“Chris has been involved in all facets of our program and does an outstanding job,” said coach Donnie Tyndall. “He has been a vital part of our success over the years, especially our recent success. His dedication to the betterment of our players and this program is unparalleled.”
Moore came to MSU from the staff of Jeffersonville (Ind.) High School. Jeffersonville finished the 2005-06 season with a 23-2 record, won the district championship, reached the regional finals and was ranked fourth in the state.

In 2000-01 and 2001-02, he was an assistant coach with the University of Cincinnati’s women’s basketball program. Cincinnati was 49-15 in those two seasons and advanced to postseason play on both occasions. During his final year at UC, the Bearcats finished 27-5 and won the Conference USA title. They finished the season ranked in the Top 25, a first for that program.
A Louisville native, Moore began his coaching career at Fern Creek and DuPont Manual high schools in the city. During six seasons in the Louisville high school ranks, he helped lead teams to two district championships and two regional championship game appearances.
