SALT LAKE CITY - University of Utah men's basketball assistant coach Chris Jones will be leaving his position with the Utes to take a spot on the men's basketball coaching staff at Utah State University.
Jones spent a total of seven years at the University of Utah in a number of roles. He has spent the last two seasons as an assistant coach.
"This move will help Chris toward his career goal of becoming a head coach," Utah head coach Jim Boylen said. "We're losing a quality person and a solid coach. We wish him the best of luck in the future."
"The basketball program at Utah is in terrific hands with Coach Boylen," Jones said. "He's as good a coach as I've ever been around. This is an opportunity for me and my family to pursue the goal of becoming a head coach."
Jones began his coaching career as Utah's video coordinator from 1994-97. He then coached the Wurthing Bears in London, England from 1998-99 and later was an assistant at Westminster College in Salt Lake City from 2003-04.
