The University of Louisville has engaged the services of DHR Global to assist in its search process for a new head men’s basketball coach.
“Identifying the right coach to lead our premier college basketball program is my focus,” said UofL Interim Director of Athletics Josh Heird. “With the assistance of DHR, which has extensive experience in the athletics search space, we will conduct a comprehensive, inclusive and expeditious search for the next head coach to lead our storied program.”
Glenn Sugiyama, Managing Partner, Global Sports Practice for DHR, will lead the DHR team assisting Louisville. Sugiyama, a former Division I college basketball coach and a former member of the Board of Directors of the Chicago Bulls, has been leading executive searches in the sports world for more than seventeen years.
“I am honored to help Josh and the University of Louisville in their search for a new head men’s basketball coach,” said Sugiyama. “The University has a rich tradition of athletics’ excellence and a storied basketball program, and I respect the importance of this search for the program, students and alumni.”
