We were lucky enough to have him in Buffalo for a couple years to coach our UB Bulls, now he's moved on to Alabama and he's improved their team immensely too.
The UB Men's Basketball season ended on Sunday with a loss to Texas Tech in the NCAA Tournament. But today, there's more news from that program as head coach Nate Oats inks a deal with Alabama.
He won a MAC Championship in his very first year as the head coach for The Bulls. He also took his team to the NCAA tournament and won 20 games this season. Today, The Bulls rewarded Head Coach Nate Oats to a 5 year contract at UB.
UB had what was arguably one of their most exciting seasons last year. They made it to the big dance and were on televisions across the nation. They're back again this year with a new head coach and new players but a huge drive to be better than they were last year.
