Not a big or overly meaningful change. I was taking a look at the athletic department staff directory today for, uh, obvious and non-basketball related reasons, and noticed that Jacalyn Murphy, who has been the men’s and women’s basketball nutritionist since 2022, is no longer at Pitt, and appears to have been hired by the Utah Jazz.
In her place is Dolapo Balogun, who was most recently the dietician for the basketball programs at IMG Academy. Prior to that, she was at the University of San Francisco, where she was the women’s Director of Operations and dietician after having finished her basketball career there.
I know that the Diazes-Graham both praised Murphy for helping them put on weight, so let’s hope that continues with the new hire!
