Yann Hufnagel hired to be assistant coach of Nevada men's basketball team

RENO, Nev. -- Nevada has hired former California assistant coach Yann Hufnagel as an assistant.

The school announced the hiring Friday, a day after Hufnagel resigned from Cal amid allegations of sexual harassment from a reporter.

"I'm back doing what I love ... coaching basketball!" Hufnagel posted Friday on Twitter.

Hufnagel resigned a day before the results of a review were to be released and amid an outcry over the university's handling of sexual harassment claims against high-profile officials. The school gave Hufnagel a termination notice last month.

The university launched the inquiry into Hufnagel last year after a female journalist covering the team sent head coach Cuonzo Martin a long email in which she accused Hufnagel of making unwelcome advances.
