Subject: Brian Ellerbe

This is an excerpt from a recent AP article about the decline of the Michigan hoops program.It could be argued the Ellerbe era is hurting the Wolverines as much as the booster scandal, which has lingered for nearly seven years:

Ellerbe went from being a secondary assistant to head coach in 1997 - one season after losing his job at Loyola (Md.) College. He succeeded Steve Fisher, who was forced out because of the program's involvement with Martin.

In 1999, Ellerbe signed five players, but only LaVell Blanchard and Gavin Groninger remain. The next year, he signed four players, and only Bernard Robinson has survived. In 2001, five more players were supposed to come help, and only Chuck Bailey is left.

Ellerbe has declined interview requests since he was fired following the 2000-01 season.
