Ali Farokmanesh to Drake as an assistant. Smart move by him to secure his future before Miles is let go after next season.
 
That's a loaded statement. He was a graduate assistant and had an opportunity for a full-time gig.
He was Director of Player Relations starting June 2016 not a GA. I get your point, but if/when Tim gets fired how many staffers are retained with the new coach? Why stick around and take the risk?

My error on the GA title, but he wasn't an actual coach, and was offered the chance to become one at Drake. There are multiple ways to spin the move, and without knowing what was behind his motivation, I don't want to speculate on his behalf.
 
Both guys moving on are doing so for the opportunity to actually get on the court and coach.

Amyone reading more into it than that needs to check their agenda.
 
Or you could ask, would both coaches still have left had the team made the NCAA tourney this year and no/minimal transfers out?
 
Stinks to lose Ali, he was one of the assistants that I thought would leave much sooner for a better gig. This leaves the door open for Miles to hire someone. My advice: get another offensive assistant!
