Steve Snell is in his second season on Jeff Reynolds' staff at the Air Force Academy after spending two seasons as a member of the coaching staff at Louisiana-Monroe. An 18-year coaching veteran, Snell helped the Warhawks to the co-championship of the Sun Belt's West Division in 2006-07 with an 18-14 record, including a perfect 14-0 mark at home. Prior to coaching at ULM, Snell was at Tulane University, where he and Reynolds served as assistant coaches. During his four-year tenure with the Green Wave, Snell assisted in all aspects of the program. A native of Radford, Va., he had served as an assistant coach at Marshall University for five seasons under head coach Greg White prior to his tenure at Tulane. In his five years at Marshall, Snell helped the Herd to an 86-54 (.614) record. In that time, he played a vital role in recruiting such standout players as Tamar Slay, J.R. VanHoose, Travis Young, Joda Burgess and Cornelius Jackson. The Herd's 1998 recruiting class was ranked by ESPN as the best in the Mid-American Conference. Slay was selected in the second round of the 2002 NBA Draft by the New Jersey Nets. Prior to his move to Marshall, Snell spent three years as an assistant coach at East Tennessee State University. He served the 1992-93 campaign at the University of North Carolina-Greensboro and also spent two years at Wingate College and one season at Radford University. Before that, Snell was an assistant coach at Radford High School during the 1988-89 campaign. Snell earned a bachelor's degree in recreation management from Radford University in 1988.
