Portland Trailblazers Asst. Coach & His Hofstra Connection
Posted: Fri Apr 26, 2019 6:00 pm
If you're looking for a team to root for the rest of the way in the NBA playoffs, I offer the Portland Trailblazers because of the connection between their assistant coach Jim Moran, Hofstra (indirectly), my co-worker and me.
Turns out, my co-worker is the brother of Jim Moran, who played at William & Mary (two head coaches before Tony Shaver) after he was high school teammates with Jay Hernandez. My co-worker says Jim and Jay are still pretty good friends and that Jim very nearly transferred from W&M to play at Hofstra.
This, by the way, is about a month after I learned my girlfriend works with the mother of one of JWF's best friends, Austin Volkens.
We live in a small world sometimes.
