Indiana Basketball: Asst Coach Ed Schilling moving on from program

Announced on Wednesday night, Indiana basketball assistant Ed Schilling will be moving on from the program.

In what has been a busy time for the Indiana basketball program, one member of the coaching staff will not be staying at Indiana for the 2019 season.

Ed Schilling told the program on Wednesday night that he will no longer be on staff at Indiana and be “looking for new opportunities” per Jeff Rabjohns.

Spending the past two seasons at Indiana, Schilling previously spent four seasons at UCLA under Steve Alford.

One of the main reasons for his hire at Indiana was due to his ties with many local high schools around Indianapolis. The former head coach at Park Tudor, also the alma mater for former Hoosier Yogi Ferrell, won two straight state championships in 2011 and 2012 before leaving for UCLA. He also served as a head coach for Adidas Nations, spending time coaching and training the Adidas High School All-American Team in national and international competition from 2007 to 2013.

Since he was hired to Miller’s staff, they brought in back-to-back McDonalds All-American’s and Indiana Mr. Basketball recruits (Langford, Jackson-Davis), both being the top ranked prospect in the Big Ten.

There is no current list for potential replacements at this time, but with the summer being one of the bigger recruiting seasons of the year, and with the incoming freshmen already on campus, there is an immediate need for someone to step in.
