That Atlanta Celtics connection has to be big, right?

THE FLATS – Former Georgia Tech player B.J. Elder, a standout member of the Yellow Jackets’ 2004 NCAA runner-up team, has joined the men’s basketball staff as associate director of player personnel, head coach Josh Pastner announced.

I had to re-read to see what his position was. Hope he makes a big splash there.

Is that a position that can be involved with recruiting?

Looks like it’s a large part of what they do

It’s the position Rio vacated. Most of what I saw was Rio working out the existing team. They are not allowed to actively recruit as far as off campus to my knowledge.

One of my all-time favorite GT players!

A great hire.

Loved BJ Elder. I’m assuming this is a great addition.

Another good move by CJP!

We had one and fired him one year after he won 20+ games.

Hewitt

Coach AND recruit. That was his issue.

And cares....and gets along with boosters, and cares about APR............

You will never sell me on the thought that Hewitt should have been retained any longer.

Agree. But that was not the question.

The Hewitt didn't care thing is pure nonsense. In terms of the APR the turn around started under him and was always going to go up under the next coach because of how it is calculated, as a rolling average.

Hewitt had to be fired to get us out of the contract (we had to do it at some point), but it’s hard to imagine the last ten years would have been any worse had we kept him.
