The Wolverine has learned that Michigan assistant basketball coach Billy Donlon has accepted an assistant coaching position with the Northwestern basketball program.

During the one year Donlon was a coach at Michigan the team went 26-12 overall and won the Big Ten Tournament. Michigan brought Donlon in for his reputation as a defensive coach, and the team ranked No. 45 in scoring defense in 2016-17. Prior to joining the Wolverine coaching staff under John Beilein, Donlon spent 10 years with Wright State, spending his final six years as the head coach.

Donlon is the second Michigan assistant to leave the program this off-season, with Jeff Meyer leaving to join former Michigan assistant LaVall Jordan at Butler.
