UConn Huskies head coach Dan Hurley has had quite a week.
While the fourth-year head coach has the Huskies in great shape with a 21-7 overall record, he’s been making headlines for other reasons. The former Duke player picked up two quick technicals to get ejected against Villanova early in the week, the second of which came when he was trying to pump up the Connecticut crowd.

That incident doesn’t appear to have dampened the quirky coach’s fashion sense, at least. During Sunday’s game against Georgetown, the camera zoomed in on Hurley’s feet while he was squatting down to reveal that he was wearing socks that read “Love Me A Good Poop.”

Fair enough, Dan. Don’t we all.
Naturally, the footwear revelation led to a lot of reactions on social media from UConn fans and elsewhere around the college football world.

Looks like you can purchase your very own pair of these socks if you, like Hurley, want the world to know that you enjoy a good time while going No. 2.
In a day when comfort is overtaking fashion when it comes to college basketball coaches, it’s nice to know at least one person out there is willing to put in the effort, even if that effort is in the novelty sock game.
