Nebraska men’s basketball coach Tim Miles checked one worry off his list over the weekend, knowing his staff of assistants would stay intact.

Michael Lewis, just finishing his first season at NU, confirmed to The World-Herald that he interviewed Friday night for the head coach opening at Butler. Lewis was an assistant at the Big East school for five years before coming to Nebraska.

Lewis said he was informed Sunday night he didn’t get the job. On Monday night, Butler announced Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s LaVall Jordan — another former Butler assistant — as its new coach.

Lewis is seen in basketball circles as a definite head coach prospect. He earlier drew interest from Miami of Ohio and Austin Peay.

At Nebraska, Lewis replaced Phil Beckner, who was at NU one season. Beckner replaced Rashon Burno, who left after 50 days to go to Arizona State.
