The Red Wolves also hired Melvin Haralson as associate head coach in the offseason. Haralson was at Texas Southern last season after spending 1 years as an assistant and associate head coach at Houston. Jeff Clapacs also returns for his fourth season at Arkansas State as an assistant coach. Clapacs has been with Brady since his arrival at Arkansas State. HEAD COACH JOHN BRADY Now in his fourth year with the program John Brady was announced as Arkansas State s 15th head men s basketball coach by Director of Athletics Dr. Dean Lee at a press conference held in ASU s Convocation Center on March 19, 28. In only three years at the helm of the program, Brady has turned the Red Wolves into a winner including capturing a share of the western division Sun Belt Conference Championship in 21-11, posting double-digit Sun Belt Conference wins back-to-back for the first time in nearly 2 years and going undefeated at home with a 13- record. During his first season with the Red Wolves, Brady helped lead ASU to one of the best starts in program history and achieved the No. 22 ranking on Collegeinsider.com s Mid-Major Top 25 poll. As a team ASU greatly improved its defending and rebounding, finishing near the top of the conference in several statistical categories. Brady took a step further in his second season with The Red Wolves, improving their record to and the team advanced to the semifinals of the Sun Belt Tournament finishing second in the west. Brady was named Sun Belt Coach of the Year and the District VII Coach of the Year by the USBWA. ASU led the league in threepoint FG defense, rebounding offense and defensive rebounding. ASU also posted an 11-7 SBC record this season which was its best league mark since the 26-7 season when ASU achieved the same record. Its 11-wins was the seventh-time since ASU joined the Sun Belt that they have posted double-digit league wins. Brady spent the last 1-plus seasons serving as LSU s head coach, leading the Tigers to six postseason berths, two SEC championships and three SEC Western Division titles. Twice named the SEC Coach of the Year, Brady is a proven winner who has a well-documented record of success and a long list of accomplishments. Brady s 16-year tenure as a head coach at both LSU and Samford in Birmingham, Alabama, has been decorated with achievements. He has coached a combined 25 All-TAAC and SEC selections, 48 academic all-conference choices, posted 11 winning seasons and collected five division championships. Brady piled up the third most wins in LSU history with 192 and left Samford after the season as the Bulldog s all-time leader in coaching victories (89) as well. He quickly turned around an LSU s men s basketball program that had suffered four consecutive losing seasons prior to his arrival, leading the Tigers to a 28-6 record, an SEC championship and an NCAA Sweet 16 appearance in just his third season (1999-) at the helm. Under Brady s direction, the Tigers recorded six consecutive winning seasons from 21-2 to 26-7 while making three trips to the NCAA Tournament and two more to the NIT. The 25-6 campaign saw LSU post a 27-9 record and advance to the Final Four for the first time in 2 years.

6 HEAD COACH JOHN BRADY Since Arkansas State hired him as the school's new basketball coach six weeks ago, John Brady -- yes, that John Brady -- has been determined to put his self-described "stamp" on the program. After meeting with each returning member of the team, Brady sought out the trainer and the academic advisers and the sports information officials and the facility management crew. He even sat down with the head of the dance squad. In short, Brady approached every individual who had anything -- however peripheral -- to do with the basketball team. In his spare time, he signed two recruits, restructured the booster club, changed the team uniform and commissioned renovations of the weight room and coaches' offices. He explained his rationale: Players and recruits want to see change, they want to see improvement. Scott Cacciola Memphis Commerical Appeal May 14, 28 John Brady didn t make many promises, only one. He s committed to winning. The newly named Arkansas State basketball coach, Brady said he would teach his teams to play to their strengths...winning has been a signature at every place Brady has coached. Rebuilding troubled programs into respected contenders is another. Matt Roberson, Jonesboro Sun March 2, 28 My commitment is to do everything I possibly can to get this program to the top of the Sun Belt. Whether it s five years or eight years, this could possibly be my last stop. I could coach here eight years and retire somewhere. Every job I ve always taken, my approach is to think long term.
