Ex-Michigan coach Ellerbe joins GW as assistant

Former Michigan coach Brian Ellerbe is returning to the bench after an eight-year absence.

WASHINGTON —

Former Michigan coach Brian Ellerbe is returning to the bench after an eight-year absence.

Ellerbe was hired Thursday as an assistant at George Washington, joining the staff of head coach Karl Hobbs.

Ellerbe was fired in 2001 after four years with the Wolverines. He took the team to the NCAA tournament in his first season in Michigan, but the team slumped over the following three years and his final record was 62-60 - only 26-38 in the Big Ten.

Ellerbe has since been working as a basketball consultant for collegiate and youth programs and as the vice president for corporate development for Madison Grace Construction Services in Bowie, Md., where he went to high school.

Before joining Michigan, Ellerbe went 34-47 over three seasons at Loyola College in Baltimore. He has also been an assistant at Virginia, South Carolina, George Mason, Bowling Green and Rutgers.
