Jeff Reynolds (born (1956-09-07)September 7, 1956) is an American college basketball coach. Reynolds is currently Director of Men’s Basketball Operations under Head Coach Buzz Williams at Virginia Tech, where his responsibilities include scheduling, academic supervision, recruiting, and travel among other things.

After two seasons as an assistant coach at the United States Air Force Academy, in April 2007 Reynolds was named to succeed Jeff Bzdelik as head coach. Athletic director Hans Mueh said he was "absolutely blown away by (Reynolds’) passion, emotion and vision."[1] In five seasons, Reynolds guided the Falcons to one postseason appearance and was one of only two coaches in program history with multiple conference tournament wins.[2] He was fired on February 8, 2012.[3]

Reynolds then became Director of Men’s Basketball Operations at Marquette, where he served from 2012-14[4] before taking his current position with Virginia Tech. While at Marquette, the Golden Eagles advanced to the Elite Eight of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament.

Previously, Reynolds was a successful head coach at the Division II level at Wingate University and the Division III level at North Carolina Wesleyan College. His overall record as a head coach is 145-116 and with a 100% graduation rate for seniors.

Reynolds started his coaching career at James Madison University in 1981, serving as a part-time assistant.[5] He also served as an assistant coach at Tulane University, Randolph-Macon College, Winthrop University, UNC-Wilmington, and UNC-Greensboro, where as an undergrad he played basketball for the Spartans.
