Busy day…gotta move fast here – just some quickies…
• Confirming what we mentioned last Friday (http://www.hoopdirt.com/blog/d4e2f6ef/coppin-state-rumor/…), Stillman head coach Michael Grant will indeed be named as the head coach at Coppin State. Press Conference is scheduled for 1:00 today. In fact, Stillman has already posted the job announcement for Grant’s position. We will add it to our jobs section later today. **UPDATE: Job now posted in our jobs section: http://hoopdirt.com/job/648e0480/head-coach-stillman-college… **
• Penn head coach Jerome Allen has two assistant spots to fill on his staff. I have heard that former Boston College associate head coach Nat Graham is involved with one of those spots. He is a 1997 Penn grad and has also been an assistant at Cornell. It also sounds like assistant DBO Mike Lintulahti is in the mix to get bumped up into the other spot.
• UNC-Greensboro has hired Chris LePore as a graduate assistant. He was previously worked as a student on the staff at Belmont.
