Head Coach | Jordan Mincy

Jacksonville University Senior Vice President and Athletic Director Alex Ricker-Gilbert have announced Jordan Mincy as the new Francis H. "Frank" Barker Men's Basketball Head Coach. Mincy, named the top assistant coach in the nation on ESPN's 40 Under 40 in May of 2020, takes over the program as its 17th head coach after spending the previous six seasons as an assistant at the University of Florida.

"I'm so excited about the opportunity to lead the Jacksonville program and grateful to President Cost and Alex Ricker-Gilbert for the opportunity," Mincy said. "We share a vision for what we can accomplish here, and we can do it in a way that will make the Dolphin community proud, as we foster a student-athlete-centered culture that helps develop young men on and off the court."

Mincy, a 2009 graduate of Kent State, has experienced a meteoric rise in recent years, following stops at South Carolina, Kent State, College of Charleston, Toledo, and Louisiana Tech, respectively, prior to his arrival in Gainesville. Entering his second season at Florida in 2016, the Memphis native was named to the NABC 30-Under-30 Team, highlighting young, up-and-coming coaches. At the time, he was one of just five individuals on that list representing a school in a Power 5 conference. His name was thrust into the national conversation for a multitude of head coaching positions following the 40 under 40 recognition from ESPN.

Associate Head Coach | Michael Fly

Michael Fly was named Associate Head Coach in May of 2023. Fly comes from Mizzou after spending a year as the team’s Director of Scouting and Analytics. Prior to joining the Tigers, Fly served as head coach at Florida Gulf Coast University from 2018 to 2022. During his tenure, he led the Eagles to the third-most wins in a single season in the program’s history with 22 victories during the 2021-22 campaign. Overall, Fly recruited and developed two Atlantic Sun Newcomer of the Year award winners in addition to the conference’s Defensive Player of the Year during the 2021-22 season. His highly-touted 2021 recruiting class was heralded as one of the top-10 mid major recruiting classes in the country and allowed Fly to enjoy one of the biggest turnarounds in college basketball during the 2021-22 campaign – vaulting the COVID-stricken Eagles from 10 wins during the shortened 2020-21 campaign to 22 victories and a postseason berth one year later. Prior to his head coaching stint at FGCU, Fly was an assistant coach for the Eagles. During his tenure from 2011 to 2018 as an assistant, he was part of six Atlantic Sun championship teams and three NCAA Tournament teams, including the 2013 squad who reached the Sweet 16. Fly also served as the video coordinator on Leonard Hamilton's staff at Florida State from 2008 to 2011. Before his time at Florida State, Fly worked alongside current Cleveland Cavaliers Head Coach J.B. Bickerstaff as a video coordinator for the Charlotte Bobcats during the 2006-07 season. Fly graduated from the University of Kentucky. Fly and his wife, Heather, have two sons, Jack (3) and Crew (newborn).
