WSU assistant coach interviews could begin this weekend

Wright State basketball coach Billy Donlon hopes to begin interviewing candidates for three open positions on his staff as soon as this weekend.

In all, Wright State has posted five assistant coaching jobs on its website, including two for men’s basketball and three for women’s basketball for new coach Mike Bradbury, who was hired from Morehead State on April 21.

After he was promoted from assistant to head coach on April 14, Donlon promoted former director of basketball operations Scott Woods to assistant coach. By law, a promotion from within can occur without a search, Donlon said.

That leaves Donlon with two assistant spots and a director of basketball operations job to fill.

“I’m pleased about the many candidates,” Donlon said. “The pool is filled with qualified people that are excited about both Wright State University and our men’s basketball program.”

The updated Wright State basketball roster and coaching list does not include Victor Ebong, an assistant under former coach Brad Brownell.

“Vic, who is a dear friend and a great teammate, is exploring several options, including options outside of basketball,” Donlon said.

Brownell has included former WSU assistant Mike Winiecki on his staff at Clemson, which opened one of the assistant coaching spots.

Steve “Moon” Moore is a great choice here. If Steve gets no love, Dunbar is the next place to look. Renaldo O’Neal is a Wright St alum. Coach Powell is as good as they come. Richard Brown would be a nice “get” for Wsu.

How about Wade O’Connor former assistant at UD now at Western Carolina. He has ties to the Dayton community as well as I hear he is a relentless recruiter and connects well with the players. He comes from good stock…was with Billy Donovan at Marshall and OP at Dayton! Just a thought…check out his bio at WCU!
