Horace Broadnax made a name for
himself during his college career by
helping lead Georgetown University to
the 1984 NCAA Men’s National
Championship Title and as National
Championship runner-ups in 1985.
Horace’s Georgetown team was an
incredible 115-25 over his four-year
career, including 30 plus wins seasons
in 1984 and 1985. After receiving his
Finance degree from Georgetown in
1986, Horace continued on in his
studies, obtaining his Juris Doctorate
from Florida State University in 1991.
Today he remains one of the only
coaches in the NCAA to have such a
prestigious post-graduate degree as a
Juris Doctorate.
Savannah State University Athletics
Director Tony O’Neal named Horace
Broadnax the head coach for the
Savannah State University men’s
basketball team on April 11, 2005.
Horace has revived the Savannah State
University Men’s Basketball Program. A
school that finished winless just one
year before Horace took over as Head
Coach, the program has gone on to win
25 games over the last two seasons!
Broadnax came to SSU after practicing
law for three years. Prior, he was the
head men’s basketball coach at
Bethune-Cookman College in Daytona
Beach, Fla., from 1997 until 2002. The
Plant City, Fla., native is credited
with reviving the men’s basketball
program at Bethune-Cookman College.
During his second year as head coach,
Broadnax was voted the men’s Coach of
the Year in the Mid-Eastern Athletic
Conference (MEAC) after turning around
a team that finished 1-26 in his first
year as coach to a fifth-place finish
with a 10-9 conference record.
Broadnax earned the title again after
the men’s team earned its first number
one ranking in the MEAC during the
1999-2000 regular season. Broadnax
stepped down in 2002 for family
reasons.
Prior to joining Bethune-Cookman
College, Broadnax was the head men’s
basketball coach at Valencia Community
College in Orlando, Fla., for two
years, where he recorded the school’s
first 20-win season in 1996-97. He
also worked as the video coordinator
for the men’s basketball team at the
University of Florida and held
assistant basketball coaching
positions at Bethune-Cookman and
Florida A&M University in Tallahassee,
Fla.
He is married to Tammy Broadnax and
the couple has two sons, Horace Kaleb
and Randall Trent.
