(St. Louis, MO) – SIUE has tapped the local talent for its next men’s basketball coach. Edwardsville High School product Jon Harris has been signed to become just the second Division 1 coach of the Cougar team.
Harris has worked with Cuonzo Martin for the past seven years at Missouri State, Tennessee and California. Those teams have won a College Insider.com Tournament championship, been to a Sweet 16 game and won an awful lot of games.
Harris was a star for Coach Mike Waldo’s Tigers and at Marquette University prior to his coaching career.
The official press conference will be Monday on the SIUE campus.

Flooding, lightning strikes, etc. have cost @RacersHoops two home games. Had to play 'neutral site' tonight instead of at home and Wednesday's goes from home to away. Tough break for the Racers, and the whole area has been hit with difficulties. #FatherHarry
Murray State's scheduled home game Wednesday vs. Southern Illinois being moved to Banterra Center in Carbondale. #ValleyHoops
Gigantic game for @BradleyUMBB today in Des Moines. If they have a chance to catch @DrakeBulldogsMB, they have to win today. The Bulldogs can basically win the title today. @BustingBrackets breaks it all down. #FatherHarry https://bit.ly/3EGiVgi
Not rooting for any particular @ValleyHoops, but chaos is always fun. If things break certain ways, after today there could be a six-way tie for fifth place.
Fun to listen to @MLBLarry on the @SIU_Basketball/@BelmontMBB game tonight. Good job brother. #FatherHarry
