As Arizona State University introduces Bobby Hurley as its new head basketball coach Friday, the University at Buffalo is already searching for Hurley's replacement.

Hurley's departure comes less than a month after leading UB to its first appearance in the NCAA basketball tournament.

Nate Oats, Hurley's top assistant and recruiting coordinator the past two seasons, will serve as Buffalo's interim head basketball coach while the Bulls look for a replacement for Hurley.

WBFO Morning Edition Host Jay Moran spoke with basketball writer Paul Gotham of PickinSplinters.com about Hurley's departure and what's next for UB.
