In response to Full Bear
The examples of Ivy assistants who have gone on to be successful both in and out of the league are numerous. There have been a couple failures but the names that come instantly to mind are Dunphy, Thompson 111, Johnson, Donaghue, Robinson and Carmody. I think Jerome Allen will ultimately join this group in time and he was elevated from the unpaid asst position at Penn and had far less coaching experience than Mike Martin.
Brown's bb head coach likely earns near the bottom of the pay scale for D1 programs and the facility is unimpressive even for the league. Mike has his work cut for him. It's a challenge.
I think you're pretty lucky to get a quality person and coach like Mike Martin. I know we will miss him at Penn.
