UConn coach Dan Hurley owned up to berating an official during Tuesday night's 80-78 win over Butler after he was caught on camera telling them "don't turn your back on me, I'm the best coach in the f---ing sport."

Hurley was complaining about what he thought was a foul on a defensive rebound attempt late in the first half. After the game, he said he was looking for more "communication" from officials.

The two-time champion coach also lodged a complaint about how often the TV cameras focus on him.

"I just wish they put the camera on the other coach more," he said.
