Perhaps its either or regarding Hsu and Borman. Gotta remember its just as much about recruiting as it is coaching and he probably wants familiarity.

Cleveland maybe coming in an ops role.

Bottom line is they are going to have a staff up and down who have experience in recruiting in college and grass roots basketball.

Hope not. I am not a fan of hiring family. Never hire someone you can't fire.
 
Cleveland seems like a great coach whether he’s family or not, it’s not like with Jarvis when we got stuck with the Deuce!!

I believe he's a protege, instead of relative as mentioned by SJU61982 and Paultz.
 
[quote="MJDinkins" post=344952]TJ Cleveland's bio:[/quote]

Edit: articles I read saidbhe was a former player for Anderson.
Related or not, that’s a good bio. I like this

“became known as a tireless worker and recruiter”

I just read that SJU is looking to hire Andy Borman as ass't coach in July. I never heard of Andy but read that he is connected to an AAU team who have a number of players that SJU is recruiting.
This is the most sensible statement I have read about SJU in four years.

It’s more than that. He is a Duke grad and married to Coach K’s daughter. He helps run the NY Rens but is also qualified for the asst role.

If I'm not mistaken, I think his mother is Coach K's wife's sister. Had trouble just typing that out, ha.
