Jay Joyner is an American college basketball coach and current head coach for the North Carolina A&T Aggies men's basketball team.
Joyner played college basketball at South Carolina State under Cy Alexander, and was a part of the Bulldogs 1996 NCAA Tournament squad. After college he played for the CB 1939 Canarias in Spain's Liga ACB, but retired due to nagging knee problems and his first child on the way.
Joyner's college coaching career began under Alexander at Tennessee State, where he served as an assistant coach. He'd then move on to assistant coaching jobs at Columbia State, Rutgers, and Cumberland before returning to Columbia State as head coach. In three seasons with the Chargers, he compiled a 61-23 record and two Tennessee Junior and Community College Athletic Association regular season titles.
When Alexander was named the head coach at North Carolina A&T, Joyner joined his staff as an assistant coach. He was elevated to the head coaching position on March 7, 2016 after Alexander resigned.
‡ Alexander resigned 1/29/16; Joyner coached rest of season.
