As coach Bobby Hurley entered the media room at Wells Fargo Arena, a television behind him showed freshly-cut highlights of his Sun Devils 78-64 win against Oregon.
Multiple media members tried to turn off the screen in hopes of beginning the postgame press conference, their attempts futile. Sporting a grin, Hurley picked up the remote, lowered the volume and began speaking.
A lighthearted encounter, the fourth-year coach was enjoying the moment. Understandable, given he earned his first win against Oregon in six tries and ASU is off to its best start in Pac-12 play of his tenure.
