Brown head coach Mike Martin is leaving the school to be an assistant coach at Michigan, per a release.

Martin went 171-202 in 14 seasons as the head coach of his alma mater. He is responsible for the only 20-win season in school history and is widely regarded as one of the best X's and O's coaches in the Ivy League.

New Michigan head coach Mike Boynton still has at least one more spot to fill on his first staff, with Drew Williamson and Mody Maor following Dusty May to the Dallas Mavericks. Sources tell Basket Under Review that Boynton is interviewing multiple G League coaches and a handful of college assistants.

According to ESPN's Pete Thamel, Brown is expected to conduct a full search and make an outside hire rather than promote from within.
