Report: Saint Peter’s Looking at Rutgers Assistant Brandin Knight for Coaching Opening

Saint Peter’s has become quite the household name in college basketball after their historic Elite Eight run in the NCAA tournament this year.

Following their loss on Sunday to UNC, coach Shaheen Holloway left Saint Peter’s to take over the leading role at his alma mater, Seton Hall.

While Holloway’s official replacement has yet to be announced, Adam Zagoria reported on Thursday that the Peacocks are targeting Rutgers assistant Brandin Knight for the role.

Knight played for Pittsburgh from 1999—2003. In his junior season, he was named to the Wooden All-American team and was a second-team Sporting News All-American and third-team AP All-American.
