It looks like Southfield Arts and Tech is making some moves.
The Warriors according to numerous and accurate sources and confirmed by MIPrepZone's Scott Burnstein will name Terrence Porter as their new Boys Basketball coach. Porter takes over for Coach Darreyle Buchanan whom step down this past spring.
Porter was an assistant coach at Harper Woods with his brother TaJuan Porter whom coached them. The Pioneers won a district crown last season.
Porter was the head coach at Farmington. He was 128-108 in his 11 seasons with the Falcons.
Southfield Arts and Tech was 7-15 overall. The Warriors fell to Livonia Stevenson in the district semifinals at North Farmington last season.
Porter will have a ton of experience in Davier Burt, Greg Davis, Quantie Pryor, Ethan Taylor, Bryce Hewins, Nicholas Hardy, Matt Young, and Juwan Ramsey coming back.
Southfield Arts and Tech should be one of the favorites in the Gold this season. The Warriors have to play Porter's brother TaJuan twice with Harper Woods, along with Avondale, Royal Oak, Ferndale University, and Pontiac. They are in a very difficult district at North Farmington which has North Farmington, Porter's former school Farmington, Detroit Henry Ford, and Livonia Stevenson.
Porter brings a ton of coaching experience to Southfield. Program strength is a concern for the Warriors. This is an area that he needs to address with his new program. We shall see what happens with Porter and Southfield Arts and Tech this season.
