Just four days after the departure of Eric Musselman, Nevada has officially named Steve Alford the new head coach of the Wolf Pack.
Alford, 54, has accumulated a 509-269 record over 24 years as a head coach. He’s made 11 career NCAA Tournament appearances, but has failed to reach the Elite Eight.
“To be able to continue my career in a tight-knit community that has demonstrated its support for the basketball program is exactly the opportunity that Tanya and I were looking for, and we are thrilled to be in Northern Nevada,” Alford said in a press release.
