George Washington hires Donyell Marshall

per Jeff Goodman on twitter:

George Washington has hired former UConn and NBA player Donyell Marshall - which means Kevin Ollie expected to be joining UConn staff soon.

Had read on the GW board that KH was close to naming a replacement for Brian Ellerbe. Marshall has quite a resume - albeit primarily in the NBA - and he and Hobbs are reunited for the first time since their UConn days. Looks like a good hire.

Marshall still holds the school's single-game records for points (855), field goals made (307) and free throws made (200).

That’s a hell of a game. It must have received little press because I do not remember it.
