Smart, who had an impressive record of 591-48 against U Sports competition, was the director of basketball operations at Carleton University in Ottawa the past four seasons.
“Dave Smart is one of the greatest coaches in all of basketball,” McCasland said in a statement. “We are thrilled to have him as part of our program.
“Coach Smart’s ability to win speaks for itself, but his understanding of how to help people grow is what separates him. We are thankful to have he and his family in Lubbock.”
During his 18 seasons at Carleton, Smart led the Ravens to 11 OUA championships — the most by any coach in conference history — and 13 U Sports Final 8 national championship titles.
