Minnesota Women’s Basketball: Coaching Search Updates

It’s now been nearly two weeks since Lindsay Whalen stepped down from coaching the Gophers women’s basketball program. A week ago we gave you a potential list of candidates for the job. Now, we can maybe potentially whittle down that list with the official publication of the Minnesota Women’s Head Coach job listing.

A look at some of the requirements in the listing shows that Mark Coyle is looking for a veteran head coach. The job description states as requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree.
  • Six seasons of head coaching experience at a Division I Institution or 14 season of assistant or associate coaching experience at a Division I institution.
