Phil Forte is headed back to where his coaching career started, to serve under both his former boss and coach
OSU’s three-point king was added to Travis Ford’s staff at Saint Louis, the university announced on Tuesday. It is his second courtside stint with the Billikens.
Forte was recruited by Ford to OSU and spent his first four years under his tutelage (included a medical redshirt season). He played his final season under Brad Underwood.
“I have been fortunate to be around Phil for many years and I know of his great work ethic, his commitment to the players, and his commitment to the game,” Ford said according to the release.
