EVANSVILLE, Ind. – University of Evansville head men's basketball coach David Ragland has announced that Roosevelt Jones has been elevated to Director of Player Development for the Purple Aces.

Jones joined the program in the summer of 2022 and served as the Director of Basketball Operations last season. Before coming to Evansville, Jones was an Assistant Coach at the University of Indianapolis and IU-Kokomo.

"Rose is as competitive a person that I have been around. The fact that he has completely owned the responsibilities of Director of Basketball Operations as passionate as he did this past season was vital to our program," Ragland said.
