Coaching career[edit]

After graduating from Eastern Greene High School in Indiana in 1995, May served as a student manager at Indiana under Bob Knight as an undergraduate from 1996 to 2000.[3] After graduation, he had video and administrative roles with both USC and Indiana before landing his first assistant coaching job at Eastern Michigan, where he was on staff for the 2005–2006 season.[4] May then had subsequent stops at Murray State, and UAB, where he served under former Indiana head coach Mike Davis.[5] He joined the staff at Louisiana Tech where he was an assistant under both Kerry Rupp and Mike White.[6]

May followed White to take an assistant coaching job at Florida, where he served from 2015 to 2018 before being named the head coach at Florida Atlantic on March 22, 2018 replacing Michael Curry.[7][8][9] During his time at Florida Atlantic he compiled a 126–69 record and never finished with a losing season.[10]

On March 24, 2024, May was named the head coach at Michigan, agreeing to a five-year contract, with an average value of $3.75 million annually.[10][11][12]
