More staff changes have been announced by SMU Basketball.
Just days after the program announced the hiring of Western Kentucky’s Shawn Forrest as a new assistant, former director of basketball operations Jay Duncan is being promoted internally to assistant coach as well.
Before coming to SMU, Duncan spent two seasons as a graduate assistant coach under Jay Wright at Villanova. Duncan also served as head coach of the Global Sports Academy U.S. team in the summer of 2015, leading the team to a 5-0 record on their European tour.
“Jay Duncan is one of the most passionate and loyal assistants we have worked with at Villanova,” Villanova Head Coach Jay Wright said in the announcement on the SMU Athletics website.
