UConn communications director Bobby Mullen has apologized to a Charlotte sports reporter for allegedly threatening to “ruin” his life after he posted an unflattering video of Huskies coach Dan Hurley in the aftermath of the team’s crushing second-round March Madness loss to Florida on Sunday.

A reporter captured a viral video of Hurley's profanity-laced rant following the Huskies' NCAA Tournament loss on Sunday.

But instead of walking back on those remarks, UConn went after the reporter who took and posted the video. According to Charlotte Sports Live, the station's reporter — Joey Ellis — was seated in press row when a furious UConn director of men's basketball communications Bobby Mullen demanded that Ellis delete the video.
