Mitch Buonaguro

Mitch Buonaguro (born December 4, 1953) is an American college basketball coach and current consultant at Saint Rose.

Buonaguro was an assistant coach under Rollie Massimino for the national champion 1984–85 Villanova Wildcats men's basketball team.

During his first season, he coached the Stags to its first MAAC Championship, first berth in NCAA tournament where the Stags faced the Illinois Fighting Illini in the first round; and ended the year with a 24–7 record, the most wins in school history.

The following season, Buonaguro coached Fairfield through an injury-plagued season to mount an improbable run to its second consecutive MAAC Championship and to earn its second consecutive bid to the NCAA tournament where the Stags faced the top-seeded and eventual national champion Indiana Hoosiers in the first round.

Buonaguro became a special consultant for Saint Rose's men's and women's basketball teams.
