Mike Carr is in his first season as the Men's Basketball Director of Operations.
Carr joins the Owls after spending the last two seasons at Rider. While at Rider, he managed the day-to-day administrative components of the program, including logistics of travel, meals, and scheduling. He also assisted the staff with player development, scouting, academics, and on-campus recruiting, while overseeing the student manager program and summer camps.
Prior to his time in New Jersey, Carr spent the 2020-21 season as a Graduate Assistant at Nevada under Head Coach Steve Alford. While at Nevada, he assisted the coaching staff with player development, film, and scouting. He also helped in the development of two All-Mountain West Conference selections.
Prior to making the jump to Division I, Carr spent the 2019-20 season as an assistant coach on Collin Dimitroff’s staff at Wallace State CC (AL). The 2019-20 coaching staff at Wallace State was one of the youngest coaching staffs in all of college basketball, with an average age of 23.6 years. In his one season in Hanceville, Carr helped lead the Lions to a winning season, while producing two all-conference players, and sending three members of the 2020 graduating class on to compete at four-year institutions.
Before the start of the 2019-20 season, Carr spent three months in New York City working for Pro-Reps Performance as a Player Development Coach. He trained and assisted in the development of players of all ages and skill-levels, from grade-school to pro, in various gyms across Manhattan and Queens. He worked individually with actor Daniel Lee Bellomy, as he prepared for his role as “Zeke,” a basketball player in the STARZ network series Power Book II: Ghost.
Carr is a 2019 graduate of Indiana University where he received a degree in finance from the Kelley School of Business. He was a three-year student-manager for the men’s basketball team under both Tom Crean and Archie Miller. During his college years, he worked summer camps at several schools, including Indiana, West Virginia, Seton Hall, Boston College, Xavier, UAlbany, Nevada, and Rider.
