Road Well-Traveled: Nomads Jankovich and McCullum Worked For 13 Schools

Seems as if it took a vagabond to know one. When Tim Jankovich joined Larry Brown at Southern Methodist as coach-in-waiting before moving over one chair to become bench boss, it paired two wanderlust mentors. New Florida A&M pilot Bobby McCullum is the only active coach to pack his suitcase as often for so many moves.

SMU is the fifth different university Jankovich has worked for in the state of Texas.
