Howard has been looking for a new head coach after a brutal 2006-2007 campaign. The Bison finished 8-20 last season, and felt like it was time to turn the page. This page will begin with a new chapter, with Quinn Cook leading the way. Cook is a 26 year old, ex-ball player himself. Cook was a power forward at the college of Charleston where he finished wit career averages of 12.6 point per game, and 8.9 rebounds per game. After finished his career at Charleston he became a GA for 2 years, before going to be an assistant coach at Idaho for three years, and last year assisting under Bob Higgins at West Virginia.
Quinn Cook released an official statement on becoming the head coach:
"I am pleased to announce I have signed a three year deal with the University of Howard to become the men's basketball coach. I am thankful to Charleston, Idaho, and most importantly Bob Higgins who has put my name out there for helping this team become what it has. I will never forget my roots, and everyone I have meant along the way has played a major key into where I am now heading. It doesn't matter if it was playing, coaching on unsuccessful Idaho team's the first two year's, or helping implement Press Virginia this past year, everything I have learned will influence my coaching today."
*I will be using updated rosters*
