  "textContent": "The BYU Cougars men’s basketball program has lost a key member of its coaching staff.\n\nEarlier this week, Boise State announced that it has hired former Cougars associate head coach Will Voigt to the same position.\n\n“Boise has been my home base for over a decade,” Voigt said in a school news release. “I’m elated to be closer to my kids and work for a highly-successful and consistent program as we transition into the Pac-12.\n\n“I would like to thank coach (Leon) Rice and (Boise State athletic director) Jeramiah Dickey for this tremendous opportunity.”\n\nOn Thursday, Voigt wrote a similar message on social media.\n\n> Thank you @JeramiahDickey and Coach Rice for the opportunity to join @BroncoSportsMBB as we join the new @pac12 #GoBroncos https://t.co/THEcDKyYem pic.twitter.com/3YLvxkf1uK\n>\n> — Will Voigt (@CoachWillVoigt) July 2, 2026\n\nBoise State, along with several other programs including Utah State, officially joined the Pac-12 Conference on Wednesday.\n\nThis will be the latest stop in a fascinating basketball journey for the 49-year-old Voigt that has included time in the NBA, college, professional club ball overseas, minor league basketball in the United States (including the NBA G League) and two African national teams.\n\nVoigt arrived at BYU in 2024 most known for inventing the “peel switch” defensive scheme, but he was also considered the Cougars’ “offensive coordinator.”\n\nAs far as the Cougars’ coaching staff is considered moving forward, Tim Fanning still also holds the title of associate head coach, while Brandon Dunson, Chris Burgess and John Linehan all have the title of assistant coach.",
