I want to thank Chancellor Mike Alexander and Josh Moon for this incredible opportunity,” Gottlieb said in a statement following his hiring. “Every kid has a dream when they grow up, some want to be a firefighter, some want to be president, I always wanted to be a Division I head basketball coach.”

    Green Bay is a member of the Horizon League and was projected to finish at No. 8 in the preseason media poll.
