Then in May of this year, he takes the GIRL'S head basketball coaching job at Wayne high school. Would this be considered a move up the coaching carousel? Has there ever been a top men's college basketball coach who has moved to coach the LADIES division 1 basketball program at the same school?

FWIW, I reffed one of the Wayne girl's games 2 weekends ago at the RecPlex/UD team camp. His daughter is the 2nd best girl on the team and is an insane ball handler and intense defender. She'll play D1 somewhere and will be deserving of the scholarship.
