Guard and coach reach 'mutual' agreement

DeKALB — Sometimes the reason for a break up is as simple as “It’s not you, its me.”

For former sophomore guard Marshawn Wilson and NIU, this appears to be a strange case where there doesn’t seem to be a reason.

Before Tuesday’s game against Ball State University at the Convocation Center, Mark Montgomery, men’s basketball head coach, announced the Huskies and Wilson have mutually decided to part ways.

It seems strange to use the word “mutually” when the only comment by Montgomery at Tuesday’s postgame press conference appeared to indicate that it was in Wilson’s best interest to leave the team.
