By DAN GELSTON AP Sports Writer
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Jefferson University coach Herb Magee is ready to return for another season on the bench.  He has 1,123 victories at the Division II school. Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski is the only college basketball coach in all divisions with more wins at 1,170. Magee turned 80 this week. Jimmy Reilly is Magee’s long-time assistant coach and he has already been approved as the program’s successor but there’s no timeline on when he will retire.  Magee ended his playing career at Philadelphia Textile as the school’s career leading scorer with 2,235 points.
