Larry Brown, the only basketball coach to have won both an NBA and NCAA title, might soon be trying to win a Long Island high school championship, as well.
Brown, the well-traveled basketball coach who played at Long Beach High School in the late 1950s, has expressed interest in the boys varsity coaching vacancy at East Hampton (N.Y.) High School, athletic director Joe Vasile-Cozzo said Tuesday.
“In fairness to Larry, he has maintained that he isn't sure, but that if he does do it, he wants to be in it 100 percent,” Vasile-Cozzo said in a telephone interview on Tuesday.
