strange, but true
Katz writes:Cincinnati will hire Northeastern assistant Frank Martin, not head coach Ron Everhart, according to the Bearcat staff. Apparently, Cincinnati coach Bob Huggins originally called about Martin and then talked to Everhart about the opening. Everhart withdrew, but Martin remained interested.
Gregg Doyel was right, Huggins "suspension" was in name only. As for Everhart, count me among those quite intrigued by his interest in the Cincinnati position. How often does a sitting head coach actively pursue opportunities as an assistant?
