes, telling reporters he doesn't "think that's a concern" when asked about Kentucky. He added they should ask his wife, Andrea, who is also a native of New Jersey.

"Oh my God, Kentucky or anywhere that's going to take her further from New Jersey," he said when asked about her reaction to a potential move. "I mean, we just went to Rhode Island, which I had to drag her to, and then to Connecticut. I got her closer. And now further? I can't afford a divorce right now, too. I just started making money."

Hurley went on to give some insight into what's next for his program: "Now you're thinking in your brain, as I'm looking at the locker room, about the chance to do it three times, like a dynasty in modern times. I mean, that's what I'm thinking about."
