matt brady -lrb- born october 1 , 1965 -rrb- is an american college basketball coach and the current men 's basketball coach at james madison university .
he was introduced at a press conference on march 26 , 2008 .
brady was formerly the head coach at marist college , departing with a 73 -- 50 record in four years .
he took the red foxes to a maac regular-season championship in 2007 .
marist then advanced to the nit , where it defeated oklahoma state in the first round .
the nit victory was the first ever postseason victory for marist .
at madison , brady took over a program that had n't had a winning record since going 20 -- 9 in the 1999 -- 2000 season under sherman dillard .
however , dillard had little success in ensuing seasons and , like his successor , dean keener , resigned under pressure .
brady inherited an experienced core of upperclassmen from keener and , with a skilled group of freshmen , engineered a respectable inaugural campaign , leading the dukes to an 18 -- 13 regular season record .
thanks to the addition of a new postseason invitational -- the collegeinsider.com tournament -- madison achieved its first 20-win season since 1994 , when hall of fame coach lefty driesell led the program to the ncaa tournament .
the record dipped significantly in 2009 -- 10 , in part because of the loss of two key players to injuries : point guard devon moore , an all-rookie pick in the caa in 2009 , and forward andrey semenov .
