Hurley has been dominant at the college basketball level, leading the Huskies to back-to-back National Championships.
Hurley has made it clear he is also a big-time Bengals fan and is now getting the opportunity to express his fandom in front of Who Dey Nation.
Next weekend, we will be rocking in Cincinnati, and Hurley will be there to pump up a crowd ready for football season!
