this is still perfectly legal in CBB: You can pay $375,000 a year for an assistant to bring his kids.

Michael Porter Sr. signed a three-year, $1.125 million contract to be an assistant coach and brought instant basketball relevance with him in the form of his two sons.

Sr had been hired as an assistant at Washington for 2016-17 in order to bring his sons; the eldest boy (Jr) committed to UW. Then Counzo Martin was hired at Mizzou in March from Cal and immediately hired Sr on his staff. Jr flipped then signed an LOI at Mizzou and the other son is committed. Jr was the #1 player in the country according to Rivals.

After Sr decided to leave UW and with no chance of keeping Jr committed, the Huskies fired Lorenzo Romar.
