Bill Courtney's stay at VCU as assistant men's basketball coach did not last very long.
On Tuesday it was reported that Courtney is leaving his post with the Rams to fill the vacant assistant coaching position at Virginia Tech.
The move comes after Courtney spent just two months after incoming VCU head coach Shaka Smart hired Courtney to work on his staff.
An official announcement is expected to be made Friday.
Courtney will replace Stacey Palmore, who resigned in early May to take the same position on Mark Fox's staff at the University of Georgia.
Courtney spent the last three seasons at Virginia under Dave Leitao, who resigned in March.
Before coming to Virginia, Courtney worked for Jim Larranaga at George Mason, where he recruited a large portion of the Patriot team that made their miracle run to the Final Four in 2006.
