Perry was fired after the last game in March;[3][4] Pfeifer was promoted later in the month,[5][6] then compiled a two-season record of 12–48 (.200). He was fired in March 2008 with a year remaining on his three-year contract,[7][8] succeeded by Don Verlin, an assistant at Utah State,[9] and a previous finalist for the job in 2006.[10]

A few months later, Pfeifer was hired as the head coach at Montana State–Billings in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference. After three seasons at the Division II school, his contract was not renewed in 2011 and he became an assistant coach in the Big Sky Conference under Brad Huse at Montana State in Bozeman.[11]

In2013, Pfiefer started working in basketball operations under head coach Mark FewatGonzaga UniversityinSpokane.

His two-year record at LC was 37–15 (.712), but in the late summer of 2016, Priefer resigned as the head coach to pursue a full-time teaching job in Spokane.
