Joe Pasternack has resigned as men’s basketball head coach of the University of New Orleans’ team in order to become an assistant coach at the University of Arizona’s men’s basketball team under head coach Sean Miller. “It was very difficult for me being from New Orleans to leave the city that I love,” Pasternack said. “But this was an opportunity, and I’ve looked at many opportunities in the past two years I let go by the wayside, but this was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up. Sean Miller is the total package. He’s one of the top coaches in all of college basketball.”

Joe Pasternack’s contract at the University of New Orleans was very close to its expiration date, and the plan was for him to sit down with Athletic Director Amy Champion in order to decide on a new deal. That plan completely changed once coach Miller called him. Miller considered a number of candidates for the assistant coach job, but Pasternack’s impressive reputation and wide experience lead Miller to decide that he is the best candidate.

“To me, I just want to be in a situation where we’re competing for Final Fours and national championships,” Pasternack said. “That to me is the most important thing for me and my family, to be in a situation where we can compete at the highest level. This is one of the elite programs in all of America. When you look at Arizona basketball, you can put them at the same level as Duke, Kentucky, North Carolina, Kansas.”

Prior to his coaching career at the University of New Orleans, Pasternack was an assistant coach at California for eight seasons, and also served as a student manager under Coach Bob Knight at Indiana. Coach Knight helped Pasternack to make his decision, and told him that the University of Arizona job is too good to pass up.

Joe Pasternack, previous head coach of the University of New Orleans’ men’s basketball team, will be the new assistant coach for the University of Arizona’s men’s team.

In his high school career, which took place in Metairie Park Country Day School, Pasternack played four years of high school basketball. He graduated from Indiana in 1999 with a bachelor’s degree in marketing.

Prior to his coaching career at the University of New Orleans, Joe Pasternack was a manager for the Indiana basketball team for four years under coach Bob Knight and was an assistant coach at California.

He is known for his passionate and workaholic approach to all of his given positions.

In 2007, Joe Pasternack, then assistant coach at California, was offered a job as the University of New Orleans’ men’s basketball team’s (‘The Privateers’) head-coach, and he accepted it. Going back to his home-city in order to help rebuild the team after it was ruined by Hurricane Katrina seemed like the right thing to do. During his first year as head-coach, he lead ‘The Privateers’ to finish 19-11, their best record since 1997. “I thought we had turned the corner,” he said. Unfortunately he thought wrong.

With only a year left to his own contract as, Joe Pasternack, had to face the challenge of finding an entirely new team by the time the school year began at the end of August. The big problem, though, is that he needed to recruit players who were willing to enroll to the university and play for ‘The Privateers’, UNO’s basketball team, without receiving athletic scholarships. This is due to the fact the the university has, without too many choices, decided to move its athletics program from Division I to Division III because of major financial issues that they were experiencing as a result of Hurricane Katrina.

Pasternack did everything that he possibly could in order to find the best players for the new team, who would also be able to afford paying for their own tuition. He attended a two-day scrimmaging camp, in order to find and invite the best players to the university’s basketball skills camp which takes place only a few weeks before the school-year begins. He was able to gather 40 players for the university’s basketball skills camp. “I’m sure a lot of you know our situation,” Pasternack told attendees. When he finishes explaining UNO’s plight, he says, “What that means is, we have a lot of spots open.”

By the end of the long and odd recruiting period, Joe Pasternack had a new team in front of him that he would need to build. “We started with one kid,” he says, “and finished with 19.”
