[autotag]Bobby Hurley[/autotag] makes his return to Cameron Indoor Stadium next month, and according to a Wednesday report from CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein, Blue Devils fans around the country can watch him coach against his alma mater.
Rothstein said the scrimmage between Duke and Hurley’s Arizona State Sun Devils, which tips off at 7:00 p.m. on October 27, will air on ACC Network.
The scrimmage, which was confirmed on August 21, will raise money for the Duke Children’s Hospital.
Hurley has been the head coach at Arizona State since the 2015-16 season, and the Sun Devils have four 20-win campaigns and three NCAA Tournament appearances with him at the helm. Arizona State struggled down the stretch last season, losing 11 of their final 14 games after an 11-7 start, but Hurley led his squad to 23 wins and a semifinal appearance in the Pac-12 conference tournament in 2022-23.
