Michael Brooker is experiencing coaching success at his alma mater
Posted Jan 31, 2007
It certainly wasn't going to be easy for Michael Brooker. Going home never is. But Brooker had a lot expected of him when he returned to Sandersville to coach basketball at Brentwood, his alma mater. Brooker went off to college with a lot of pageantry to play for Dean Smith at North Carolina. After a self-admitted unspectacular playing career at UNC and coaching high school basketball in North Carolina, Brooker decided to return home.
