Calhoun replaces Danny Sprinkle, the latest in a long line of coaches who have left Logan after experiencing success.
“The Aggies became my favorite team last year,” Calhoun said. “I told Coach Sprinkle this two nights ago. We talked for an hour and a half. I fell in love with this group of players.” And so Calhoun’s tenure at Utah State’s head coach began on Tuesday, with bold proclamations and trying desperately to ingratiate himself to a fanbase that has gotten dizzy from the coaching carousel.
Diana Sabau,Vice President & Athletics Director leads the coaches in the Aggie fight song, during a news conference introducing Wesley Brooks and Jerrod Calhoun as the AggiesÕ new womenÕs and menÕs basketball head coaches, at Utah State University, in Logan, on Tuesday, April 2, 2024. Calhoun, in many ways, is quite similar to Sprinkle. The former Utah State head coach was known as a grinder, obsessive about basketball.And Calhoun spouted the same beliefs. He said his criteria for an assistant coach is somebody who is willing to sacrifice days and nights.
He built a winner at Youngstown State with an efficient offense. His best team in 2023 had a top-50 offense in Division I. Calhoun has never been to the tournament, but he did win the Horizon League.
