Esposito is currently the associate head coach at The University of Missouri Kansas City and still a Basketball Analyst on ESPN Las Vegas on his free time.

He has head coaching experience at Assumption College, Angelo State University and The Villages Charter Schools.

The Greyhounds rattled off three straight Northeast-10 Conference Championships in 1990, 1991 and 1992, and notched a pair of NCAA Division II Tournament regional appearances.

Esposito was responsible for recruiting three Ohio Valley Conference Freshman of the Year award winners.

In his second year, he took the Rams to the Lone Star Conference Tournament and wins over nationally ranked Midwestern State and Central Oklahoma.

He left the program as one of the winningest coaches in Lone Star Conference history, and graduated 100% of all his four-year players.

[3] Esposito joined Coach Smith at Minnesota on the heels of several disappointing seasons for the Gophers, who had made the NCAA Tournament only once since Monson's hiring in 1999.

In the first season, the team improved from 8–22 in 2006–07 to 20–14 in 2007–08, and reached the Big Ten Tournament semifinals after defeating second-seeded Indiana.

On April 6, 2013, Texas Tech Tubby Smith announced the hiring of Joe Esposito as an Assistant Basketball Coach.

[4] Texas Tech had failed to make the NCAA tournament in the 7 years prior to Smith's hire at the school.

The second season started with an incredible recruiting class as they attempted to improve the Red Raiders talent level.

They added Keenan Evans, Justin Gray, Norense Odiase, and Zach Smith in the offseason in the hopes of improving a depleted Red Raider team.

The Red Raiders had their first victory over a top 25 team since the 2009 season with a January 15, 2014 upset over the #9 Iowa State Cyclones.

The Red Raiders eventually led a turnaround and won 3 straight games against ranked opponents for the first time in school history.

The season featured young stars Evans, Gray, Odiase, and Smith as well as senior leaders Devaugntah Williams and Toddrick Gotcher.

The turnaround was the biggest in the Big 12 with the Red Raiders completing a six-game improvement from the year prior in arguably the toughest conference in the country.

Conference tournament champion Esposito is married to former Mary Huglen and has two sons, Jordan and Jacob and two daughters, Shay and Harmony
