Rumors are swirling that GU has in fact hired David Cox to fill the Coach Broadus role as the program's lead local recruiter. The Coach Johnson role has supposedly also been filled with a third-year assistant out of Xavier, Kenya Hunter. Hunter, who also served as director of basketball operations for four years at NC State under Herb Sendak, has developed a great reputation as a lead recruiter at Xavier. I imagine he also picked up some Princeton offense knowledge as an assistant at NC State. Here is his bio: http://goxavier.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/mtt/hunter_kenya00.html
One significant black mark on this hire is Coach Hunter's DUI arrest two seasons ago. He was suspended for several games from the Xavier team because of this incident. http://frontier.cincinnati.com/blogs/ncaa/2006/01/xu-kenya-hunter-suspension-extended.asp
Update: Cox and Hunter hired. Welcome to the Hoya family!http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/sports/s_508317.html

Any truth to the rumor on the Hoya Talk boards that Aidan has signed a LOI for 2025? Congrats Jester!
Yes, congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Jester!
