Notre Dame announced Friday the addition of Mike Farrelly as an assistant men's basketball coach under head coach Micah Shrewsberry.
Farrelly was on Shrewsberry's staff at Penn State the past two seasons.
“My family and I are thrilled to come to South Bend and become part of the Notre Dame community," Farrelly said in a statement released by the university. "Working for Coach Shrewsberry for the last two years has been unbelievably rewarding and I am really excited to help him continue to build on the great tradition of Notre Dame basketball. Notre Dame is a special place and I can’t wait to get started."
Before joining Shrewsberry at Penn State, Farrelly coached at Hofstra for eight seasons including a stretch as the acting head coach during the 2020-21 season. Farrelly also coached at Niagara and Mount Saint Mary's. He played for Phil Martelli at St. Joseph's and graduated in 2003.
“Mike was a big part of the success that we were able to have at Penn State,” Shrewsberry said in a released statement. “Mike’s energy and drive are unmatched. One of Mike’s greatest strengths lies in his ability to build relationships and connect both with his current players and recruits. I know Mike will be a great leader and great addition to our program. We are happy to welcome Mike, Gina, MJ, and Ryan Farrelly to the Notre Dame family.”
