NCCU's LeVelle Moton Interviews with Iowa State

DURHAM, North Carolina -- In late March 2014, LeVelle Moton took his No. 14 seeded North Carolina Central Eagles to San Antonio to face No. 3 seed Iowa State in the NCAA Tournament. At 28-6 overall and 15-1 in the MEAC, Moton’s team was far from a push-over, despite the 18-point loss to the Cyclones.

On Sunday, WRAL confirmed Moton has interviewed for the Iowa State job recently vacated by Fred Hoiberg as he pursues an NBA job with the Chicago Bulls.

Moton has not yet been offered the position in Ames, but this is not the first time his name has been called in promotion circles.

In six seasons at NCCU, Moton has boasted a 114-75 overall record, including a 56-8 conference record in the MEAC. Moton, has been courted nearly every offseason since returning to his alma mater in 2009, most notably by George Mason at the end of this season’s NIT appearance.
