The Aggies matchup with the Bears was in limbo as the game was not officially an exhibition, but also did not count towards Utah State s overall record. When the game was originally contracted, Bristol was an accredited university. However, it lost its accreditation after the fact, which is why the game did not count. Norbert Janicek finished one rebound shy of a double-double as the sophomore forward had 11 points and nine boards, to go along with three assists. All 12 Aggies who played scored at least five points during the game. Utah State finished the night shooting 38-of-65 (58.5 percent) from the floor, including 11-of-28 (29.3 percent) from beyond the arc. Freshman guard Koby McEwen and junior forward Ngor Barnaba each handed out four assists for Utah State, which tallied 25 helpers on the night. Ten different Aggies recorded at least one assist.

Head Coach Tim Duryea North Texas, 1988 Second Year (16th Overall) (19-19) Head coach Tim Duryea (pronounced Dur-yea) will begin his second season at the helm of Utah State men s basketball in 2016-17 after compiling the third-best start in USU history, when he led the Aggies to 16 wins in his first season in 2015-16. 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. During his inaugural season, Duryea mentored junior wing Jalen Moore and senior guard Chris Smith to third-team all-mountain West honors and became the first coach in USU history to win a conference tournament game in their first season. In addition, Utah State led the Mountain West in 3-point field goal percentage, shooting a league-best 37.0 percent (257-of-695). In his 15 seasons at Utah State, Duryea has been part of an Aggie program that has averaged 23.1 wins per season, advanced to the NCAA Tournament six times (2003, 2005, 2006, 2009, 2010, 2011), and won five conference championships in the Big West (2003) and Western Athletic Conferences (2008, 2009, 2010, 2011), while winning four conference tournament titles in the Big West (2003, 2005) and WAC (2009, 2011). 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 2014-15, 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). Individually, USU had the best field goal shooter in the Mountain West in redshirt freshman forward David Collette, who was No. 14 in the nation at 59.1 percent (163-of-276). In 2013-14, Utah State ranked second in the nation in 3-point field goal percentage (.406), as well as No. 12 in assists per game (15.9) and No. 19 in assist-to-ratio (1.44). During the 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons, USU ranked No. 24 nationally in field goal percentage at 47.5 and 46.9 percent, respectively, while ranking No. 28 nationally in field goal percentage (.470) during the 2010-11 campaign. During the 2009-10 season, Utah State ranked third nationally in 3-point field goal percentage (.414), ninth in overall shooting (.488) and No. 10 in free throw shooting (.758), and was the only team in the nation to rank among the top-10 in all three shooting categories. During the 2008-09 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 2008-09 season and a 30-4 mark during the 2010-11 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. Prior to joining the Aggies, Duryea was the head coach at Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College from 2000-01. During his two years at the helm, his teams produced a 40-25 record and backto-back trips to the Region Six Championships. A 1988 graduate of North Texas, Duryea began his coaching career in 1988 at Colorado State before moving on to North Texas in 1993. Duryea then went to Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College as an assistant coach for two seasons before becoming the head coach there prior to the 1999-2000 season. Duryea played basketball at Denton (Texas) High School and Texas Pan-American before transferring to North Texas. At UNT, Duryea was a co-captain in 1988 for one of only three teams in school history to advance to the NCAA Tournament. Duryea and his wife Angie have 21-year-old twins, Tanner (son) and Taylor (daughter), and a 14-year-old daughter (Kaylee). Tanner is a junior at Utah State, while Taylor is a sophomore volleyball player at Dixie State (Utah). Closer Look at Coach Duryea Personal: Hometown - Medicine Lodge, Kan.
