Hurley is also known for his distinctive hairstyle which he sported in his later Minutemen and fIREHOSE days, a protruding clump of hair that he nicknamed "The Unit".

 Hurley speaks about the controversy By Wayne Harrison Acorn Sports Writer
Hurley, in his 15th year as Panther head coach next fall, recently said he believed Westlake head coach Jim Benkert shouldn’t play transfer quarterback Rudy Carpenter, a senior, next fall regardless of whether or not Carpenter is deemed eligible by the CIF.

Hurley said that Carpenter and his father, Scott, are saying now that a reason for the transfer was Hurley’s attitude.

 Voices carry Minutemen documentary - The Boston Globe - Boston.com - Living / Arts - News
The Minutemen were the most interesting, humorous, and ideologically energized band to emerge from the California punk rock scene of the early '80s.
A San Pedro trio composed of Dennes ''D." Boon on guitar/vocals, Mike Watt on bass/vocals, and George Hurley on drums, they played spiky, quick-witted agit-funk that owed as much to Captain Beefheart as it did to English post-punkers such as Wire and the Pop Group.
They always had colds.") Along the way, we learn that the brilliant squeal of D. Boon's guitar was based on a ''political decision" to separate treble and bass -- a detail that seems to capture the Minutemen in all their cranky materialism.
