Gregory Missed
At the bottom of the Sedric Toney Article today:
GREGORY MISSED: After freshmen Juwan Staten and Brandon Spearman transferred, there were rumblings that players had soured on coach Brian Gregory and would have preferred playing for someone else.
Not true, said junior forward Luke Fabrizius.
“Everybody on this team would say they loved playing for BG,” Fabrizius said. “People use the term ‘player’s coach.’ He was definitely a player’s coach. Everybody gets along with him. He would do anything for us, and I think we can say we’d do the same thing for him.”
At least one former Flyer shared that sentiment. When Gregory left to take the Georgia Tech job, Charles Little, who graduated in 2009 and is playing professionally in Portugal, put this post on his Facebook page: “Dayton, Ohio, the place that changed my life. Brian Gregory the man who saved my life!!”
Like his coaching or not, he didn't leave the program with too many enemies. I think it says a lot about what UD is all about.
