Chris Nottingham, who joined the Texas Tech men’s basketball program in May 2023, has helped lead the Red Raiders to a 51-20 overall record and two trips to the NCAA Tournament in his two seasons. Nottingham is an assistant coach entering his third season in the program, previously serving as the Director of Player Development in the 2024-25 season and the program's Video Coordinator in his first year. In his second season at Tech, Nottingham and the Red Raiders advanced to the Elite 8 and finished second in the Big 12 standings with a 15-5 conference record - the most Big 12 wins in program history.
A Baylor graduate, Nottingham worked in multiple roles within the BU program that won the 2021 National Championship and a pair of conference championships during his time in Waco. He began as a student manager from 2017-20 before moving into a graduate assistant position from 2020-23. He worked with head coach Scott Drew and his staff along with assisting players in the development of their game.
“Chris really understands how to help our staff through video but has a feel and understanding of the game to improve our team is what separates him,” McCasland said.
A Chickasha, Oklahoma native, Nottingham is coming off experience in the 2022-23 season as a graduate assistant where he directly aided BU assistant coach John Jakus with the guards. He assisted on film projects and individual instruction along with various other roles. During that time, Baylor won the 2021 National Championship and was the 2021 and 2022 Big 12 Conference Champion. He would also gain experience and help the program through analytics that included team offense, team defense, individual defense, and individual/position group offense.
At Baylor, Nottingham earned a master’s in Sports Pedagogy after his bachelor’s in accounting and management.
