Buffalo Extends Bobby Hurley Through 2018-2019 Season
In some unexpected news Tuesday morning, the University at Buffalo announced it has extended head men's basketball coach Bobby Hurley through the 2018-2019 season.
Hurley just wrapped up his first season at Buffalo. The Bulls went 19-10, winning their first ever outright (no ties) MAC East title. They fell in the MAC Tournament Quarterfinals to EMU, and didn't participate in any post-season tournaments.
Before last season Hurley signed a 5-year deal that ran through the 2017-2018 seasons, to replace Reggie Witherspoon.The extra year added onto Hurley's contract is a nice reward for a coach who surprised many in his rookie season, and should give Bulls fans some extra comfort in knowing Hurley is likely at UB for at least a few more seasons.
