Veteran coach and former NBA champion Corey Williams is joining Bruce Pearl’s staff at Auburn as an assistant men’s basketball coach, according to a release sent out by the school’s athletic communications on Friday.
AUBURN, Ala. -
Williams comes to Auburn with 23 years of coaching experience, having most recently served as an assistant coach over the last two seasons at Texas Tech, including a one-game stint as interim head coach for the Red Raiders during the 2022-23 season when he led the team in a 78-62 first round loss in the Big 12 Tournament following the resignation of former head coach Mark Adams.
“I want to thank God and Coach Pearl for an amazing opportunity to join his staff,” Williams said. “Coach Pearl is a proven winner in every sense of the word. My family and I look forward to being a positive attribute to his staff, the university, and community. I am truly thrilled and look forward to Coach’s mentorship and helping him win more championships in the near future.”
He was drafted in the second-round of the 1992 NBA Draft by the Chicago Bulls, and was also selected in the 12th round of that same year’s NFL draft by the Kansas City Chiefs, despite not having played football since junior high.
