Former Notre Dame Guard Ryan Ayers No Longer An Irish Assistant Coach
Ryan Ayers’ time as an assistant coach at his alma mater was suddenly ended Monday morning with a 19-word press release. Notre Dame announced Ayers, who spent the last four years on Mike Brey's staff, is "no longer a member of the Notre Dame Men's Basketball Program" and "is pursuing other opportunities." Ayers played for Brey at Notre Dame from 2005-09, had a five-year professional career spent mostly overseas and was an assistant at Bucknell from 2014-16 before returning to Notre Dame.
