A press conference to formally introduce Smith will be held in the Wayne Estes Center, which is located on the Utah State campus, on Tuesday, March 27, at 11 a.m. The event is open to the public and media, and free parking will be available in the lots just north of the Estes Center. "Our family and I are pumped to join Utah State University and the community of Logan," said Smith. "Utah State men's basketball has tremendous leadership from the top in President (Noelle) Cockett, athletic director John Hartwell, and all the way down. It was easy to see and feel that our visions were aligned when it comes to running a successful basketball program. "Utah State has a rich tradition of excellence with tremendous fan support. The Dee Glen Smith Spectrum is one of the best home-court atmospheres in the country and I am amped to see 'The HURD' in full force. We are looking forward to making USU hoops a force in the Mountain West." In all, Smith has 22 years of collegiate coaching experience, including seven years as a head coach, and has been to postseason play 10 times during his career, while winning three regular season and two postseason conference championships. As a head coach, Smith has been named conference Coach of the Year three times (2006, 2007, 2017) in addition to receiving the NAIA II National Coach of the Year Award in 2007 and the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) District 12 Coach of the Year Award in Smith also has experience coaching in the Mountain West as he spent five years as an assistant at Colorado State from 2008 to "When we started this process two weeks ago we identified several characteristics we wanted in our next head coach high energy, high character, a proven recruiter and proven player development, to name a few," said Hartwell. "We believe we have not only checked all the boxes, but that we have hit a home run with the hiring of Craig Smith. Craig has been a winner at every level. Craig, his wife Darcy, and their family, will be tremendous assets to Utah State University and Cache Valley. We look forward to Craig leading our team to the high levels of success that Aggie basketball has experienced in our storied history." Smith comes to Utah State after spending the past four years as the head coach at the University of South Dakota, where he led the Coyotes to a (.590) record, including a (.594) mark in the Summit League. In his last two seasons at USD, he led the program to back-to-back postseason appearances (NIT, CBI) and a

During this past season at South Dakota, Smith led the Coyotes to a 26-9 record, which is the second-most wins in school history, and its best record in their 10 years at the Division I level. USD also finished second in its conference during the campaign with an 11-3 mark and advanced to the championship game of the Summit League Tournament, followed by an appearance in the College Basketball Invitational, which was its second-straight postseason appearance. In all, USD did not lose back-to-back games once during the regular season. Statistically, South Dakota led the Summit League and ranked 12th in the nation in scoring margin (+12.2 points per game) during the season, while also ranking first in the conference and 32nd nationally in field goal percentage defense (.409), and first in the conference and 36th in the nation in field goal percentage offense (.476). USD also ranked third in the Summit League and 35th in the nation in scoring offense (80.9 points per game) during the campaign, second in the conference and 30th in the nation in turnovers (11.1 per game), and second in the league and 20th nationally in turnover margin (+3.2 per game).

Following the season, Smith was named the Summit League and NABC District 12 Coach of the Year as he led South Dakota to a record, including a 12-4 mark in league play, to win its second-ever Division I conference championship. The Coyotes concluded the season by playing in the National Invitation Tournament. During his four years as the head coach at South Dakota, Smith coached nine players who earned a total of 11 Summit League honors, including Matt Mooney, who was a two-time first-team all-league honoree and a twotime NABC All-District 12 team member. Prior to being the head coach at South Dakota, Smith spent two seasons as an assistant at Nebraska ( ) and five seasons as an assistant at Colorado State ( ), helping the Cornhuskers to the 2014 NCAA Tournament and the Rams to the 2012 NCAA Tournament.

Mayville State advanced to the national quarterfinals before falling to the eventual national champions. In 2007, Smith was named the NAIA II National Coach of the Year when the Comets defended their regular season and tournament titles and advanced to the National Championship game.

5 Craig Smith Named Utah State University Head Men's Basketball Coach... 5/5/5 What Others Are Saying About Craig Smith Tim Miles, Nebraska Head Men's Basketball Coach: "Craig Smith has been a colleague and friend of mine for 23 years and he is a terrific hire for Utah State. Craig is an exceptional coach and a better man, and I believe he will take Utah State basketball to the top of the Mountain West and keep them there. Craig's energy and enthusiasm will connect with the campus, the community, and the state of Utah in a way that will make Aggie basketball electric." Gene Taylor, Kansas State Athletics Director: "I have known Craig for a number of years and have watched him grow into a great basketball coach. Not only is he an excellent coach, but he is also a tremendous person that runs basketball programs with integrity and class." Brad Underwood, Illinois Head Men's Basketball Coach: "Craig is one of the top young coaches in the country! He has put South Dakota basketball on the map with his tremendous recruiting and top-flight coaching ability. His teams are always so well prepared. He does a terrific job of getting his guys to play very hard and sound basketball, and they don't beat themselves." Colton Iverson, Former Basketball Player at Colorado State and NBA Draft Pick: "Coach Smith is an incredible coach. I have never been coached by anyone in my whole life who was as determined to get the most and best out of me as an individual and the team as a whole. I have never been with a coach like him that works non-stop to make the most of every day. His determination is contagious and you can see how success follows him everywhere he goes. He is a motivator that will do whatever it takes to get the best out of each and every player the right way." Pierce Hornung, Former Basketball Player at Colorado State: "Utah State hired a tremendous basketball coach and an even better person. Craig Smith does an unbelievable job creating a winning culture, as well as developing talent. Craig is influential on and off the court, and he brings out the best in each of his players." Archie Weatherspoon IV, Former NAIA All-American at Mayville State: "Coach Smith is a true potential-seeker and talent-developer. He saw my growth before I did, and when I finally saw it, he was there to affirm it and raise the bar even higher. The passion and excitement that coach Smith brings to the game is infectious for all those around him. He helps good players become great players, and he helps young adults become great men. If you want fire, energy and passion from your students, fans and community, and most importantly if you want to win, coach Smith is the person to believe in, because he will believe in you." Brandon Ubel, Former Basketball Player at Nebraska: "In my four years at Nebraska I had 11 different assistant coaches and coach Smith was easily the one that I learned the most from, both on and off the court. What stands out about him as a coach and person is his understanding that every little detail is important and should be emphasized. He was able to express this in individual workouts, practices, and in scouting to make me a better player, and more importantly, to help our team exceed expectations. I truly believe that, as a team, we won games simply because of the scouts that coach Smith put together and communicated effectively and efficiently with us. As someone who wants to get into coaching, coach Smith is the one who I would most try to emulate with his enthusiasm and energy, but also how he coaches, communicates, and prepares to help push his team over the top." Benny Parker, Former Basketball Player at Nebraska: "Coach Smith is always full of energy and brings high intensity to practice every day. You never catch him with low energy. He pushes you in workouts and practices to get the best out of you. He is just a great all-around coach."
