UConn means something. This is how Dan Hurley made it matter again
UConn is place that measures its success by national title banners "It isn't hard to understand expectations here," Hurley says.

Days after the New Mexico State loss, a meeting was called. The only invites: Jordan Hawkins, Adama Sanogo and Andre Jackson Jr. That’s it. The three of them, plus Hurley, gathered in the office.
Hurley went right down the line.
He pointed at Hawkins: “You’re going to be one of the best shooters and scorers in the country next season.”
Pointed at Jackson: “You’re going to be one of the most dynamic playmakers in the country.”
At Sanogo: “And you’re going to be the preseason Big East Player of the Year.”
“All right?”
