CINCINNATI — Cincinnati hoops and Wes Miller announced the addition of veteran coach Bill Comar as the program's chief of staff on Thursday.

"Bill Comar is a tremendous addition to our program," Miller said in a press release. "He has a tremendous amount of experience in college basketball and has filled a variety of roles throughout his career. I don't think there is anyone more prepared to be our Chief of Staff than Bill. I'm excited to welcome him and his family to Cincinnati."

Comar has coached around the country for decades, including time at Xavier from 2001-08 as director of operations. He was special assistant to the head coach at Ball State for the past three seasons before making the move back to Cincinnati.

He held oversight over non-coaching personnel at Ball State and was a mediator across various mediums for the program.
