Nobody gets ejected from basketball games quite like Bobby Hurley does.

Last season, the Arizona State Sun Devils men's basketball coach was tossed in the second half of ASU's game vs. rival Arizona in Tempe. His exit from the court was quite dramatic.

Hurley hadn't been ejected from a game since then -- until Saturday's matchup vs. New Mexico State in Tempe.

NMSU was kind enough to give ASU a free point before the game thanks to a boneheaded mistake -- but Hurley returned the favor and then some in the second half when he picked up two technical fouls, including his second with just under 10 minutes to play, resulting in the ejection.

Hurley wasn't quite as animated as he left the court this time, but he still left in entertaining fashion.

The Sun Devils went on a brief scoring run after Hurley's ejection, but they fell short to the Aggies 81-70 on Saturday night to fall to 6-5 on the season.

Hurley and the Devils will return to the court Tuesday when they host undefeated No. 10 Creighton at 7 p.m. Arizona time.
