Bobby Hurley remained stoic after Arizona State's 70-60 upset of No. 14 Kansas, walking calmly through the postgame celebration rather than joining the court-storming fans. The victory marked a potential final home game for Hurley, who enters the final season of his contract with his job security in question.

Moe Odum led the Sun Devils with 23 points, and teammates praised Hurley as "the greatest coach that's ever coached me." Despite entering the season needing an NCAA tournament berth to secure his position, ASU fell short with a 16-14 record. Hurley downplayed any personal storyline, insisting the focus was on his team's resilience after struggling through Big 12 play.

The win evoked memories of ASU's previous upsets over Kansas, including victories at Allen Fieldhouse in 2017 and at home against a No. 1-ranked Jayhawks team. With Kansas' Bill Self ejected for arguing a call, ASU built a 20-point lead before holding off a late Jayhawks rally. Whether Hurley's tenure ends here or continues, his players showed the fight and determination that defined his coaching career.
