Clay Wilson joined the Mean Green staff during the summer of 2021.Â
Wilson came to North Texas from Cornell where he was an assistant coach from 2018 to 2021. During his time with Big Red, Wilson helped develop a number of players who had career years, including All-Ivy guard Terrance McBride and second-team CoSIDA Academic All-American Jimmy Boeheim. The Big Red's offensive numbers surged in Ivy play, showing the constant improvement of a young team. The 2020-21 campaign was wiped out due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Prior to joining Cornell's coaching staff, he was the co-founder, co-owner and trainer for Elev8hoops in Oklahoma. He helped create one of the largest skill development programs in the region with more than 600 clients. He co-founded the Clay Wilson and David Mason Skill Academy, instructing more than 400 campers and organizing logistics for eight separate camps.
Wilson is a 2015 Princeton graduate where one of his assistant coaches was current Cornell head coach Brian Earl. At Princeton, Wilson helped lead the Tigers to 74 wins over his four seasons on the team. He was named the school's Bob Rock Sixth Man of the Year in his final season. He played on a pair of teams that advanced to postseason play, earning a spot in the CIB quarterfinals in 2012 and 2014. After graduating he played professional basketball in Germany, New Zealand and Latvia.
