Dollar Resigns, Could Be Bound for Georgia

Cameron Dollar resigned Thursday as Southern California College basketball coach and is expected to be named an assistant at Georgia under his former college coach, Jim Harrick.

Dollar would not comment on his resignation and SCC Athletic Director Bob Wilson said only that Dollar was taking a major Division I assistant position. But sources in Georgia and others close to Dollar said the former UCLA guard had indicated that he would jump at an offer to work for his former coach. Dollar helped UCLA to a 31-2 record and an NCAA title in 1995 under Harrick, who was fired the following year.

Harrick was hired at Georgia on April 1 after two seasons at Rhode Island.

Dollar, an assistant at UC Irvine in 1997-98, was 11-22 in his only season at SCC. The Vanguards finished sixth in the Golden State Athletic Conference.

Wilson said that he hopes to name a coach within 10 days.
