2008 Woodie Awards
Welcome, Ben Braun
Issue date: 4/11/08 Section: Opinion
Roughly three weeks after announcing the release of head men's basketball coach Willis Wilson (Will Rice '82), Athletics Director Chris Del Conte announced at a press conference Monday that Ben Braun would be his successor (see story, page 1).
Braun is welcome here as a new spark who we hope can rekindle a slow-burning program. We hope he keeps in mind, however, that he can certainly find winning players who also have academic abilities to match their athletic talents. Basketball honors at Rice are attainable, despite our academic standards, and we wish Braun the best of luck in winning them.
