The life of Larry Brown
Posted Jul 28, 2005
Larry Brown's resume is as long as Shaquille O'Neal's wingspan, and every bit as impressive. Since he was graduated from North Carolina in 1963, he has coached seven NBA teams, two ABA teams, two NCAA Division I teams, as well as one that did not make it on to his Hall of Fame resume. That was his first head-coaching job, at Davidson College, which he left before he coached a game.
