Eric Musselman has a new job title.

According to CBSSports’ Gary Parrish, the Arizona State assistant has been promoted to associate head coach.

Musselman, who has been a head coach in the NBA, has been part of Herb Sendek’s staff since September 2012. He quickly earned a reputation for being an excellent teacher who players will listen to because of his professional experience.

Following a season that saw the Sun Devils win 22 games, rumors started to circulate that the 48-year-old Musselman could be a candidate for vacant head coaching jobs across the country.
