Hurley has a temper and some rough edges, too, but he's been able to harness it to his advantage because he's self-aware enough to wink at it, and he's able to switch the worst parts of his personality off when the game is over. Sharing the "shame! shame!" meme with his face superimposed on the video this week was a perfect example. That was objectively funny.
He's like a pro wrestling heel -- the villain everybody loves to hate but secretly respects because they know it's mostly an act. And he's leaned into it because it works for him and his program. Helluva coach.

He's actually been pretty open about his mental health issues. You can tell he has quite a bit of respect for Mac and our players. Hurley is a top 10 coach in college bball so you take whatever issues he has and live with them.
