Mizzou basketball’s first-ever general manager ready to embrace new role

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Mizzou men’s basketball is introducing its first general manager in program history.

Tim Fuller, who was recently named the team’s new general manager, is scheduled to speak with the media for the first time since accepting the position at approximately 2:30 p.m.

The former Mizzou associate and interim head coach was announced as general manager in early June, following 25 years of experience with Nike, Overtime Elite and several college basketball programs across the country.

“This role is a full-circle moment for me,” Fuller said in a press release on June 2. “College basketball is evolving, and I’m excited to help Missouri stay at the forefront as the program’s first general manager.”

Fuller will be responsible for helping with a variety of tasks in his new position, including strategic planning, roster construction and emphasizing alumni engagement, agent relations and NIL optimization.
