OCCUPATION: Head coach of the Wolf Pack basketball team. Musselman has been the head coach of the NBA’s Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors – he and father, Bill, were the first father-son due to be head coaches in the NBA. Musselman was hired as Nevada’s 18th head coach in March 2015. Luring the highly regarded coach to run the Wolf Pack at a discount price (Musselman ranks ninth out of 11 Mountain West coaches in total compensation) was a coup for Nevada athletic director Doug Knuth.
WHY WE'RE WATCHING: Musselman was hired to restore the once-proud program that has struggled since the Wolf Pack moved from the WAC to the MW for the 2012-13 season.
