Illinois State names Brian Reese assistant basketball coach

Posted Jun 1, 2016
Brian Reese learned from one of college basketball's coaching legends in the late Dean Smith. He knows what it's like to reach the top, too, as a starting small forward when UNC won the 1993 NCAA title. Reese believes he can share those experiences and help Illinois State reach its goals, too. The 44-year-old was named the Redbirds' newest assistant coach Tuesday. (Bloomington Pantagraph)
