Amaker is going to be introduced as Michigan's coach Friday, said a source close to Seton Hall, who spoke to Amaker by telephone. The source spoke on the condition of anonymity. In Ann Arbor, officials at Michigan said final details were being worked out to hire a replacement for Ellerbe. Michigan officials declined comment on Fogelson's statement. Ty Shine had a feeling something was happening Wednesday morning when the team was gathered quickly.
People are in different situations and have to do the best they can for themselves.
It is probably the decision that Coach Amaker feels is best for him. Michigan's assistant coaches were not fired along with Ellerbe, but it will be up to the next coach whether they will be retained. Terence Greene, one of the three assistants, said he was unaware of whether Amaker was going to be Michigan's next coach. He's a great recruiter and he relates well with people. Amaker, who will be 36 in June, posted a 68-55 record in four seasons at Seton Hall.
