Virginia Tech head coach Mike Young lost his top assistant last week when Chester Frazier left the Hokies to return to his alma mater, Illinois.
Instead of Young going the traditional route and finding an up-and-coming young college assistant or a veteran former head coach, Young is reportedly looking to the high school ranks.
According to Pete Thamel of Yahoo Sports, Virginia Tech is targeting DeMatha Catholic (Maryland) head coach Mike Jones to be its new associate head coach.
This would be a huge hire for Young. And, it is proof Young gets it.
