According to a TWEET from Jeff Goodman, Northwestern State is expected to hire Missouri State associate head coach Corey Gipson as their new head coach. He would replace Mike McConathy who announced his retirement last week after 23-seasons at NSU.

Gipson has been on Dana Ford’s staff at Missouri State for the past seven seasons. He has also been an assistant at his alma mater Austin Peay, UNCG, and Virginia State.

More on this one when it becomes official.
