The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga men’s basketball team will hire former UNC-Wilmington director of basketball operations Kevin Easley as their new assistant coach, according to multiple media outlets late Monday evening.
Easley played collegiately at Austin Peay from 1997-2001 before coaching stops at Tennessee-Martin, UNC Greensboro, High Point and UNC Asheville prior to his most recent stop at Wilmington.
He replaces Reggie Witherspoon, who left recently to become the head coach at Canisius.
