Dan Hurley on Adama Sanogo: He just has so much self belief. He does not blink. He thinks he's better than everybody and you cannot convince him otherwise. But he works like he's a nobody. He's humble that way, but arrogant when the ball goes up. That's what you need in sports."

What if UConn loses tomorrow, Geno? "Two years without winning a national championship, I'll probably have to move. Too many people know where I live. We'll be like 70-something and 2, and somebody will be out to get me. I'll have to change where I go to the store, all that."
