Ehren Earleywine has found a new job.
The former Missouri softball coach, who MU fired in late January, will be the director of athletics for Jefferson City Public Schools. Earleywine, a Jefferson City native, will start in his new role on July 1.
“For me personally, it’s a beautiful thing that my career and my passion come together in the city and at the school I love most,” Earleywine said in a statement.
Missouri atheltic director Jim Sterk fired Earleywine just days before the 2018 season began. Sterk cited “a culmination of leadership concerns” as the reason for his decision, but he did not provide specifics.
