Current Lafayette High School assistant coach Andre Mahorn has been tabbed as the new assistant at Georgetown College. Mahorn, like K.C. Goodin – who he is replacing, knows exactly what it means to be a part of the Tiger nation.



“To know Georgetown and recruit for Georgetown, you must understand how special Georgetown is, you have to be a part of it,” Osborne said. “I have a lot of respect for coach (Mike) Krzyzewski and how he runs his program at Duke. Even though we are on different levels, I think our schools have many similarities in that they are both excellent academically, have a lot of tradition, and the students that attend have tremendous pride in their institution. Because of that, Coach K hires his players. Andre Mahorn understands Georgetown, how special it is here. We are not just NAIA; we are Georgetown. There is a difference.”



Mahorn, a forward, helped Georgetown to a final four appearance in 2002-03.



“Having played here and knowing the success that it brings to college basketball, not just the NAIA but basketball period, I just thought it was a great place to be a part of history,” Mahorn said. “I think it is a great opportunity. Coach really gave me a chance both times, as a player and now as a coach, and I’m joining one of the best staffs in the state of Kentucky. This is a great opportunity for me to grow.”
