Tennessee State University just announced Nolan Smith, former NBA player and Duke basketball star, as their new men’s head basketball coach. His most recent position was assistant coach at the University of Memphis, under Penny Hardaway. 📍A quote from Smith on the tsutigers website states: “It’s an honor and a privilege to be named head coach at TSU,” Smith said. “First and foremost, I’m ready to give my heart and energy to our players every single day as we prepare to win and proudly represent the university and the state. I’m excited to immerse myself in the TSU and Nashville community and contribute far beyond the court. I’m built for this challenge — and TSU is built to win. So let’s win! Go Tigers!” . . . #hbcu #Historicallyblacksince #blackexcellence #tennesseestateuniversity
