New Morgan State head men's basketball coach Kevin Broadus said Todd Bozeman, who held the same position from 2006-2019, was an influential voice in persuading him to take the job this spring when Broadus was considering offers from Morgan and Howard University.
"He, frankly, told me the better job is Morgan," Broadus said on Glenn Clark Radio May 22. "At first I couldn't see it. I really couldn't see it at first. Then when I went through the process, he was absolutely right. The infrastructure at Morgan is so tight and so good that it was almost like, 'Wow. I've got to do this.'"
The Bears earned their first-ever NCAA Tournament berth in 2008-09 under Bozeman, and Morgan backed that up with the best season in program history in 2009-10. Morgan went 27-10 and made the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive season behind senior guard Reggie Holmes.
