UW Huskies Land New Basketball Assistant Coach
9 Jun
Summary
- DeAndre Haynes joins Washington basketball staff.
- Haynes previously coached at Marquette for five seasons.
- Jerry Hobbie departed UW for a role at TCU.
The University of Washington men's basketball team is expected to add DeAndre Haynes to Danny Sprinkle's coaching staff as an assistant coach. Haynes spent the last five seasons coaching at Marquette. He has a total of 15 years of coaching experience across five different collegiate programs, including Maryland, Michigan, Toledo, and his alma mater, Kent State.
This potential hiring comes shortly after Jerry Hobbie, who served as a special assistant to Sprinkle, left the Huskies to become an assistant coach at TCU. Haynes, a former standout player at Kent State, has a notable coaching career that also saw Marquette reach the NCAA Tournament in each of his first four seasons with the program before a dip this past winter. Sprinkle's staff is actively rebuilding the UW roster, with several new recruits already committed.
