14 HEAD COACH TIM DURYEA North Texas, 1988 Second Year (16th Overall) (34-37) Head coach Tim Duryea (pronounced Dur-yay) will begin his third season at the helm of Utah State men s basketball in Prior to being promoted to the head job, Duryea was an assistant coach for the Aggies for 14 seasons. Duryea had been the longest tenured assistant coach in program history before taking over in April of 2015 and becoming the 18th head coach for USU men s basketball. In his second season at the helm, Duryea led the Aggies to a 10-5 ledger at home, the 35th consecutive winning record within the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum in school history. Duryea also coached freshman guard Koby McEwen to Mountain West Freshman of the Year honors as well as all-league honors for McEwen and senior wing Jalen Moore. In the classroom, Utah State had four players recognized with academic all-mw honors in freshmen Diogo Brito, Sam Merrill and Abel Porter, a junior Alex Dargenton. Brito was also named a Mountain West Scholar Athlete. Utah State s offense was the best in the league during Duryea s second season, as the Aggies shot a Mountain West-best 46.1 percent (790-of-1,713) from the floor and finished second behind the 3-point line, shooting 37.9 percent (234-of-618). During his inaugural season in , Duryea mentored junior wing Jalen Moore and senior guard Chris Smith to third-team all-mountain West honors.

In seven seasons leading up to his appointment as head coach, Duryea was in charge of an Aggie offense that traditionally was one of the best in the nation. The trend continued as head coach, with Utah State leading the Mountain West in 3-point field goal percentage (.370) and finishing third in the league in overall field goal percentage (.451). In , Utah State led the Mountain West and ranked No. 14 nationally in 3-point shooting (.394), while also ranking second in the conference and No. 17 in the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.38), and second in the conference and No. 19 nationally in fewest turnovers per game (10.4).

During the season, USU finished the year as the nation s best shooting team (.496) and ranked No. 17 in 3-point field goal percentage (.394). Duryea spent his first seven seasons at Utah State in charge of an Aggie defense that traditionally ranked among the top in the nation in points allowed, including No. 4 in 2002 (58.1), No. 8 in 2005 (57.8) and No. 9 in 2003 (60.0). During his time as an assistant at Utah State, the Aggies recorded a dozen 20-win seasons, including setting the school record for wins with a 30-5 mark during the season and a 30-4 mark during the campaign. USU also had 18 players earn a total of 30 all-conference honors during the past 14 years, including three WAC Players of the Year in Jaycee Carroll (2008), Gary Wilkinson (2009) and Tai Wesley (2011). Furthermore, USU had three players earn All-American citations a total of four times with Duryea on staff in Carroll (2007, 2008), Wilkinson (2009) and Wesley (2011). Along with his on-the-court responsibilities, Duryea also oversaw academic progress as an assistant at Utah State, which resulted in 22 Aggies earning academic all-conference honors a total of 40 times over the last 14 years, while nearly 90 percent of USU s players during that time graduated.
