Kevin Keatts filled one vacancy on his staff with Levi Watkins earlier this month and is set to complete his staff with Clemson assistant Kareem Richardson. Keatts and Richardson have a relationship dating back to their time together on staff at Louisville.
Richardson has extensive experience coaching at the college level—he got his start at the University of Indianapolis in 1997, working his way through various stops to Louisville in 2012, and then got a head coaching opportunity at Missouri-Kansas City in 2013.
At UMKC, Richardson coached big man Danny Dixon, who you no doubt remember transferred to NC State to play sparingly for Kevin Keatts in 2020.
