It’s said Temple hired former Bowling Green head basketball coach Michael Huger to be an assistant coach on Adam Fisher’s staff with the news arriving via Twitter from Dick Weiss — albeit with a slight typo — on Friday afternoon.

Huger and Fisher were both assistant coaches at Miami under head coach Jim Larrañaga from 2013-2015.

As the defensive coordinator, Huger guided the Hurricanes to a No. 11 national ranking in scoring defense in 2013-2014.

Huger, hired by Bowling Green in 2015, finished with a 126-125 record over an eight-year span. He was fired on March 5, after going 11-20 last season. He held previous stints as an assistant at Longwood and George Mason.
