Shockers complete coaching staff for upcoming season

The Wichita State men’s basketball coaching staff is now complete with the newest addition, Billy Kennedy.

Kennedy most recently served as the head coach for Texas A&M and will fill the vacancy left after Interim Head Coach Isaac Brown’s promotion last week.

“I’m excited to welcome Billy to our basketball family,” Brown said in a statement. “He has been a mentor of mine for over 30 years and has proven himself as a coach at the highest levels. His experience and teaching ability will help our young team.”

Kennedy brings more than 22 years of head coaching experience to the coaching staff after serving as a Division-I head coach at Centenary University (1997-1999), Southeastern Louisiana University (1999-2005), Murray State University (2006-2011) and Texas A&M University (2011-2019).
