A pair of former Tar Heels have reunited on the Cincinnati Bearcats’ bench.

Cincinnati Bearcats first-year head coach Wes Miller announced on Wednesday morning that C.B. McGrath would be hired as a special assistant to the team for the 2021-22 college basketball season. Details of the contract have not been released, but McGrath is the latest in a flurry of hirings that saw its staff grow by seven — assistant coaches Chad Dollar, Andre Morgan and Mike Roberts — on June 1.
