According to my man Scott Eisberg of WCIV TV in South Carolina, Charleston Southern assistant B.J. McKie has accepted a spot on the staff at East Tennessee State. He will replace Penny Collins who departed for Illinois State a few weeks ago.

McKie, a former standout at South Carolina, had been an assistant at Charleston Southern since 2011, and was promoted to associate head coach back in 2015. He and current ETSU assistant Brooks Savage are both graduates of Irmo (SC) high school.

More on this when it becomes official.
