Five potential candidates to lead Texas A&M-Commerce women's program
Texas A&M-Commerce assistant coaches Gerald Ewing and Coleman Furst lead a group of five potential candidates to become the next women's head coach for the Lions program. Other top candidates include Rebecca Alvidrez of UT Tyler, Josh Prock at West Texas A&M, and Cameron Hill at Trinity.
Texas A&M-Commerce began a search for a women’s basketball head coach when Jason Burton announced his resignation to accept the head coach position at North Texas. There’s never an ideal time to lose a successful head coach like Burton, but the timing of his departure is less than ideal for the Lions.
TAMUC is completing its first year of transition to Division I and is reportedly in the final round of interviews for a new athletic director. Questions abound about who will lead the search. President Mark Rudin could decide to hold the search until a new AD is hired, but he may want to begin the search with the speed of recruiting in today’s college basketball world.
