This is Gerad Good's first season at IPFW.

Good spent the past three years as an assistant coach at John A. Logan College in Carterville, Illinois. The Volunteers posted a record of 74-22 during his tenure.

A native of Shelbyville, Indiana, Good graduated from Shelbyville High School in 1989. He attended Husson College in Bangor, Maine, where he played basketball for two years. In 1992, he transferred to Manchester College in North Manchester, Indiana, where he played for two seasons under Coach Steve Alford. After completing his playing career, he remained at the college another year to finish his bachelor's degree in physical education. He also worked as a student assistant coach for the basketball program, helping guide the team to an undefeated record during the regular season and a runner-up finish at the NCAA Division III National Tournament. During his three years at the college, the basketball team compiled a record of 74-13.

"I'm excited to have Gerad joining our staff," coach Fife said. "He's an Indiana guy who has built a reputation at John Logan as a quality recruiter within the Midwest and as a great mentor to his players. He will do well here at IPFW."

Good and his wife, the former Robin Kilgore, a native of Fort Wayne, have one son named Miles.
