LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Wayne Turner, who was a member of two collegiate national championship teams and played nine years in professional basketball, has joined the University of Louisville men's basketball staff as a program assistant.
"Wayne has decided to get into the coaching ranks," said UofL head coach Rick Pitino. "He'll be living with our players in Billy Minardi Hall this year, mentoring them off the court. There's no better person to do that as he played in three straight Final Fours and won two national championships."
His primary duties with the Cardinals include assisting in opponent scouting through extensive video breakdowns, game preparation and assisting in on-campus recruting efforts.
