Former University of Kentucky player Dale Brown has accepted the head coaching job at NCAA DII program Clark Atlanta University.
CAU is a member of the SIAC conference, which includes Kentucky State University.
Brown has offered an assistant’s job to former UK teammate Tony Delk.
Here is an excerpt from AJC.com:
[QUOTE]Today isn’t about what has happened in the past, it’s about building a team to ensure that we play even harder, work even smarter and aim even higher in the future,” associate athletic director D’Wayne Robinson said Wednesday upon the introduction of Dale Brown as the next head coach of the CAU men’s basketball program.
“I must say, we will win, and we will win right away,” Brown said. “My philosophy is real simple: Play hard, play smart and play together.”
Brown’s basketball résumé is extensive. During his junior college days at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, Brown was named NJCAA men’s basketball player of the year in 1991.
After two years at MGCC, Brown caught the eye of Kentucky coach Rick Pitino. Brown finished his playing eligibility at Kentucky, helping the Wildcats to an Elite Eight appearance in 1992 and a Final Four appearance in 1993.
