Dan Hurley, the men's basketball coach at the University of Connecticut, appeared to mix it up with Friars fans on Saturday night.

The Huskies defeated Providence College 74-60 at the Amica Mutual Pavilion.

Hurley was seen going back and forth with fans with a few minutes left in the game.

As Hurley was walking off the court, in an exchange that was caught on camera, Hurley points at someone in the stands.

Look at this guy. Come here, come right here, come here. Youll get hurt, Hurley said.

Security then escorts him out of the arena.

Hurley explained after the game that he was responding to someone "barking" at him.

The coach said opposing fans shouldn't be yelling at him if their team is losing.
