New Campbell coach John Andrzejek will hire Alex Hill as his Director of Basketball Operations.
Hill was an assistant coach at Waynesburg University last season, and was a manager at Washington State when Andrzejek worked there as an assistant.

There is one thing that no one has and no one will ever question me on, and that’s my loyalty to Washington State. My loyalty to this school started before I could even remember and it is something I have carried with me my whole life.
All throughout grade school it was well known that I was ALWAYS wearing some sort of WSU gear. I told people that if they caught me not wearing WSU attire, that I would give them 20 dollars. To this day, as a senior at WSU, my friends (especially my girlfriend) make fun of me for still wearing Wazzu gear almost daily.
Being a Coug is the one thing I will always have, the one thing that will never go away. I am so proud of where I have seen our athletics programs go in my lifetime. Some of my first memories of WSU football was rushing the field against SMU. I am so thankful I got to see my team go from winning 1 or 2 games a year to seeing us win 11 games in a year and making 8 bowl games in the last 10 years.
It is very disappointing that the greed of major corporations has ruined the sports I love so much. Us fans deserve better. Our student athletes deserve better. Our coaching staffs deserve better.
As crazy as it is to say, this week has mentally been one of the hardest weeks of my life. The thought of losing so much of what I love because of the greed of others is heart breaking. I don’t blame @WSU_Cougar_Pres for this happening, but I hope he is able to work and find a solution for us. No matter what happens though, I will always be a Coug.
