Oregon men’s basketball coach Dana Altman has an opening on his staff.
Louis Rowe, who spent the past two seasons as an assistant coach at Oregon, has been hired at Cleveland State.
“We’re excited to welcome Louis Rowe to our basketball staff,” Cleveland State coach Rob Summers said in a statement. “Louis brings a wealth of experience to our program, having served as a Division I head coach and worked across multiple levels of college basketball. His perspective, leadership, and ability to connect with student-athletes will be a tremendous asset. His journey through the game speaks volumes about his passion, knowledge, and commitment to development — both on and off the court.”

Rowe was the lowest paid member of UO’s coaching staff each of his seasons in Eugene. He earned $175,000 in salary plus $15,000 in bonuses this season and does not owe a buyout.
Rowe was previously an assistant at South Florida for two seasons, the head coach at James Madison, his alma mater, from 2016-20, with stops as an assistant at Bowling Green (2015-16), Florida International (2014-15), Rider (2012-13) and JMU.
He played at Florida and JMU, where he was a two-time all-CAA selection, and had a nine-year professional career overseas.
