Congrats coach! 🤟
There are 362 NCAA Division I head men’s basketball coaching positions in the country. I don’t take for granted how fortunate I am to be offered the opportunity to lead one of these programs, specifically, Houston Christian University (HCU). First, I want to thank the Lord for this opportunity. I want to thank HCU President Dr. Sloan, Director of Athletics Steve Moniaci, Deputy Athletic Director Stan Williamson, and James and Ann Bryant. All five of you have played a vital role in allowing my family the opportunity to move to Houston to join your prestigious institution. Thanks for your belief in me and our vision to reimagine and reinvigorate the men’s basketball program. I would like to thank and honor Coach Ron Cottrell and his coaching staffs who spent the last 33 years leading the HCU basketball program. This includes long-time assistants Steven Key and Jud Kinne as well as many other assistants. Ron and his staff dominated the NAIA and Red River Conference days of the 90’s and early 2000’s. They fearlessly led the program back to the NCAA Division I level, through the probationary period, to the Great West Conference, and to the Southland Conference. It is a privilege to follow Coach Cottrell and build on his body of work. I am grateful for the previous colleges and universities who afforded me the opportunity to lead their programs. Rock Valley College, Graceland University, and most recently and for the last six years, Emporia State University. I will be posting an in-depth message thanking some specific people who changed my life from Emporia State in the coming days. In the meantime, I want to express my gratitude for your support and love during our ESU tenure. The Emporia community is incredible. Alexys and I not only raised our four children in the community but we also watched your children grow, too. It was a special time in our family’s life. Thanks to my wife and children, my parents, my assistants, and our former student-athletes. College athletics is all about people and creating value for each other. Thanks for partnering with me each day as we pressed forward to make degree progress, impact our community, and win games and championships. The work continues with great excitement for the future at Houston Christian University. As George Strait famously sings, “Take me to Texas.” Proverbs 19:21
