Bobby Hurley interview 309x195 Interview: Bobby Hurley calls Jalen Roses comments on Duke ignorant

What better way to kick off our tournament coverage here on Guyism than to chat with two-time NCAA National Champion and former Duke legend Bobby Hurley. Hurley, now an assistant coach with Wagner, spoke to us yesterday about a wide range of issues including tournament expansion and the recent comments Jalen Rose made about his Blue Devils.

The comments, which were made by Rose during the taping of a Fab Five documentary will air this Sunday on ESPN. For those not aware of what was said, here’s a brief excerpt.

“For me, Duke was personal. I hated Duke. And I hated everything I felt Duke stood for. Schools like Duke didn’t recruit players like me. I felt like they only recruited black players that were Uncle Toms.”

To Hurley’s credit, he remained professional in his response but hilariously reminded me that Rose and the Fab Five went 0-3 against Duke, so in some ways, he understood his frustration.
