Maryland men’s basketball assistant coach Grant Billmeier has joined the head coaching ranks, leaving the Terps for the top gig at NJIT, a source close to the program confirmed to Testudo Times. Jeff Goodman of Stadium was first to report the news of an official deal on Wednesday.
Billmeier is the second Maryland assistant coach to accept a head coaching job this cycle; Tony Skinn was hired as George Mason’s coach on March 30. Maryland head coach Kevin Willard filled the void left by Skinn with former DeMatha Catholic High School coach Mike Jones, but he will need to add — or promote — another coach to fill out his top three.
