JACKSON, Miss. Jackson State has named Larry McNeil as its interim women's basketball coach for the 2011-12 season. McNeil, who had been an assistant coach with the Lady Tigers from 2001-2008, comes back to Jackson State following a season as an assistant coach at North Texas last season. While at Jackson State McNeil helped the Lady Tigers win the SWAC titles in 2002-03 and 03-04 with consecutive 23-win seasons. "I'm very excited to be back at Jackson State," said McNeil. "I have always said that Jackson State women's basketball is a sleeping giant and now it's time to awaken that giant. A successful season for me right now will be a 12-6 conference record, because the bonding period that has to occur will take approximately a month." Jackson State will begin a national search to name the full time head coach late in the spring of 2012.
