Daily Dirt – 5/10/22

On the move today – just a few quick things, more later…


A couple of D1 assistants in the mix at D2 Converse University (SC)…I have heard the final group includes Gardner-Webb assistant coach Andrew Brown, Wofford assistant Will Murphy, and a current D2 head coach. Sounds like an announcement is imminent. The trio is vying to Ryan Saunders, who became an assistant at Elon last month.


I have heard the leader at NJCAA D1 Dodge City CC is Northern Oklahoma Tonkowa head coach Brad Witherspoon. The former player at Kansas, who was part of the 2008 National Championship squad, led NOC Tonkawa to a 21-8 (12-4) record last season. Witherspoon has also has had a bunch of college assistant stops, and has also worked in the front office for the Oklahoma City Thunder. An official announcement here is expected shortly.
