Gregg Marshall (born February 27, 1963) is an American college basketball coach who currently leads the Wichita State Shockers men's basketball team of Wichita State University (WSU). He previously served as the head coach of the Winthrop Eagles men's basketball team of Winthrop University. Marshall has coached his teams to appearances in the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament in nine of the past fifteen seasons.

Early life and education

Marshall was born in Greenwood, South Carolina.[1] He went to Cave Spring High School in Roanoke, Virginia, where he graduated in 1981 and was a 6'2", 145-pound point guard on the Knights' basketball team. He graduated from Randolph–Macon College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in economics and business in 1985.[1] He was a brother of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. He later received his master's degree in sport management from the University of Richmond in 1987.[1]

Coaching career

Marshall spent two years (1985–87) as an assistant at his alma mater, Randolph-Macon College, in Ashland, Virginia, and another year as an assistant at Belmont Abbey College during the 1987–88 season.[2] He then spent eight years under John Kresse at the College of Charleston from 1988 to 1996, where the program received an at-large 1994 NCAA bid, and NIT invitations in 1995 and 1996.[2] He became an assistant coach at Marshall University, serving from 1996 to 1998.[2]

Marshall became the head coach at Winthrop University in 1998, and led the Winthrop Eagles men's basketball team to seven NCAA tournament appearances and transformed a previously undistinguished program into a mid-major powerhouse. In his first season at Winthrop in 1998–99, he compiled a record of 19–8 (9–1 in Big South Conference play), coaching the Eagles to their first regular season Big South title. They went on to win the Big South Conference Tournament, earning the Eagles their first-ever bid to the NCAA Tournament. As a No. 16 seed, the team lost to the No. 1 seed Auburn Tigers in the first round, 80–41.[3]

During his nine seasons at Winthrop, Marshall coached the team to six regular season titles (1999, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007), seven Big South Tournament titles (1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2007), six 20-win seasons (1999, 2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007), and was named Big South Coach of the Year four times (1999, 2003, 2005, 2007). In 2006, he became the all-time winningest coach in Winthrop men's basketball history.[1] During the 2006–07 season, Marshall became the first coach in the history of the Big South Conference to have his team go undefeated in conference play.

The 2006 NCAA Tournament matched No. 15 seed Winthrop against the No. 2 seed Tennessee Volunteers, the Southeastern Conference Eastern Division champion, in the first round. Winthrop led for much of the game, only to lose 63-61 on a long jump shot with 2.9 seconds remaining.[4] In 2007, Marshall became the first Big South coach to win an NCAA first round tournament game by defeating No. 6 seed Notre Dame.[5]

Marshall's success at the mid-major level created a lot of speculation that he could be a contender for the coaching position at North Carolina State University, which was vacated with the departure of Herb Sendek. Sidney Lowe, a former NC State player and former head coach of the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves and Memphis Grizzlies, was eventually named the head coach of the Wolfpack. Marshall accepted an offer to coach the College of Charleston in June 2006[6] but changed his mind after the press conference introducing him as coach and returned to Winthrop.[7]

Marshall accepted Wichita State University's offer to coach its Wichita State Shockers men's basketball team on April 14, 2007[8] In his fourth season at WSU, Marshall lead the Shockers to the NIT Championship, defeating Alabama in the finals.[9] Under Marshall, Wichita State broke into the AP Top 25 poll on February 13, 2012, the first time since December 25, 2006,[10] and only the second time since 1983.[11] In 2012, Wichita State made its first appearance in the NCAA tournament since the 2005–06 season, receiving an at-large bid.[12] The Shockers were matched as a No. 5 seed versus the No. 12 seed VCU Rams, but the Shockers lost 62–59.[12] In the 2012-2013 season, Marshall led the Shockers to their first Final Four since 1965, defeating the AP #1, #7, and #20 teams in the country to win the West Regional.

In 2013-14, Marshall led Wichita State to arguably the greatest season in school history. The Shockers steamrolled through the regular season, becoming the first Division I team to start a regular season with 30 consecutive wins (31-0). They rose as high as second in both major polls in late February, the highest that a Shocker team has been ranked since 1981. On March 9, 2014, Wichita State finished their regular season and the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament with a record of 34-0, heading into the NCAA Tournament undefeated. This 34-0 record ties a NCAA Division I Men's basketball record, held by the University of Nevada Las Vegas, set in 1991.
