UMass,
Fred Hill of
Rutgers,
Larry Sudbrook of
St. Bonaventure,
Darin Hendrickson of
Saint Louis, and

Rhode Island have each won the award three times, a conference record. Three of those coaches won their awards in consecutive seasons, Stone from 1994 to 1996, Hill from 1991 to 1993, and Cerrato from 2015 to 2016. Only one other coach,
Rhode Island's
