Capel will become the youngest head coach in D-1 and brings with him the Capel basketball knowledge that seems to have blessed the Capel-genes for generations to come. Capel is the 3rd coach in the immediate family as Dad, Jeff Jr. is an assistant with the Charlotte Bobcats and big brother, Jeff III is head man at the upstart Oklahoma program. Capel replaces Buzz Peterson, another UNC alum who decided recently to take the head coaching position at UNCW (Wilmington). Capel, entering only his second year of coaching experience after serving as assistant coach last season at App says "We have a great group of guys in place in our program, and I'm really proud to be able to coach them," Capel said. "I know that we're all in this together and I'm ready to work hard."
Congratulations to the 30 year old head coach!
