Derek Kellogg was my first choice to replace Travis Ford. Kellogg is a UMass alum, played for John Calipari and has been coaching with him for six years. He is a good recruiter and was named a top 10 assistant coach by Rivals.com. Memphis and UMass played a similar offensive system and so the transition should be smooth. I would guess that Kellogg and UMass are on the same page with contract terms given his connections with the school. This is a great choice for UMass and I expect them to continue the improvement that Ford started.
