The team was led by third-year head coach Jamion Christian, who prior to the season was given a contract extension to coach the team through the 2018–19 season.[1]
Newcomers to the team included Chris Martin and Andrew Smeathers, transfers from Marshall and Butler, respectively.[2] Martin joined the team at the beginning of the season; however, due to NCAA transfer rules, Smeathers was unable to join the team until the December 20 game against American, the first game after the end of the fall semester.[3] Other incoming players included freshmen Troy Henderson, Chris Manning, Lamont "Junior" Robinson, Mawdo "Mo" Sallah and Chris Wray.[4] At 5-foot-5, Robinson was the shortest player in Division I men's basketball for the 2014–15 season.[5]
The Mountaineers finished the season 15–15, 11–7 in NEC play, to finish fourth in the conference. They lost in the quarterfinals of the 2015 NEC tournament to St. Francis (PA).
