Washington Hires Michael Porter Sr., Father of Class of 2017 Star
Posted May 6, 2016
Washington made a splash in recruiting on Friday, but it wasn’t for landing a commitment from a player. The Huskies have hired Missouri women’s basketball assistant coach Michael Porter Sr. to be an assistant on the men’s team, according to a report Rivals.com. This is important because Michael Porter Jr. is a five-star prospect and the potential No. 1 player in the Class of 2017.
