Rosemond hired as Indiana’s third assistant coach

New Indiana head coach Mike Woodson had three countable coaching positions to fill on his staff following his hiring on March 28.

Two and a half weeks into his tenure, all three spots have been addressed.

Kenya Hunter, a holdover from former coach Archie Miller’s staff, was first. Dane Fife, a former Hoosier guard and longtime Michigan State assistant, was second. And now, Woodson is turning to former Alabama assistant Yasir Rosemond for the third job.

Indiana made Rosemond’s hiring official on Wednesday, bringing Woodson’s bench staff whole. The 43-year-old Rosemond, who has not coached in college since 2019 when the Crimson Tide fired former head coach Avery Johnson, has also had stints at Georgia (2014-17), Samford (2012-14), Seattle (2010-11), Oregon (2006-2010) and Redlands Community College (2005-06).
