Lindenwood University, my collegiate alma mater, has just tabbed Brad Soderberg as its new men's basketball coach.
That is quite a get for the NAIA college program. Soderberg was the head coach at Saint Louis University for six seasons before his departure after the 2007 season. He was also the interim coach at the University of Wisconsin for part of one season after his mentor Dick Bennett resigned.
Brad is merely returning to his basketball roots. He was a basketball standout at Wisconsin-Stevens Point, where he was a backcourt mate with former NBA standout Terry Porter on a team that played for the NAIA championship in 1984.
Brad also lived in St. Charles during his stint as the Billikens coach, so he and his family are now back in the community that he enjoys.
Congrats and welcome back, Sodie.
