An Arizona State representitive said Freeman was no longer with the team Sunday. One of the ejections was prompted due to a Freeman head-butt of Arizona star Caleb Love. Hurley eventually pulled his players off the floor prior to the end of the game.

Arizona State athletic director Graham Rossini previously expressed complete confidence in Hurley, but since then the team has lost 11 of 13 games, which makes keeping him around a much tougher argument to make.
