University of Connecticut men's basketball coach Dan Hurley was ejected in the final second of the fourth-ranked Huskies' 68-62 loss to Marquette on Saturday The incident, which adds to what sources describe as Hurley's "combative history with officials," occurred with one second remaining on the clock
Hurley began arguing after he believed UConn player Silas Demary Jr. was fouled by Marquette's Ben Gold during a drive to the basket while the Huskies were trailing 64-62 In the ensuing dispute, Hurley approached official John Gaffney and received two technical fouls, leading to his ejection
Hurley later stated that he did not bump the official, though some replay angles suggested there may have been contact The technical fouls resulted in free throws that helped Marquette secure the 68-62 victory, dealing a setback to UConn as the postseason approaches
