When Rob Murphy isn't coaching his Eastern Michigan men's basketball team, he is giving back to the school and community that helped form him.
Murphy, the Detroit native, created the Rob Murphy Foundation in 2014 and his hope is to help kids in underserved areas.
“We started the foundation with the goal in mind to help the underprivileged youths in Detroit,” Murphy said. “Bagley Elementary is where we started the pilot program.”
