Cincinnati is expected to hire Utah State head coach Jerrod Calhoun, according to reports.

Calhoun has been Cincinnati’s top target since the job opened, and the Bearcats now appear poised to bring him in to lead the program.

Track record at Utah State

Calhoun arrives with recent postseason success on his résumé, having led the Aggies to consecutive NCAA tournament appearances. That back-to-back run has helped elevate his profile as a candidate for a high-profile opening.

What it means for Cincinnati

The move would mark a significant step for Cincinnati as it looks to establish momentum with a new coach in place. Calhoun’s recent tournament results at Utah State stand as the clearest indicator of the standard he has met in his current role.
