Former Buffalo coach Felisha Legette-Jack is returning to Syracuse to be the head coach of the women’s basketball team, the team announced on Saturday.
Legette-Jack comes to Syracuse after previously coaching at Buffalo for the last 10 seasons. She led the Bulls to four trips to the NCAA tournament that includes this season and the program's first ever run to the Sweet 16 in 2018.
At Syracuse, Legette-Jack scored 1,526 points, grabbed 927 rebounds, and graduated as the program’s all-time leading scorer and rebounder.
Legette-Jack did not speak about the potential of returning to her alma mater until March 19, the same day Tennessee defeated Buffalo in this year’s NCAA tournament.
