What are we hearing on Assistant Coach hires? I am guessing Coach will bring his top one or two from Point Loma with him.

We might see Zach Payne joining forces w. Coach Logie. He's currently on the Griz coaching staff, but was an assistant at Whitworth during the time that Logie was there as well. Payne has great b-ball pedigree, having played at DeLasalle HS in the Bay Area for Coach Frank Allocco, a legend in that area, much like Coach Logie's grandfather Ed Peppel was/is at Mercer Island.
For local fans, this will also add some extra spice to the already hot & spicy dish that is the Cat-Griz friendly rivalry

Looks like his right hand man is staying in San Diego and taking over the Point Loma program.

One thing for certain is no holdovers from Sprinkle's staff, as Johnny Hill has now also been removed from the MSU website. Coach Logie and the Director of Basketball Operations are looking a little lonely so far!

Msu got hit with a major cyber attack on Thursday. Normal pace of HR process before announcing coaches slowed even more than normal.

The Whitworth head coach is Damion Jablonski. Looks like he was an assistant with Logie at Lehigh for a year, went to Whitworth with Logie as an assistant, and then took over as head coach when Logie went to Point Loma.

Jablonski is an interesting guy. He grew up in Polson, has a degree in mechanical engineering, worked for Ford Motor company as a mechanical engineer before trying the coaching thing.

Whoa and not true! When did she say something like that?
Personally the only security I'm any good at goes click-boom and one needs to be very careful and judicious in using that.

Her early days when they had the tool from Norte Dame, DeWitt.
They didn’t need data security specialists, anyone could do eet.
Not her strongest hire, but they did get better.
