Courtney Bailey was in charge of running BU's high-octane offence in the late 1980's and he made sure the Bobcats never missed a beat.
The 'backbone of the backcourt' finished his five-year career with back-to-back national titles in 1987 and 1988.
Bailey joined the Bobcats in 1983 after being recruited out of Toronto. By the end of his fourth season, he was a major award winner after earning the prestigious Jim Casey trophy for sportsmanship.
In his final season, the Great Plains Athletic Conference recognized him as a second team all-star and he was also named the Bobcats' co-MVP alongside Patrick Jebbison.
Bailey made the journey overseas following his Bobcat career and has spent close to 30 years teaching in seven different countries. He has served as an athletic director and coached basketball, golf, soccer and softball teams in Cambodia, China, the Congo, Dubai, Egypt, the Ivory Coast and Tanzania. Under his guidance, his programs have won over ten international championships.
