Dr. Joe Brickner grew up in Ohio but attended college in Kansas where he was a basketball student-athlete. He has always loved the game of basketball, but to put bread on the table, he pursued a business career. Nearly 30 years into that career, he got an opportunity to pursue his dream and become a men’s head college basketball coach. His first book, “So, You Want to Be a Coach…” is his story, told with the endearing anecdotes that life presents – some will make you laugh, and some will make you cry.
