Thayer comes to MGA after three seasons as an assistant coach at Barry University, a NCAA Division II institution in Miami Shores, Florida and a member of the Sunshine State Conference. Thayer assisted in all aspects of the program with an emphasis on recruiting, player development, and monitoring academics. At Barry, he recruited and developed three Sunshine State All-Conference players and one All-Newcomer player as well as nine players that went on to play professionally.
