DAYTON, Ohio – Bobby Hurley’s dark hair has started to turn gray. He is 25 years removed from his college playing days at Duke, but overall, the Arizona State coach is still an infant in his profession. Hurley is in just his fifth season, his third at ASU.
Contrast that with Jim Boeheim.
The Syracuse coach enters Wednesday’s NCAA Tournament First Four matchup against the Sun Devils in his 42nd season at his alma mater. Think about that: Hurley would have to coach in Tempe through 2057 just to match the Hall of Famer’s longevity at Syracuse.
