BOCA RATON, FL - Craig Angelos, Florida Atlantic University's athletics director, will introduce the new men's basketball coach at a press conference scheduled for 2 p.m. on Tuesday, May 27, in the Tom Oxley Center's Founders' Lounge, located on the Boca Raton campus, 777 Glades Road, Boca Raton.

The new coach will assume the helm of a program that has compiled a 46-46 record over the last three seasons. During that same time, FAU joined the Sun Belt Conference, which featured two teams in the NCAA tournament, of which, one advanced to the Sweet 16.

He will inherit a team that will return the team's top three scorers, Carlos Monroe, Paul Graham III and Carderro Nwoji, as well as 80% of the team's offense from 2007-2008 and 69% of the team's rebounding efforts. FAU returns seven scholarship players and signed three players during the November signing period.

A streaming video of the press conference will also be available following the event at www.fausports.com.
