Coaching career

After completing his degree in 1998, Myers served as a graduate assistant at Tennessee for the 1999 season. He also completed a master's degree in that year. He then earned a position as a full-time assistant coach at UNC Asheville for the 2000 season, and was elevated to head coach the following year. He helped rebuild a struggling program, leading the Bulldogs to the top half of the Big South Conference as one of the youngest coaches in Division I. He earned Big South Conference Coach of the Year honors in 2003 and a 4th-place finish. He then moved to Auburn as an assistant for three seasons. His pitching staff ranked among the program's best in his three years in ERA and also recorded strong results in saves and walks. In June 2007, Myers moved to WKU, and added associate head coach duties two years later. He was named head coach prior to the 2012 season. In four seasons, Myers's teams failed to reach the 30-win mark or finish better than 16-14 in conference play, and he was fired at the end of the 2015 season.
