Bradley adds Mike Nesbitt to men’s basketball staff

PEORIA – Mike Nesbitt, most recently an assistant coach at New Mexico Junior College, has been named to the Bradley men’s basketball staff as coordinator of player development and video operations.

Nesbitt, originally from Evansville, played college ball at Missouri S&T for three years and at New Mexico for his final season. He replaces Kristof Kendrick, who spent the 2019-20 season in the role at Bradley.

Nesbitt spent one year as a graduate assistant at New Mexico before moving on to assistant coaching stints at Southern Utah, Panola College (Ga.) and New Mexico JC.

Last year, he was named one of the 50 most impactful JUCO coaches by Silver Waves Media in helping the Thunderbirds to a 23-9 record.
