SALT LAKE CITY – Utah head men s basketball coach Craig Smith will have a familiar face on the bench after adding Eric Peterson to his staff. The two previously worked together at his last two stops as a head coach.
We are thrilled that Eric Peterson will be joining the Runnin Utes basketball program, said Smith. Eric has been instrumental in our success over the last seven years at the university of South Dakota and Utah State. We have won many games and championships during that stretch and Eric has been a big part of that. He is the total package. Eric is well versed in all areas of our program. He can coach, develop players, recruit, lead and motivate. He is a relationship person in every way! Eric and his wonderful family will thrive in our great community of Salt Lake City.
