Flynn comes to Marshall after working as an assistant coach at UMASS-Boston under New England Hall of Fame coach Charlie Titus. Flynn was responsible for offensive systems, advance scouting and film preparation as well as regional recruiting.
Flynn has been very active with Fidelity House basketball, having been head coach for the Fidelity House Kings AAU 15U and 14U teams. Flynn also assisted on a 17 U team that featured Notre Dame's Patrick Connaughton in regional tournaments with the FIHO Kings in 2010.

During this time, he coached girls' basketball at Jeremiah Burke High School in Dorchester, Mass. under the legendary John "Boo" Rice. The pair led the Bulldogs to the Boston City League Championship game and a 19-4 record on a team that featured Mississippi State signee Kadijah Ellison.
During summers in Boston, Flynn served as the South Boston site director for the Boston Neighborhood Basketball league, America's longest running free summer basketball league.
In addition to BNBL, Flynn is a tireless clinician at Hoop Mountain and Five-Star.
