Description

Coach Bob Hurley ran one of the most successful programs in high school basketball. St. Anthony High School in Jersey City, NJ, won dozens of state championships before closing in 2017, but Hurley told 60 Minutes in 2011 that his biggest accomplishment was that only two of his players — in 39 years — didn’t go to college. "60 Minutes" is the most successful television broadcast in history. Offering hard-hitting investigative reports, interviews, feature segments and profiles of people in the news, the broadcast began in 1968 and is still a hit, over 50 seasons later, regularly making Nielsen's Top 10.

This is a beautiful expose of a man who stays put to mold youngsters into good people and basketball players because that is what he values. I often think people who become great is due to passion and hard work. He has and is creating a wonderful legacy. I am very much proud of him.

I would've started laughing if while his 20 month old grandson shot the ball he started coaching him like he coaches his player's on St. Anthony's. 😂
