LOGAN \u2014 \u201cI\u2019m about winning and I\u2019m about doing it the right way,\u201d said Danny Sprinkle, the recently announced 21st head coach of Utah State Men\u2019s Basketball. \u201cWe will continue to cultivate, enhance the culture, the atmosphere that\u2019s been around here and just try and go win a game in the NCAA Tournament.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sprinkle was welcomed to Utah State at a press conference inside the Wayne Estes Center on Monday afternoon. The conference was attended by Spinkle\u2019s parents Bill and Danette, interim athletics director Jerry Bovee and Noelle Cockett, president of Utah State University, along with dozens of Aggie faithful.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To select Sprinkle as the new coach, a panel made up of Cockett, Bovee, executive associate athletics director Amy Crosbie and a community member interviewed three candidates based on a prior group of 10 to 12 coaches that Bovee had screened at the Final Four in Houston, per Cockett.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Cockett said she is \u201ccertain that this is the man we want to lead us forward with our men\u2019s basketball program.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe attributes of Danny, coach Sprinkle \u2014 I love his name too \u2014 matches what we are as Aggies,\u201d Cockett said. \u201cHe\u2019s energetic. He\u2019s personable. He has a commitment to integrity. He has grit. He will make things happen. And one of the things that was especially important to me was a commitment to the professional and personal development of our student-athletes.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bovee echoed the sentiment of Cockett and thanked Aggie fans for their support and \u201cdie-hard fandom\u201d during the coaching search. He added that there was widespread interest in the job around the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere was a lot of interest in this job,\u201d Bovee said. \u201cIf you were to see this list that I was working off, you’d be amazed with some of the names on that list.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Bovee mentioned that several head coaches inquired and interviewed for the job including some from \u201cPower Five\u201d schools. He added that even though some coaches may have had more experience than Sprinkle, Bovee was focused on finding the right person for Utah State.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJust because you have a name and you have experience at other places that doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll be successful here,\u201d Bovee said. \u201cWe had to find the right match in that process.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

He said that Sprinkle was the right match. That seemed evident in the way Sprinkle talked about how he wants his team to engage with the campus and Cache Valley.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are going to be visible in the community. We are going to be visible on campus it\u2019s important. That\u2019s what makes Utah State special,\u201d Sprinkle said. \u201cOur players \u2014 you\u2019re heroes to these little kids. That means a lot to me and I\u2019m going to make sure that those little kids see that and that\u2019s why they want to be Aggies when they grow up.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After thanking God, Bovee and Cockett for the opportunity to coach at USU, Sprinkle explained his belief in the tradition of Aggie basketball and the importance of representing former players as well as current ones.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sprinkle shouted out former Aggie guard Brock Miller who was in attendance. Sprinkle said he still has \u201cnightmares\u201d about Miller draining a 3-pointer that took Montana State out of Sprinkle\u2019s first game as a head coach against Utah State.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sprinkle continued by talking about the impact of tradition and being representatives of Utah State.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI talked a lot to our team about representing the players that wore that jersey before and that’s important to me,\u201d Sprinkle said. \u201cTradition is important. In college basketball, it’s the most important. And when you’re working in the weight room, when you’re on campus, when you’re in the community, we’re going to represent you guys well. And we’re going to represent the community and every former player that ever put on that blue and white jersey.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

After some more thank yous to coaches that helped Sprinkle progress in his career, he talked about the history of Utah State basketball and mentioned notable players including Wayne Estes, Jaycee Carroll, Spencer Nelson, Sam Merrill and Neemias Queta among others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sprinkle was also keen to mention how important the \u201ccare factor\u201d is to him. He said how much the school and community care is what drew him to Logan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis community cares. There’s not a lot of communities that care about their basketball team like this does,\u201d Sprinkle said. \u201cYou\u2019re a loyal fanbase that cares.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Sprinkle pointed at Pac-12 Conference fanbases that draw crowds of less than half of the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum. He said that that would never happen here because Cache Valley cares. Sprinkle also added that he shares that same passion.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe one thing that I can tell you is like my care factor is off the charts,\u201d Sprinkle said. \u201cI sometimes have to remind referees about that too and my mom does too\u2026 It\u2019s different here and I appreciate that.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rivalry games were also a topic of discussion. One attendee proclaimed to Sprinkle that \u201cthe only thing worse than a Utah Ute is a BYU Cougar.\u201d Utah State hasn\u2019t beaten either team since the 2011-12 season, which includes 10 straight losses to Brigham Young.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sprinkle has experience flipping rivalries. Before he took over at Montana State, the Bobcats were 1-15 against Montana since 2012. Under his tenure, they went 3-3. Sprinkle puts a lot of weight on rivalry games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s huge, that\u2019s what makes college basketball,\u201d Sprinkle said. \u201cIt was the funnest and most stressful game at Montana State when we played University of Montana\u2026 We hadn\u2019t been very successful in that rivalry until me and my staff got there, but I think it\u2019s the most important thing. Obviously, there\u2019s some unbelievable teams in this state and it\u2019s fun to compete against those teams and it’s fun for the fans to kind of have those state bragging rights.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the difficulty may be getting those institutions to play games with Utah State as the Utes have only played the Aggies once since joining the Pac-12 Conference and BYU is set to join the Big 12 Conference this year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After securing the job, Sprinkle\u2019s attention is set on building next season\u2019s roster. And like Bovee searching for the new coach, Sprinkle said he will find the right players for Utah State.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m here to develop them on and off the court \u2014 that\u2019s my responsibility,\u201d Sprinkle said. \u201cWe’re going to find people that want to be here. We\u2019re going to find great players and great people that want to be here and once you get that the sky\u2019s the limit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The current team includes Mason Falslev, Isaac Johnson, Landon Brenchley, Rylan Jones, Zee Hamoda and Conner Gillis. Four others \u2014 Steven Ashworth, Max Shulga, Sean Bairstow and Szymon Zapala \u2014 are in the transfer portal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
