Missouri State men's basketball to promote Sheldon Everett to assistant coach

Dana Ford won't go outside of Missouri State to fill his vacant assistant coaching position.

Sheldon Everett will be promoted from the program's director of basketball operations to the assistant coaching position left behind by Jake Headrick.

Headrick left Missouri State in April to become Samford's associate head coach and recruiting coordinator.

Everett will receive a raise from $48,700 to $78,000. The raise does not represent an increase in expenses to the athletics department or university because he's filling an open position.

The move will also result in a bump in salary for associate head coach Corey Gipson and assistant coach Jase Herl.
