Hurley's latest battle with the media happened after UConn's victory over Georgetown on Wednesday. During his postgame availability, Hurley responded to a question about his handling of the media by describing the press as "a--holes."

Hurley proceeded to offer a candid response. 

"I mean, I think the press has been an a--hole to me all year," Hurley said. "Oh wait you mean the . . . oh, I thought you meant . . . . There's people acting far worse than me. What was that?

UConn fell out of the AP Top-25 rankings earlier this month. However, Wednesday's 93-79 win over the Hoyas did improve the Huskies' record to 19-9.
