Bearcats add Martin to coaching staff 
---------------------------------


By Bill Koch
Enquirer staff writer

Frank Martin joined the University of Cincinnati basketball coaching staff today as an assistant coach replacing associate head coach Dan Peters, who left UC in July to join Thad Matta's staff at Ohio State. 
Martin, 38, has spent the last four years at Northeastern University, the last three under head coach Ron Everhart, who withdrew from consideration for the UC job. 
Before his tenure at Northeastern, Martin won three state championships and posted a 102-10 record at Miami (Fla.) Senior High School. 
"We needed an East Coast presence going into the Big East," said UC coach Bob Huggins. "He gives us that. He's got great ties in the state of Florida, so he'll be able to get us into a recruiting area that previously we weren't able to get into." 
In addition to his recruiting duties, Martin will work with the UC big men. 
"This is one of the top 10 programs in the country," Martin said. "This is a dream job."
