Nine months after he was fired from his position as the boys basketball coach at Garfield High in Seattle, former Portland Trail Blazers all-star Brandon Roy is back.
In a KOMO report, it was announced that Roy had been rehired to his old position.
Roy, a Garfield alum, was fired last September following allegations that he had been a part recruiting push that involved an NBA agent who offered a student a car, money and an apartment if he transferred to Garfield.
While Roy denied those allegations, he was fired two days later.
The Seattle Times reported in March that emails and other records had been obtained detailing why Roy had been fired. Roy also sent a letter to the paper pushing back that he had been fired and would be able to reapply to his old position down the line.
