During Bobby Hurley's introductory press conference at ASU, Michael Crow took the time to take some digs at the Arizona Wildcats.
It all started when Zack Rosenblatt asked a question Hurley about the rivalry.
Michael Crow just called me out as being from Tucson and asking a question about the ASU-UA rivalry.

Which led to....
Crow on the rivalry: "Ask him how it’s gone lately."

"I got a feel for it already just from the brief amount of time I've been in town"- Hurley on intensity of ASU-UA rivalry.

Sure, ASU is 9-8 against Arizona in the last 17 meetings. But is a program's success based on its performance against one school?
ASU president Michael Crow took shot at Arizona in presser saying Wildcats trying to "make it .500", referring to ASU 9-8 vs UA since 2008.

Look, Michael Crow is right. ASU basketball did pretty well against Arizona under the coach they just fired.
