ASU Basketball: Bobby Hurley to become top candidate for St. John’s opening, according to reports

Would Bobby Hurley consider leaving the desert?

Before Monday night, there was no reason for speculation. But after Chris Mullin’s reported resignation at St. John’s, rumors have since circulated with Arizona State’s coach.

Just before tip-off in the NCAA Division 1 Men’s National Championship game, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reported that Hurley was expected to be “at the top of St. John’s list” to replace Mullin for the same position. The news was backed by Stadium’s Jeff Goodman and the New York Times’ Adam Zagoria, who claimed that Hurley was “the top target” for the Red Storm.
