At the plate now, Mr. Kevin Keatts, third-year head coach of UNC-Beach.
Important Questions, In Rough Order Of Importance:
1. Has he coached teams that have won a national title, made multiple deep NCAA tournament runs, and/or consistently been highly ranked?
No. UNC-Wilmington is Keatts’ first D-I head coaching job. He was the head coach at Hargrave Military Academy for a long time, and that program won titles; he was also an assistant at Louisville when the Cardinals won a national title.
Wilmington made the NCAAs last season but got bounced by Duke in the first round.
