MIAMI, Ohio - Miami of Ohio says former Iowa coach Todd Lickliter has been hired as an assistant on Charlie Coles' staff.

Lickliter was fired by the Hawkeyes in the spring of 2010 after three straight losing seasons.

Lickliter previously spent six seasons at Butler, leading the Bulldogs to a pair of trips to the NCAA tournament's round of 16.

Coles says Lickliter is a long-time friend whose coaching abilities he has admired for years.
