Bob Cantu, the UTEP Miners' top assistant basketball, is leaving the program.
The veteran coach will join the University of Portland men’s basketball coaching staff as an assistant coach and will work with head coach Terry Porter. Cantu spent the last three seasons as an assistant coach at UTEP and the previous 12 seasons at USC as an assistant coach, associate head coach and interim head coach.
Cantu has 19 years of college coaching experience and has regularly been rated as one of the top assistant coaches in the country.
“Bob brings a wealth of knowledge to our staff,” Porter said.
