Paul Mills (Wichita State Basketball Coach) Talks Oral Roberts, NIL, and God's Calling

The UNPACKIN' it Podcast With Bryce Johnson

Bryce interviews current Wichita State men's basketball coach Paul Mills. They unpack Coach Mills' second season with the Shockers, handling pressure as a basketball coach, the state of college basketball, the importance of reading Scripture, and how to steward our calling.

Mills spent 14 years as a Baylor assistant under Scott Drew, and then took his first head coaching job at Oral Roberts, turning the Golden Eagles from Summit League bottom-dwellers to undefeated champions over a six-year span (2017-23) with NCAA tournament bids in two of the last three years.

In 2021, Mills became the second coach to guide a No. 15 seed to Sweet 16, upsetting Ohio State and Florida in the first two rounds before losing a heartbreaker to Arkansas in the South Regional Semifinal.

He is a husband and father of two daughters and received his Master’s Degree from Dallas Theological Seminary in 2020.
