Message: [QUOTE="nwhoopfan, post: 2769768, member: 7894"] Romar was an assistant at Arizona (one year only, now head coach at Pepperdine again where he got his first head coaching gig). Porter followed his dad to Mizzou when pops was hired as an assistant by Cuonzo Martin. The well traveled Mr. Porter was previously an assistant for Missouri women's team, then hired by Romar at UW, then let go and went back to Mizzou. What a strange saga all that was. It gets even weirder if you look at the one year Porter, Jr. spent at Nathan Hale HS in Seattle. They had literally no tradition in hoops, ever. Porter and a bunch of other studs transferred in, first year coach Brandon Roy (former UW and Blazers star) cruised to an undefeated season and a State Championship. Then Roy and all the players bailed after 1 season at Hale and they went back to sucking again. [/QUOTE]
