Boylan landing the lead assistant job with the Bucks would make the MU-NBA connection a bit stronger....can't hurt. With Riley retiring there has to be some hope of Wade coming to Chicago as well. $100 says Crean contacted the Heat to see if he could land the job...it's Miami, it's Miami.
MU-Bucks always were at least passingly close. Phone #s would get exchanged. There were always off season pick up games b/w MU and Bucks players.
