According to a Binghamton University press release, the Bearcats have hired a new assistant coach for the men’s basketball team.
The announcement came Thursday that Ron Brown, former associate head coach for Fairleigh Dickinson University, would join interim head coach Mark Macon and the rest of the men’s basketball coaching staff.
Macon, who was reassigned from assistant coach to replace head coach Kevin Broadus on an interim basis in October, had his contract extended by two years in April.
Brown was with the basketball team at FDU for eight years. He was also an assistant at West Virginia University for eight seasons (1985-93), at Long Island University for four years (1998-2002) and at Western Kentucky for one year (1997-98). He was head coach at Florida A&M for three seasons (1993-96).
Brown begins his coaching at BU after a year of turnover and rebuilding for the team.
