In the Big East semifinals, UConn coach Dan Hurley received a technical foul after an altercation with a fan at Madison Square Garden, who Hurley claimed was behaving worse than St. John’s coach Rick Pitino. Despite the fan’s actions, Hurley opted not to have him ejected. This incident follows a previous one where Hurley engaged with a Providence fan. Hurley, known for his animated coaching style, assured there would be no further incidents in the next game against Marquette. Pitino also received a technical foul during the game and jokingly remarked about it afterwards.
