Baker going into a fund raising role at 'Nova - translation: the school is 'all in' with the NIL factor in securing basketball players - The numbers are approaching $1 mil for some players - a real shame, imo

Clearly the "fund raising" has to do with basketball, given his new title.

Probably doesn't belong here but dropping in anyways because I don't think it deserves it's own thread --
FHCMB's guys continuing to do well. Nice to see.

As GM, I wasn't thinking fundraising. More like negotiating player contracts and salaries

Not sure why they need to create a title that heretofore didn't exist at the college level. Some senior associate/assistant AD title w/the same responsibilities would have worked. And, if you think about it, in this case the General Manager is going to answer more to the Head Basketball Coach than the other way around.

Assistant A.D. just sounds so amateur. If players are getting close to a million dollars as purplehaze stated, let's call it what it is

Ok, this made me chuckle - on the AE board, a comment from GoCatsGo after news of the addition (official?) of Jimmy Allen to Nathan Davis's staff at UNH:
"We're a Mike Brennan and Brett Nelson away from the New Hampshire Ex-Patriots, and I'm all in on it."

That's good for Sam and bad for us in DC as he was rumored to be considered for a spot on Duane Simpkins bench. Updated rumor is since we couldn't land Ferry we're settling for your Ops guy, all of this is unconfirmed. Someone I trust spoke well of Ferry so I was disappointed he didn't land with Simpkins but happy for him as I feel coaches develop quicker and better once they get a HC gig. Many at AU excited about Simpkins, most just were dying for a change. I'm in the minority that feel we completely blew the HC hire and lost a great opportunity to hire a proven winner as Johns Hopkins' Josh Loeffler was a finalist but lost out to Simpkins.

Will Brown to the College of Saint Rose…as their women’s coach.
Did this guy do something that no one knows about that has made him untouchable as a D1 men’s head coach?

That is the same school that Tobin Anderson coached at before FDU.

Long time WVU assistant Josh Eilert becomes the interim coach replacing Huggins. WVU did not have time for a long search when some of their players had entered the portal. None of them has committed elsewhere as if now.

None of them has committed elsewhere as if now. Eilert is an interesting choice, as he has exactly one year as an assistant coach. Prior to being named an assistant coach last year, he was a video coordinator for six years and a DOBO for nine years.

Just saw on the American board that Mike Brennan has joined Tavaras Hardy's staff as an assistant at Loyola.
