Prairie View A&M University head women’s basketball coach Dawn Brown will not return next season, Athletic Director Ashley Robinson announced this afternoon.
Brown led the Lady Panthers to a Southwestern Athletic conference championship and NCAA national tournament berth in 2014, her first year as permanent head coach. She was the top assistant under former PVAMU head coach Toyelle Wilson, who won three consecutive SWAC tournament titles before leaving to become an assistant coach at Baylor University.
Brown finished with a 41-51 overall record.
I wonder what the problem was, Coach Brown had the program on the right path. I guess I get upset at college programs pulling the plug to early on coaches because everybody wants to win today. News flash in the grand scheme of college athletics for every champion you have 100+ losers. That is just how it goes. Our HBCU programs need to be more concerned with how coach graduate players and prepare our next generation leaders. Just a thought.
