Arizona State not renewing coach Bobby Hurley's contract after 11 up-and-down seasons

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Bobby Hurley’s tenure as Arizona State’s coach is over after 11 up-and-down seasons. Arizona State athletic director Graham Rossini announced on Wednesday that Hurley’s contract will not be renewed, just hours after the Sun Devils’ blowout loss to No. 7 Iowa State in the Big 12 tournament. Hurley will be placed on paid administrative leave through the remainder of his contract, which ends in June.

Arizona State fell well short, finishing 12th out of 16 teams in the Big 12 at 7-11 and 17-16 overall. Hurley finished 185-167 at Arizona State.
