Chinese National Team vs UBC Thunderbirds!! Get your tickets now because this event will sell out FAST!!

Dear friends and colleagues, After 6 years and 5 seasons with the Thunderbirds, I have decided to leave my coaching duties at UBC and explore some different opp...ortunities. It has been an honour to be part of UBC (my dad's alma mater), and in particular, it has been thrilling to be a part of UBC Athletics and its peerless success in Canadian university sport. It has also been an honour to be part of the UBC Basketball program, and I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Kevin Hanson for being a great mentor and for allowing me the opportunity to coach basketball for a living at one of the top programs in the country. During our 5 seasons together, we went 117-46 (77-24 in conference play), and over the past 4 years we went 102-30 (66-14 in conference play). That's a lot of wins - and although we never won the big trophy, the program is clearly on the right track and these young guys we've got now have the talent, the work ethic, and the character to become a championship team very soon. By far the most rewarding aspect of coaching at UBC has been the close relationships I have built with our coaching staff (Vern and D), colleagues, fans and supporters, trainers, the Tuesday Knights, and most of all, the 38 players I had the absolute pleasure of coaching during my time here. ALL of you have had an incredible impact on my life, and for that I am truly grateful. I think it's safe to say that many of us will remain good friends forever. My last official day at UBC will be June 15th, so if you're around the gym before that, please feel free to pop by and try to convince me to go for a beer. After the 15th, I'll be working hard getting ready for the next phase... Ultimately, my goal at UBC was to leave the jersey in a better place - something that my legendary predecessors Randy Nohr and Casey Archibald both managed to do. I hope I've also managed to do that.
