WICHITA — Wichita State has found its next men's basketball coach.
Multiple reports confirmed by Tulsa media say that Oral Roberts head coach Paul Mills will be the next to lead the Shockers.
Mills led Oral Roberts to a Sweet 16 appearance two seasons ago, where they lost on a last-second shot to Arkansas to end their season. To get there, ORU upset second-seeded Ohio State in the round of 64 and Florida in the round of 32.
In the just finished season, ORU finished 30-5, capped off with a Summit League Championship win over North Dakota State. They were eliminated in the first round of the NCAA tournament by Duke.
Since his arrival at Oral Roberts in 2017, Mills has compiled a 106-84 record.
Prior to his arrival at Oral Roberts, Mills was an assistant at Baylor from 2003 to 2017. Mills is 50 years old.
