Masi Leaves for USC. Via A-J Media’s Don Williams reports that Brett Masi has resigned after four years as the men’s tennis coach to take the head coaching job at USC, which is a perennial powerhouse and Masi is from the West Coast. Thanks to Masi for getting the men’s team to three of four NCAA Tournaments and good luck moving forward.

Cyprien Leaves; Maligi Hired as Third Assistant.

I didn’t realize that Glynn Cyprien was looking at another position, I think he was assisting in coaching an international team over the summer, so the hire of Ulric Maligi was a bit of a surpise. Originally from Arlington, Maligi was at Texas A&M the past three years and had previous stops at SMU, Houston, SFA, and UT-Arlington. Here’s Maligi:

“I feel extremely humbled and blessed to work with and learn from arguably the best college basketball staff in the country,” Maligi said. “My family and I could not be coming to Texas Tech at a more exciting time. It’s rare in this profession for any coach to work for a reigning National Coach of the Year and a head coach who has sat in the NBA green room back-to-back years. I’m eager to work with all of our players and join the efforts of our entire staff to be fully committed to their development as student-athletes and as men. I cannot wait to win more Big 12 championships and ultimately win a National Championship at Texas Tech. Coach Beard has created an expectation to win big and a championship culture that I’m ecstatic to be a part of.”

Ham Graduates 23 Years Later. Congrats to former Red Raider basketballer Darvin Ham who earned his degree from Texas Tech:

Be Fresh For The Bahamas.

Looking to Learn. A-J Media’s Carlos Silva, Jr. writes about how Chris Beard is hoping to find some answers on this trip to the Bahamas:

The 2019 trip has come at a good time as Beard feels it has been more than a challenge to coach five freshmen, including two redshirts, and several other newcomers to get on the same page. But, it’s been a calling card of Beard and his staff to assemble talented players and get them to mesh in a short amount of time.

β€œYeah, seven freshmen, so this is going to be fun,” Beard said. β€œFor everyday, it’s a challenge. Grey hairs are popping up everywhere. We also have days of just great excitement and joy. These guys play the game, they bring a level of just fun around. As a group, I’ve been impressed with their buy in. … I like spending time with them, I’m proud to be their coach.”

And if you want to follow along, the official site has a schedule, which games don’t start until Wednesday, the first game is against the Bahamas Select National Team at 4:00 p.m.
