UConn men’s basketball coach Dan Hurley will be featured in a segment on the CBS show “60 Minutes” this Sunday, chronicling the Huskies’ historic run at a third consecutive national championship.

“A Method to his Madness” will be the third segment in the show, which airs at 7 p.m. the day after the Huskies’ regular-season finale against Seton Hall, prior to the Big East and NCAA tournaments.

Hurley was the first coach to lead his team to back-to-back national championships since Billy Donovan accomplished the feat at Florida in 2006-07. No program has won three titles in a row since John Wooden claimed seven consecutive championships at UCLA from 1967-73.

In the segment, “correspondent Jon Wertheim provides an inside look at coach Dan Hurley’s preparations, his strategies for managing a changing roster, and his preseason rituals,” according to a release. Hurley and his wife, Andrea, were each interviewed.

Hurley will also be featured in an E60 documentary titled “The Other Hurley,” which is set to air on March 15 at 11 a.m. on ESPN, with an extended version streaming after on ESPN+.
