TEMPE, Ariz.— On Friday, Arizona State men’s basketball coach Bobby Hurley hired Greg Lansing, a long-time Indiana State men’s basketball head coach and former NBA scout for the Philadelphia 76ers. Lansing will become special assistant to Hurley for the 2023-24 season. Often gathering film, analyzing player development and conducting recruitment strategy within the team, it is likely that Lansing works side by side with Hurley in those categories at ASU.
Lansing’s been involved with the Indiana State men’s basketball program since 2006, including 11 seasons where he was head coach. The Sycamores qualified for postseason tournaments four times under Lansing, which featured a 2010 NCAA Tournament appearance, a 2012 College Basketball Invitational appearance as well as NIT tournament appearances in 2013 and 2014.
