Legendary coach to speak at FCCS
There are few people in the sports world that are able to transcend beyond the field or court to truly inspire people the way Dale Brown has.
For some, Brown will always be remembered for coaching the LSU Tigers to two Final Four appearances in the late 1980s. The South Dakota native coached legendary LSU hoops players such as Shaquille O'Neal, Chris Jackson, Don Redden, Ricky Blanton and countless more greats on his way to accumulating 448 career wins and four SEC titles during his time in Baton Rouge.
