I’m ever so grateful for that.

This shows the commitment they’ve made to me and the men’s basketball program. Hopefully, we can continue to have success in leading the program, and we can make all our administration, student-athletes, and alumni proud of the work we do here each and every day. I’m excited about where we’re going, and I’m happy to be a Brave.”
