FILE - In this March 3, 2019, file photo, Connecticut head coach Dan Hurley shouts from the bench during the second half of an NCAA college basketball game against South Florida, in Storrs, Conn. Hurley expects UConn to be better this season, the second in the coach’s effort to rebuild the storied program back to national prominence. That doesn’t mean that Connecticut, which went 16-17 a year ago, will compete for a fifth national championship, but it should mean the Huskies will win more games than they lose. That’s something UConn has not done since 2015-16. (AP Photo/Steven Senne, File)
