Roadrunner Family:  

 

I am excited to share with you that we have named Austin Claunch the seventh head coach in UTSA men’s basketball history.  

 

Austin, currently an assistant coach at Alabama, had great success in five years as the head coach at Nicholls, including 90 wins and a pair of Southland Conference Championships. Austin’s hometown is Houston and we are so excited to welcome him back home to the Lone Star State.  

 

Austin has high energy, a relentless work ethic and a strong basketball IQ. But what really stood out to me is that, when we talked to people about Austin, what kept coming up time and again was his unique ability to connect with people from all backgrounds and build great relationships.  

 

Austin is completely aligned with my vision and our values as a department and as an institution. He will be a terrific leader of our student-athletes. I am confident that Austin will elevate our program to new heights.  

 

Austin will continue to coach the Crimson Tide through their NCAA Tournament run and will join us in San Antonio once Alabama’s season has concluded. We will formally welcome Austin at a public event at that time where you will have an opportunity to meet him.  

 

Please join me in welcoming Austin as the head coach of the UTSA men’s basketball program.  

 

Birds Up!

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Agreed. But I can understand them trying to get this game in today. If they do it....WSU can get home a day early....instead of having to stay around. Will try to make it too....won't be there at the start though. Go Mean Green!!!

      Three really nice touches for Senior Weekend 1) All ten senior players numbers in big white letters on the field. 5 of them in foul territory going from home plate up to 3rd.....the other five going from home plate up to 1st. 2) Having moms and dads of the seniors all throw out "ceremonial" first pitches......to their kiddos. 3) And honoring WSU's 8 or so seniors....by having our players present them all with one white rose and one yellow rose. (their team colors).....very classy.

      What does this mean for the UNT MGRN Football broadcasts? Back to the Range? Move to Indie? Stay on 97.1 The Eagle? https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/971-the-freak-to-return-to-rock-radio-format-fires-mike-rhyner-19223461?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0zXtMP28HrxpYuJk3RMh5NChxM3J1A8U4HEhIaH8rPvbcbp_x6wXvZbQo_aem_AR8QwvzOxOtEPsHQk2as9eqIjNoX5tSo7au7sOtB67N6Y-5amNndr8ndsyY_VMHXzTWrX5hKgYdBqZPMps4_yhdW
