COLLEGE

After Harriman's rookie season in the NBL he moved to the United States to attend Augusta State (Ga.) University. Harriman tallied 627 points and 375 assists in his playing career at ASU and was named league Player of the Week in January 2003. As a senior, he led the Peach Belt Conference in steals. Harriman led ASU to two NCAA Division II Tournaments and one PBC North Division title, and he was a part of 78 victories.

After graduating from Augusta State in 2003, Harriman returned to Australia to play for the Hunter Pirates.

COACHING HISTORY

After his professional playing career, Harriman joined the coaching staff at Nova Southeastern in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. where he helped the team to 48 wins over a four-year span. The 2005-06 Sharks squad finished with 17 wins, which marked the largest single-season NCAA Division II turnaround in 15 years.

Harriman also studied under the late Rick Majerus as an assistant coach at Saint Louis from 2008 to 2012. Working side-by-side with Majerus, Harriman helped the Billikens to a pair of 20-win seasons as they improved from the ninth-place team in the Atlantic 10 in 2008 to a second-place finish in his last year in 2012. In his final year at SLU, Harriman helped develop the Billikens into an NCAA top 25 leader in scoring defense, scoring margin, turnover margin and turnovers per game. He assumed head coach duties at SLU for one game after Majerus was hospitalized and led the team to a 75-60 win over Duquesne. The Billikens earned an NCAA Tournament berth, advancing to the round of 32 after defeating Memphis in the first round.

Harriman then spent three seasons as an assistant at Nebraska under Tim Miles, guiding Terran Petteway, Shavon Shields and Dylan Talley into All-Big Ten selections during his tenure in Lincoln. Petteway led the conference in scoring in 2013/14 and became the first Cornhusker to earn a league scoring title in six decades. Nebraska also made the NCAA Tournament that same season for the first time in 15 years.

He was responsible for recruiting New Zealand guard Tai Webster, who later went on to play for the New Zealand Tall Blacks as well as the NBL.

In 2015 he joined New Mexico University, taking on the role of new associate head coach to Craig Neal. In 2017-18, Harriman helped the Lobos finish third in the Mountain West in the regular season after being selected to finish ninth overall. Harriman spent four seasons as the associate head coach at the University of New Mexico, where he oversaw all aspects of the basketball program, including scheduling, recruiting and player development. He started with the Lobos under head coach Craig Neal in April 2015 and was the only assistant retained after Paul Weir was hired as New Mexico’s new head coach in 2017.

Harriman’s joined the University of Cal (Berkley) as the first assistant hired to head coach Mark Fox’s staff in April 2019. Once there, he helped guide the Bears to a 14-18 overall record, up from 8-23 in the year prior, while increasing their conference win total to seven wins after securing just three wins the previous season. Cal swept both the Washington and Mountain programs in Berkeley, which included an upset of No. 21 Colorado at Haas Pavilion. The Bears capped off the season with a victory over rival Stanford at the Pac-12 Tournament before the season was cut short due to COVID-19.

      The possibility of an NBL expansion team in Geelong has gained momentum, with league owner Larry Kestelman confirming the city is a strong candidate—provided it can secure a suitable venue.

      A second Sydney NBL team is expected to be the league’s next expansion franchise, with Gold Coast, Darwin, and Canberra all encountering significant roadblocks in recent months. It’s believed the Harbour City Stars is the leading candidate for the team name, following a branding strategy similar to how San Francisco’s Golden State Warriors use a regional moniker rather than the city’s name. This broader identity would emphasize the team’s connection to Sydney’s iconic harbor while avoiding geographical constraints within the city. In addition to Harbour…
