There was asian guy who is a MU graduate and worked on Wojo staff. Does anyone know whatever happened to him?

If you mean Danny Mads, he joined Killings at Albany as DOBO.

Cam to USM.  In all seriousness, that isn't a bad idea.

I was kind of surprised Presutti went to USM to begin with. It’s not like he’s a local guy that would set down roots here, unless he met someone.

I can’t imagine USM is all that blindsided by this.

Edit: Looks like he was married before coming to MU. He has a young family, so maybe was looking at less travel. Still, seemed like an interesting move for a college assistant.

I think USM was blindsided by this to some degree. The guy was just announced a few weeks ago and there was some excitement about the hire.

If you don't have a decent job offer, you're not going to move.  But you have bills to pay so you have to try to find something locally that keeps you in the game.  I don't think it was more complex than this.

Tim O'Toole, Pitt's associate HC, was an assistant at Syracuse twice earlier in his career, but I don't think he overlapped with Presutti when he was a player or graduate manager.  However, I could see there being some familiarity there, or at least common contacts to help him get the position (which I believe is a new position at Pitt).  Or it could have been Wojo calling Capel to help out. 

Here's the job posting for the position - description feels like a lot of "miscellaneous tasks" unrelated to scouting.  https://ncaamarket.ncaa.org/jobs/15491446/assistant-athletic-director-of-scouting-mbb

If Cam got the same deal as Jake, it is also pretty good coin for a young guy.

My one take in this situation is USM must pay REALLY well.

Full time Substitute Teacher.
Coaches Salary
Camp Income

Overall not a bad gig for a young  single guy.

In my defense, I follow Pitt pretty closely, too (live here in Pittsburgh; family full of Pitt alum). 

But yes, actual MU basketball news can't come soon enough, as long as it's not injury news.

The job looks like a compilation of Presutti's entire career in basketball. So he is a very good fit. The Wojo Capel connection obviously got him in the door. Hopefully ,for Jake , Capel can keep his job for a few years.

Probably overqualified and likely making far less than he did as a full time assistant at MU.  But, it does keep his foot in the college basketball world.

GL to him.
Also, his hometown is only 4 hours away or so from Pitt.

Does this mean all of Wojo's staff are situated now outside of Milwaukee/Wisconsin?

Yes , with the exception of Todd who stayed on as Strength Coach and Cam Marrotta is coaching University School in Milwaukee.
