ACC Question Mark: Can Brad Brownell Survive?

Back in 2003, as some of you will remember, UNC-W came within a whisker of knocking off defending national champions Maryland in the first round. Only a clutch Drew Nicholas jumper kept the Terps from a humiliating upset. And it was a beautiful shot as you’ll see on the replay here. Look for the slo-mo near the end. Under heavy pressure, he hit a beautiful clutch shot. Didn’t even touch the rim.

And if you’ll look carefully on the replay, you’ll see Brad Brownell on the sideline.

That was his team. After that he went to Wright State, where he went toe-to-toe in the Horizon League against Butler and rising star Brad Stevens for several seasons, where he certainly held his own.
